Exclusivity Negotiated

How to complete Exclusivity Negotiated

This is the talk that turns assumptions into an agreement: are you exclusive, what counts as crossing a line, and where is this headed. Having it explicitly prevents the slow-motion hurt of two people quietly running on different terms.

1. Decide what you actually want before raising it so you negotiate from clarity, not panic
2. Open directly, for example 'I want to talk about where we stand,' rather than hinting
3. Cover the concrete points: dating others, deleting apps, and what exclusivity means to each of you
4. Name your dealbreakers and listen for theirs without rushing to a verdict

Tips

• Ask in person; this conversation reads badly over text
• Their hesitation is information, not necessarily rejection
• Revisit it later if circumstances change rather than treating it as one-and-done

What counts as done

Both of you have stated out loud and agreed on the relationship's exclusivity status and boundaries.
