If you’ve reached the five-month mark in your relationship, chances are that you already break wind in front of each other, you’ve stopped the regular ritual of shaving, ditched the diet and quit the gym – according to new research.
 
Data by Provident shows exactly how many months it takes Brit’s to reach certain relationship milestones.
 
One of the first things couple’s do when they are in love, is introduce their other half to their friends, while it takes almost three months for women to go completely bare faced.

Are British couples now less trusting than they used to be?

18-24-year olds are texting their partners more than seven times a day and social media is becoming a huge part of their relationships.

Last year, couples confessed to getting phone, laptop and social media profile passwords after seven months of dating.
 
Let's have a look at the rest of the results...

Yvonne Filler, relationship expert at The Affair Clinic, said: “We would always caveat any statistic with the understanding that every relationship is different. 

"No-one has the 'average' relationship, and nothing is 'normal', it is whatever works for each couple. However, the big milestones, meeting parents, moving in and having a baby seem to reflect what we expect in terms of order, but timescales vary wildly.”
