They’re three little words that can mean the world:

I love you!

When should you say it a new relationship?

A new study set out to find out…and 60% said within six months or less.

You should meet your new partner’s family about three months in and take your first vacation together within a year…it’s also OK to move in together around the one-year mark.

You should pop the question within three years…and buy your first home by then.

And what about kids?

Two years topped this list…though 1 in 8 people said five years or more would be best.

Of course, we’re all on different timelines…what works best is what works for you!
