Does Love remain Hot only when you are still Chasing for it?

Human nature has left me think deeply to myself lately-when you are in pursuit of the love of your life-you do it with amazing aggression and passion-once you land you hand on him/her and get to the carnal knowlege zones, you seem to have the feeling of "I have arrived" and slowly love beomes luke-warm and for some people almost extiguished within a year of marriage-Does getting to consumate love spell doom for that love itself?

Well...sort of. That's why divorced always happen. Person can have up to five wives or husbands in their. I just wonder why most of the marriages doesn't last long? The challenge has already been conquered. Time for another prey.

i really need to know what is your defination about LOVE mentioned above. If its something that can die down with time...i wouldnt call it love but rather a crush, infatuation or simply lust. love in my sense is not something that should die down with time or as u mentioned " once you land your hand on" . love in its true sense has its roots deep into the heart of the lover and everything except God is effaced in front of your lover. Consummate love what you mentioned above is ideally the complete form of love which combines intamacy, passion and commitment. It represents an ideal relationship towards which people strive and is always associated with a perfect couple. i am really proud that i have been in love for the last 18 yrs now (childhood love u can say) and i still love my wife as much or maybe even more than what i did when i first fell in love. i always pray to God for our love to last forever.

I am glad when I got him. Then I am happy. I hate the competition especially when the other girls were so much better looking and more talented than I was. And when they all were nurses and teachers so that if he got sick there would be no problem. and if there were kids, I could handle the school stuff. But me, I was just an office clerk and I felt that had I been a nurse or a teacher, my choices would have been better. well I am married, and so I do not have to go chasing anymore.

I have a philosophy on this subject. The first couple of months are wonderful. Full of hot, steamy, passion. Once it is consumated its all down hill from there. There's nothing for them to look forward to. For the remainder of the first year things are shaky. There are many ups and downs once the newness wears off and you begin to hear about exes and kids and money issues. If you are still together at the end of a year, you just may make it past those stupid issues that every one has. THere are exceptions as well. You may meet the man or woman of your dreams and instead of ups and downs you put the cards on the table from the start. All you have to do is create more steamy, fantasy for just the two of you. Thats how I see it. Hope its not too crazy. dl.
