Why This Talk Matters

Ambiguity feels safe. Defining the relationship feels risky. But undefined relationships cause more anxiety than defined ones, because both people run on assumptions that may not match. One person thinks you are exclusive. The other thinks you are still exploring.

This is not about pressuring someone into commitment. It is about aligning expectations. If you want different things, it is better to know now than after investing months into a relationship built on mismatched assumptions.
