    I haven't written many stories with established relationships, but recently I've found that they're pretty fun to write.

    i saw sparks:
    I pretty much only write established relationships these days because I'm more interested in the day-to-day workings of a relationship than how people get together. When it all boils down to it, most couples get together in similar ways, and especially if I know these characters are going to eventually become a couple, it's boring as hell for me to read.

    I like reading and writing about characters that are in a relatively stable point in their relationship because I feel like you get a better glimpse of who these people are as individuals and how they come together as a couple when things are calm as opposed to in the beginning of a relationship (when you're just trying to impress the other person) or conflict during a relationship.
    This still very much holds true for me. With just about everything that I write, that relationship is already established in some way, even if it has yet to become romantic. I have close to three hundred pieces posted and countless WIPs, and I can only think of one story in which the two leads actually meet at the beginning of the story. In everything else, even if they aren't officially a couple, there's still a friendship or, at the very least, an acquaintance.

    The whole boy-meets-girl thing is so friggin' boring for me to read, and writing it would be even worse.

    I write a mix of both. My favorite story is about a couple who has been together for years at the start of the story, and my newest story involves a couple who is just meeting. I think there are interesting and exciting things about both scenarios, which is why I like to write and explore both.

    For my current project, I kinda doing an "it's complicated" situation. Like there's a sort of already established relationship, but one party is trying to end things and his attempts are destined to fail (his reasoning for ending things is flawed and such), so it's like part of the story is almost non-established, like "will they stay established" and then the rest is like "established pairing."
    I explained that poorly. Shifty Regardless, it is rather interesting and at times fun to write.
    And, of course, all the other relationships in the story are established because that's what I like to do.

    My stories are usually chock full of established relationships mother-daughter, father-daughter, friend-friend and I go an add in another character and work through how they relate to the existing characters and relationships.

    Whether you're in an established or unestablished relationship, communication is key. Make sure to have open and honest conversations with your partner about the nature of your relationship and what you both want. If you're single and searching for a partner, online dating services like searching for singles review can be a great way to connect with others who share your interests and goals. Remember to keep an open mind and be honest about your intentions.
