The great understanding

In this second phase, you get to know each other better and better. You have evening-long conversations where you reveal a lot about yourself and listen to your partner with great interest. In this phase, everything comes out on the table: family, ex-partner, work ... Most people are never as open and honest in their relationship as they are now. Dopamine and serotonin are now replaced by oxytocin and vasopressin. The two "bonding hormones" give us a feeling of peace and security and ensure that the idea matures in our brains to commit to the other person permanently.

Typical phrase: "Yes, I understand that completely."
