In this video, we dive into the idea of the “relationship escalator” — the default path many people expect relationships to follow, like becoming exclusive, moving in together, getting married, and more. Coined by Amy Gahran, the term calls out how these expectations can make us feel like something’s wrong if our relationships don’t follow that script.
If you’ve ever felt pressure to make a relationship “go somewhere,” this video is for you. Watch now to explore what it might look like to step off the escalator and create relationships that actually work for you.
