If you're already in a relationship, you might be wondering if there are aspects of your romance that point to maturity and longevity. There sure are, and they aren't hard to look for. Here are 11 signs you're in a grown-ass relationship that will last, backed by research.
1. You Can Go For Hours Without Checking In
No matter how much you love each other and love spending time together, you both need a solid dose of independence in order to have a healthy, grown-ass relationship. That means you can do your own thing all day long without feeling like you have to text or call to let your SO know what you've been up to.
Experts say that one of the most common traits of insecure partners is that they want to know as much as possible about who you're seeing and what you're doing. If this sounds foreign to you, you're probably in a really good place. Let each other enjoy your own lives, and you'll go the distance.
