keeping the love alive...

I have been in love with the same person for almost three years. Our love was happy, crazy and bold. It still is right now but not with the same intensity as before. He always says people change, situations change, priorities change and that "change is the only constant thing in the world." Everytime he says that, I just want to cover my ears. It's not that I don't believe it, I just have this spot in my heart that didn't want to accept it. I am still very much in love with him now but sometimes, when we hardly see each other and he comes from work, grumpy, it makes me feel so down. How could he say those, when I, myself, haven't changed a bit... Or have I? How can we be what we were before? I try my very best to make it up to him. I often sacrifice a lot of time so we can be together but, sometimes, I just can't stop myself from thinking that I'm the last thing on his priority list. How do we keep our love alive? The old age question.

You are not alone in this area. As the time goes by priorities come up. It will never be the same anymore because of pressures when you are already living together. It needs a lot of understanding and cooperation in our side as wife or partner. I understand how you feel. You are now in the reality of life. You have to face it bravely. Communication play best in a relationship. I feel that same way sometimes when my husband comes home with a deep sigh.. and yes grumpy.. I understand that it is work related issues and it has nothing to do with me. But of course we are affected and felt neglected but we have to understand the situation. He needs our support and not our complains why he acted that way. Just show to him that you remains the same as before and he could never find someone like you. Just be kind still and sweet to him. He will really miss that. Good luck girl...
