<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

We have been together for six months, I'm not saying I'm ready to settle down but that is the path I want to begin to take.

My prior experiences all stem from high-school. mainly a three year relationship, however i was never really happy or in it (long story but I had to work on myself and made good choices for myself like ending the relationship) So I really have no clue on how to start putting the right things into motion or if I even need to.

I am decent at dating and having the initial things do. Do I just keep this up? How do i get to a more serious level. we are still living separately and don't have an immediate plans to move in together.

I'd like advice on how to form a serious lasting relationship that is meaningful and important. I will take all criticism.
<bot>: I have no experience in serious monogamous relationships, How do I make it happen? Am I even asking the right question?
