Are deadlines healthy or damaging to relationships?

I think they're healthy if the deadline is to solve any problem or to take immediate action over anything
damaging
I don't really agree with Jessica when she says they are mostly harmful. These deadlines forge you to grow up and together faster. We had deadlines to force us to ponder the pros and cons of our relationship. Sometimes it puts pressure and it is difficult at the moment, but when you ask yourselves the right questions straight away, you know if it is meant to last or not. We went through a lot together and we are stronger than ever, thanks to all our constraints as well.
Deadlines in a relationship? I have deadlines at work... I'm going to go with damaging. I think whatever might be "due" should just feel that it's due. lol
Nope, pushing issues and created unnecessary stress in a relationship is a good way to push the other person away.

It depends on what the deadlines are for
A veces son buenos para poner en claro tus emociones .... Pero si los usas para retrasar lo inevitable son obviamente dañinos.
General timeframes are probably healthy, but it also depends on what it is.
I thing deadlines are negative. So damaging. I would not like to have with you.
damage because if i give a deadline to husband he never do it so it just creates a monster inside me and he never know it always think everything is okay
Buenos y malos
damaging, things come up and that can result in fights or breakups in the long run

un paso a la vez no me gusta ni planear por que algo pasa y cambio todo
Im unsure, they can be helpful to one partner and upset the other. I think they are nice to at least talk about to see if you have a future with the person. Im not sure that he thinks the same though. He dislikes deadlines which makes me feel bad. I don't want to put any pressure on him but at the same time I know what I want out of a relationship
damaging xD MBA 😅
Ahahaha you got dis 🙌🏼
