to see each other's imperfections along with their strengths. Are there some of you out there for whom the rosy glow has never worn off? I don't mean love turning to hate, just love becoming a more practical manifestation of attraction. One where you know that the charming prince and the demure maiden exist only in fairy tales. But it is nice to dream.

First let me say.......I'm that person that still believes in the fairy tale. Prince Charming does exist out there.....in many forms. And if I didn't believe that, then I'm sure I would have withdrawn into myself and stopped making friends long ago.

Secondly......When I meet someone and start dating and they are "perfection, " well that's a major red flag to me and I usually shy away from the "perfect people." I adore the fallable side of all people. It means they are human. So strange as it may seem, I start off looking for the little imperfections that make us who we are. Oddly enough, I'm the same way about furniture. No, I'm not comparing a potential date to an easy chair.......but I am saying that I never buy brand new furniture. It is too perfect and therefore "plastic" no matter how wonderful the grade of wood is. I go looking for the antique with scars and scratches and dents that give it character and personality. I am the same way with people. Its our scars and scratches that make us who we are........that give us those life lessons that help us on the next go round.

If you refer to my answer on "failed relationships" you will see that I have learned a life lesson and now don't "start dating someone" until I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly. That's when the rosy glow starts. It tends to remain without fading because of the base that was formed in the relationship prior to the "glow." I think this is true for most people that know their "love" inside out.

probably after about a year the newness wears off, but if it is true love it will never die out.........you may go a week or more without feeling much then wham! an intense feeling of love will come and it is great!

The second you decide he is the one for you. Better yet, the moment your family meets with him and he entirely meets with their approval. There has to be something wrong with someone who, upon first meeting your parents, becomes closer with them than you are.
