long-term-relationships

A human is the one, who would give up a thousand Cleopatras to be with the person he or she loves.

When two people fall in love, they not only give up their genuine authority over their own lives, but also, they become mutual authorities of the collective life that they build together.

Try to respond to your partner instead of reacting.

Monogamy is not a choice, it is a responsibility of a genuine human.

Marriage is not a competition. Marriage is completion of two souls.

True love is born out of the pyre of two committed souls.

Do not seek for the best partner, but seek for the person who makes you a better version of yourself.

A healthy world is made of healthy nations. A healthy nation is made of healthy families. And a healthy family can only be raised on the foundation of a monogamous relationship.

Two married partners do not just live with each other, they live in each other, neurologically speaking.

Cheating in relationship is a sign of self-regulation failure. When it happens ones, it is a mistake. When it happens twice, it is unfortunate. But when it happens thrice or more, it is a pattern indicating primitive, uncivilized inhuman behavior.

Sex becomes less and less pleasurable in a relationship over time. Your brain gets habituated to the sensual stimulation from your specific partner as you are exposed to it repeatedly. It doesn__ mean that the love is gone from the relationship. Love still exists beyond the barriers of time, in the form of attachment, which becomes independent of sexual intimacy after the euphoric stage of mad love.

Find and foster your Passions in life! People who are passionate about what they do are in alignment with Spirit and become magnetic to those around them. This also applies to those already in long-term relationships. How do you keep the love and intimacy alive? Keep your personal Passions alive and the rest will fall into place. We can__ share passions with others unless we first have it within ourselves.

Some of the freckles I once loved are now closer to liver spots. But it__ still the eyes we look at, isn__ it? That__ where we found the other person, and find them still.

I think the tingles are important. They are real, and I am in favor of their survival. But they are not the basis for a satisfactory marriage. I am not suggesting that on should marry without the tingles. Those warm, excited feelings, the chill bumps, that sense of acceptance, the excitement of the touch that make up the tingles serve as the cherry on top of the sundae. But you cannot have a sundae with only the cherry.
