Four Stages of Love: Connecting, Chemistry, Compatibility, and Character

The first step of love is connecting to yourself. That is preparing for love. The second step of love is chemistry. Now you feel some attraction, some connection with someone else. That is practicing love. Now, the third is when you start moving into compatibility mode. Are we actually compatible? We have some chemistry, but are we compatible? And once we’re compatible, the final stage is character. Do we actually understand and love each other’s character? Because character is what’s gonna see it through. Chemistry starts a relationship, character gets it there. And I think often what we try and do is we try and stretch chemistry as far as it can go.
