Welcome to the Dating in Your 20s series, hosted by Lilly Wehman and Amelia Abernathy from Millennium Counseling Center. In this episode, Lilly and Amelia shift from external relationship timelines to the internal milestones that define a romance. From saying “I love you” to meeting family or sharing vulnerabilities, they explore how these markers reflect personal values and connection, not societal checklists. Drawing from their own experiences and client insights, they emphasize communication, resisting comparison, and redefining success to fit your unique journey.

• 
  
• Milestone myths: Beyond rigid rules like meeting family or going exclusive.
  
• Personal stakes: Lilly’s family focus vs. Amelia’s small-town shift.
  
• Connection cues: Vulnerability as a milestone, from movie nights to big invites.
  
• Reframing goals: Success isn’t one-size-fits-all—find what fits your partnership.
