there's the you that you show at first: the best impression you can muster up. best clothes, best jokes, best behavvior don't talk about the childhood traumas, etc etc. if you pass that stage (after 2 months or so, the equivalent of 12 dates approx, which incidentally, i am told is the appropriate time to sleep with said partne)....then the 'truth' comes out. you've got to be yourself sometime for the relationship to progress....try this for 2-4 more months, have your first 'issues' and fights....when you get to 6-8 months then i think you can start thinking of it as a partnership.
