Cupid’s Advice:
Navigating the rocky waters of the dating scene can definitely be challenging and once you’ve found someone, you won’t want to let go! If you’re debating whether or not to go public with your new relationship, Cupid has some advice for you:
1. Listen to your partner: There are two people in your relationship and you always have to remember that. Even though you may have strong feelings towards a certain subject, your partner’s opinions should be taken into account as well. Allow them to share their thoughts on publicizing your relationship or keeping it under wraps so the two of you are on the same page. If you are still exploring each other and your emotions, that’s definitely a reason to keep it private.

2. Think about the family: Take a new relationship slowly and move at your own pace. If you’re not ready to share your relationship with your family, that is okay! Maybe they weren’t too fond of your ex and that’s left you wary of introducing them to someone new. Or they can be a bit overprotective and might scare off a new partner. Whatever the case may be, remember this is your life and you make the decisions.

3. Not ready for the friends: Aside from family, your friends are probably the most important people in your life. Introducing them to someone new is a big step step for everyone! At the end of the day, all they want is for you to be happy and feeling loved, but sometimes gaining their approval is quite the feat. Avoiding judgement or potentially disapproving friends are definitely reasons to keep your relationship a secret for a while.
