The holidays ask you one question. Where are you on it?

Breakups spike in November because the holidays force one question: do I bring someone home or not? Ending things is the easy way to dodge it.

Already answered. We're doing the holidays together, no debate.I answered it by ending things a few weeks ago.Still avoiding it. It's sitting there, completely unanswered.Doesn't apply to me yet. It's brand new, or there's nobody specific.

Picture Thanksgiving. Who are you bringing?

Not a hypothetical seat at the table. An actual one, with a name next to it.

Someone my family's already asking about — what they eat, not whether they're coming.No one. That's basically what ended it.There's someone I could bring. Nobody's said it out loud, me included.No one. There's nobody to picture in that seat yet.

When holiday logistics came up — who's going where — what did you do?

That conversation usually just confirms what both people already knew.

Made the plan together, no drama, like it was obvious.Went quiet. Shortly after, it was over.Dodged it. So did they. Neither of us will raise it.Nothing to plan around yet, so it never came up.

Where are you on introducing someone to your family?

The conversation the holidays force, ready or not.

Done, and it went fine. It's a plan now, not a conversation.Never got there. The “do I have to” question answered itself.Haven't brought it up, and neither has anyone else.Nothing to introduce yet.
