Before Batman vs Superman: Man of Steel and a Lovely Lady

Superman and Lois Lane in The Man of Steel had a flirtationship. This undefined relationship without boundaries is built on trust and attraction. When Lois first meets Clark, she is trying to write a story about Superman, she knows it is him and chooses to trust him. When Lois chose to commit to Clark through keeping his secret their relationship truly begins. When he chooses to save her their relationship grows.

Their relationship, like every relationship, healthy, unhealthy, and special parts.

So what are they?

The Healthy:

- Superman and Mrs. Lane are both committed to the same values and have the same desires. They walk around Metropolis and work on making it a better place by fighting through the rough parts. Superman physically and Lois through reporting and working alongside the army to fight back.

- Their relationship has a bit of distance that allows both of them to partner together and grow alongside each other while still pursing their own strengths. Lois doesn't try to fly or be a superhero, instead she embraces the type of superhero she can be by using the gifts and talents that she possesses. 

The Unhealthy:

- Trust has not been earned. Their relationship is based on initial trust, without knowing anything about each other. Trust is one of the deepest parts of a relationship. You can only work with people who you trust. They trust each other, but does that mean that the trust is something they can rely upon? Lois is arrested by the FBI and puts everything on the line for a guy she doesn't really know.

- Where do they stand? Lois and Clark both have sent signals of affection but at no point did they establish boundaries. At the end of the movie, Lois rejects a coworker's date offer. Are Lois and Clark dating? No. Are they exclusive? Maybe? By not being on the same page someone will get hurt. Know where you stand.

Special Part:

- The deep founded trust and commitment may not be earned, but the fact that they can work together through whatever happens and protect each other is special. They work together and are always presented to be on the same page supporting each other. It is something truly special.
