Its totally indvidual. I have been dating a guy since the beginning of Septemeber. We went on a four day trip (plane, hotel, 500+ miles) right before halloween. We spent thanksgiving day together. (I then left on friday and spent the weekend with my family in a different state). We went to his parents home in a different state for christmas. We hosted a low key party for New Year's day.
we clicked on our first meet. We met at a coffee shop and spent 2.5 hours..he walked me to my car and made plans for later that evening...sometimes you just know. We also know how and when to give each other space. (that has been the most difficult challange as we both have very different comfort levels but communication and clarification has been the key)
My guess is that this varies from couple to couple, person to person.
I was with my boyfriend for 4 months and we didn't do the holidays together...well, we did NYE but that's it. (this was last year)
I'm anxious to hear what everyone else has to say about it. I bet you'll get a lot of different answers.
