8 Stages Of Every Relationship As Told By Your Food

4. The Chocolate Stage

In the Chocolate stage, you might be eating your feelings or consuming some "I'm sorry" sweets. Typically, you can't go wrong with chocolate (we've all had enough intimate binge-eating sessions to believe that). However, in regards to a relationship, The Chocolate Stage symbolises some turmoil. While eating, you feel great; you're on that chocolate-wasted high. But, when everything is said and done, you're left with empty candy wrappers and regret. The spicy make-ups become less common, and problems you pushed aside before come back to haunt you. This stage can be tough, but you aren't ready to swear off chocolate altogether and call it quits - hell, you may never be.
