Nowadays most young couples avoid discussion about what their relationship really entails. For some, that works, but this can be a gateway drug (much like marijuana) to worries, issues with commitment, and “having to forgive them for sleeping with your best friend because you never clearly discussed the rules of your relationship”.

The purpose of this document is to make the rules of any basic relationship crystal clear for both sides, resulting in a comfortable, mutual love-fest where you know exactly how committed you both are.
