A relationship (married or not) is something that both people have to work very hard at it. Why would a piece of paper and a ring make any difference? I've been married for 7 years and we still kiss, hold hands, cuddle etc.. In fact it's better than when we were just bf/gf. Like everything else, it is up to you both to let it die or not.
Good luck with your plans.

Married life has it's ups & downs, but my husband & I still do all of that. He also sleeps on the side of the bed closest to the door (whether it's our bedroom or a hotel room)and walks on the sidewalk closest to the street as a "protection" thing. Set a "date night" and KEEP it. PLAN time together and don't let anything or anyone interrupt. MAKE SURE HE KNOWS THAT MARRIAGE MEANS HE CUTS THE APRON STRINGS FROM "MOMMY" because he won't be her little boy anymore, he'll be YOUR HUSBAND. A successful marriage takes mutual committment, support, sacrifice, and LOTS of hard work. If you're going to take vows "for better or worse", you need to realize that the honeymoon will NOT last forever and "worse" WILL come along, so be sure you love him enough to stand by him NO MATTER WHAT. Go to counseling before you get married so that you know whether or not you're both on the same page regarding what you EXPECT from a marriage and what you want out of life. Do you have similar goals? Similar views on child-rearing? Play out all of the "what - if" situations you can think of, and be HONEST about the answers.

Its common that that does happen, but it certainly doesn't have to! You've been together for some time, which obviously means something. So if you want to keep the spark alive you need to do certain things. For example, take trips/vacations more often than not... play "games" to keep the excitement...dress up...go out... Things that couples do in the beginning of the relationship is what may keep in going.. don't just assume that you've been together for so long that you don't HAVE to french kiss or hold hands...you are very much together as you were in the beginning... Good luck!

What happens before and after is just up to you two.

Is true that people start getting used to things, and taking them fro granted, but if you two agree to help each other instead of fight when something like that happens, then it should be fine. Those things can be like grabbing each other’s hands, or him bringing flowers, or you dressing sexy for the night… anything.

It is up to the couple to keep that spark. I know it. Trust me. My Wife and I have had good and bad times, but we always keep that flame alive, and we cannot be happier than what we are today… unless we win a lottery… LOL.

To us, marriage was juts a signature in a paper. We were living together, and nothing changed after we got married, still we can always say we got married the day we moved together. No difference.

For us guys is hard to be romantic most of the times, and you girls are usually forgetting the fact that you need to stay sexy for us. So keep that in mind and act accordingly.

Good luck and congrats!!

No! If you've married the right "one" - it does the opposite from dying out - it deepens & grows as the years pass. Marriage requires work (some ppl take that to mean like ditch diggin' - hard work to make it work....those that make such references are usually divorced or unhappily married!) By "work on" it means simply "being good to each other - 50/50 - COMMUNICATION - remembering what it was that brought you together in the first place - being thankful for your partner - putting your relationship first..." Holding hands, kissing, etc. the intimacy, courtship rituals that we all enjoy when dating evolve over a period of years. .. b/c the trust level deepens...your loyalty deepens, etc...We've been married 15 years & my hubby still "courts me"... I knew i loved him & found him sexy & desireable when we married - but i love him more today & i find him all the more irrisistable.

Only if you allow it to. There are people who have been married 20 years or more that still hold hands and french kiss. You just have to keep it in your relationship or it will fade away.

only if you let it. My wife and I flirt and do all that stuff still and I see no signs of letting up. Make sure that no matter what is going on in life you make time for the 2 of you. We have 5 kids and we make going out on a real date with each other once a month a priority. No you do not have to lose it you have to work to keep it up. good luck and congratulations.

it might do, it might not, but dont hang on to little things

from this ast stage u'll grow into something more deep and meaningful together, which is precious! maybe u wont hold hands but u might only look at each other and understand what u want to say, u might not kiss anymore, but having the feeling of having someone close to ur heart forever may replace that kissing :)
just concentrate on other things that start to grow rather than on those that start to fade

It lasts for as long as you both want it to.
Once youre married the thrill may wear off a bit cos you find yourself focusing on the boring everyday stuff like paying bills, washing up etc. But you can keep the romance alive if you both work at it.

It will only fade away if you are not right for each other. But it us up to you both to keep it going. As for French kissing dying out I doubt it that is how I always kiss my wife so it should never die out,
