Answer:

Even without the options, it is possible to answer this question due to the description provided. Max and Andi are at the integrating stage of a relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Mark Knapp, there are five stages when it comes to relationship development: initiation, experimentation, intensifying, integration, and bonding. Again, these refer to the development. There are different stages for when a relationship deteriorates.

Integration is the stage where Max and Andi are at the moment. At this stage of relationship, the partners begin to become more involved in each other's social network. They also begin to arrange their lives and schedules to accommodate each other, spending a lot of time together. At this stage, it is also common for partners to think of their relationship as special, even unique.
