Dear All,
The above question has been asked for the nth time already, &
I'm frankly getting quite impatient after answering for the (n-1)th
time:
YES IT DOES.
Love is Not just about all the explosive moments of courtship. Love
is far deeper than that. With time, the sparks may die down
(there'll still be some sparks, of course), but therein lies a
wonderful & solid friendship, companionship, care & love,
that is less frivolous than the honeymoon period. It is stable, it
is rich, it is fulfilling.
Love is about finally taking off those rose-tinted glasses after
the honeymoon period, & finding the flaws in each other. Yet,
after finding the flaws in the partner, we put the rose-tinted
glasses back on anyway. Love is about arguing so that we know each
other on a deeper level, yet being able to forgive each other &
love each other more for being different & unique.
My guy & I don't have a perfect relationship, we have our ups
& downs. We got past the honeymoon period, we got past the
taking off of the rose-tinted glasses. Most importantly, we put
those rose-tinted glasses back on.
Knowing how cherished I am gives me the confidence to face the
world. Knowing how treasured I am makes me feel the most beautiful
woman alive.
Knowing he loves me makes me feel like the luckiest woman on
earth.
To those of you who doubt, it may be because you have Not felt...
But I have... I've loved, & been loved, & I'm still loved
& being loved...
And that, is the best feeling in the world to me.
