Is it necessary to have a DTR conversation?

[Anonymous]

My friend and I were arguing about this. He said you should always DTR when you're sure you both like each other, but I'm like why ruin something that's working?

Do you have a DTR conversation with someone you want to have a relationship with? If so, who do you believe is the person responsible for initiating it and when?

Yes

No

I don't know

Yes, you do need to DTR, because if not, then you're just playing games. Communication is the number one thing in a relationship, and even though yes its working now, its not going to work well in the future if you can't even talk to each other and make sure you both are on the same page. Guessing games aren't fun, so being straight forward will make your life a lot easier. Plus, when you're straight forward and just ask questions like its no big deal, it comes off as you being confident, and thats going to make her 100 more attracted to you.

Thank you to wildwolfxoxo for telling me what DTR means lol and yes, you should be having that conversation. If everyone believes that the other is responsible for defining it then it'll never be defined. If you want to know - ask!

Abso-freakin-lutely. I have had that conversation, and it helped us get on the same page expectation wise, which helped us better serve each other in the areas we were looking for. I tend to initiate the conversation because I feel it's my responsibility to not play games with a girl, and to be open about my feelings for her.

If nothing physical is happening, then there should be a DTR conversation.
