Do you think we get so caught up in worrying if were still "in love", that
lose sight of what most important in the relationship?

I think its very important in the begining of a relationship to experience the 'in love' feelings. Those are what makes us have butterflies when we see/think/smell ect the other person. ALOT of people get wayyy too caught up in that feeling and when its gone they tend to move on..I truly believe that if you let go of that notion and give a relationship time the love you gain for a person will last for a long time. I have been married for a long time and I would say there are times when i am 'in love' with my husband and there are times when I am not. But there is one thing for sure..I deeply love my husband always.

Perhaps, from a certain point of view... but a relationship cannot be fashioned without "love" of some sort in the first place, wouldn't you agree? I think once a person starts to worry about being "in love" there is a problem with the love between those two people.

Early in a relationship, "being in love" is natural and expected. However, for the relationship to mature, besides being in love with one another, there must develop something deeper, love for one another. This love is something you just know with your knower, it is in your mind a well as embedded in your heart. It is not an emotion like being in love is. So when difficult times come, and times of doubt about what is really important in your relationship, you will always know in the heart and your mind that you love the other person, and you can overcome whatever problems you face with that deep love. "Being in love" can dissipate like fizz from a warm pop bottle that you've shaken, spilling on the ground. But you can't drag love out of your heart or mind. So, no, being in love matters little, so long as you have developed love within you.

Love incompasses many areas of a relationship. If you get along well, reason with one another are each others best friend and mentor.Then, why worry?
People go in search of Love, and never really experince the finer points of a good relationship.
Don't beat yourself up over it either.
injoy what you have, love if it is there will come later, or already has.

being in love is easy to say.. .staying in love is harder to do.. it is like a fine rose you must water it to keep it alive.. and yes love is a good quality to have in a lasting relationship.. many factors make up a relationship but love is the best one.... Even in the Bible it speaks often of love ... there are many different kinds ... but "being in love " is key to a good relationship

I think being "in love" truly matters in a relationship because it is what keeps your marriage alive.

Three things make a relationship -- Admiration, Respect, and Passion. two of the three will keep it together just fine. We stay in relationships longest with those with whom we have lots in common--- common backgrounds, histories, wishes, interests, hobbies.

I think love IS the most important thing in a relastionship.....
With real LOVE; you can get through all of the other stuff........
Agree to disagree --- and respect each others opinion, likes, dislikes.......etc.......
LOVE is what makes it work.
