Not any singular and specific ones, no. What is "successful" depends on each individual. Some people may define a successful relationship as having an enjoyable evening, others aren't happy with a relationship unless it has serious marriage potential with a desire for offspring as part of the deal.
Now, based on LuckyStar's followup posts, she clearly wants a sustained romantic dating relationship with her boyfriend, who she has a strong sexual attraction to. The problem is: that is a process, not a product. It doesn't tell me what her goals are within the scope of the relationship. Thus, the question is, what does she want out of it and, just as importantly, what does
he want out of it and in what kind of timeframe do these desires track.
