I will freely admit that I am a little old-school here, but my ideal preference (for me in my own personal case; I'm not judging anyone else negatively here if they believe differently of course) is:
1. dating
2. long-term style relationship only (a.k.a. courtship)
3. engagement
4. marriage
5. physical intimacy
6. children
4)living together
5)meeting family
6)ceremonies and registrations...
7)financial co dependence
8)children
9)retirement home
10)enjoy each other until we pass on.
1. Dating
2. Sex
3. Relationship until it's no longer working (life's too short for stupid stuff)
4. Shake hands and part ways; no hard feelings
5. Take some time off to "enjoy my freedom"
6. Find my next Boo while enjoying my freedom
7. Repeat steps 1 thru 6 (work smarter, not harder )

Hows that work for you. Sounds good, but the break is never that clean
Never had engagement period and will never have children - this one is not my choice. It was my worthless piece of sh-it's husband's choice.
Why are you still with him?
