Is it possible to love the same pesron your whole life or is it just that you are used to them?

Answer 1

IVE LOVED THE SAME MAN FOR ALMOST 30 YRS AND YET THERE ARE THINGS HE DOES THAT I WILL NEVER GET USE TO LIKE FORTING IN THE LIVING ROOM EVEN IF ITS JUST US THAT S JUST RUDE!1 BUT I LOVE HIM

Answer 2

Well...it's a bit difficult to explain as it's impossible for both reasons.
First of all u never stay in love with ur life partner all ur life and u never can live with him/her only because u are used to them.
It's a different love... people can't realise the difference sometimes. it's not a young love, it's a love that never jealous, trusts all the time, gives u ur own freedom, space, u love not with ur heart /like when u fall in love/ but u love with ur brain, it's more mature love...it's very different than the young love :)
It's like more memory, physical, spiritual connection between u both. All the things u sow together, feel together, have together, all difficulties and happiness u had together and more and more... makes u both be so close to each other that makes u WHOLE and u can't live if u r not complete, if u r not together. U become oxygen for each other. U think about the partner even if u don't want to, u r connected to him/her even if u think u r not.

I don't know if u got something I told, but that's the way I understand from my own life!

Answer 3

Both.

Love begins with a chemical reaction in your body that releases compounds very much like opiates. So, in the beginning, when you are "high on love", you really are high. Eventually, your body and brain get used to these chemicals in your blood stream and become resistant to them, as a result, your body stops producing them. When people talk about the "love being gone", this is usually what they refer to.

Since there is no high anymore, what persuades people to continue with the relationship? The answer is familiarity. You know the person for several years, been through good and bad together, and as a result, feel safe with them. So, the relationship continues.

Some people must have the chemical love continue. While no studies have been conducted on this, I believe that these are the people who cheat and divorce (usually, not always) - they desire that chemical high again.

So, you can be with a person because of a chemical release, or because you feel safe with them. To answer your question, it depends on how you define love - is love being "safe", or is it something else?

I suppose that is the real question.

Answer 4

I think that first of all should be said that love is how you accept the other person, the way it is, and be in love can fade ´cause sometimes you may think the other person is perfect, but perfection doen´st exist, sounds very simple , but is really hard to run it...
Yes you can love the same person for your whole life...

Answer 5

I would have to agree with the Big Super's answer this is direct and real. I know exactly how he feels because I have been through that and more with my wife of 8yrs. But really the question you should ask yourself is what you think love means.

Answer 6

Love and infatuation are two entirely different things. Love is not a rapid heart beat or butterflies in your stomach. Giddiness and thrills fade away with time.

Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Answer 7

Yes it's possible to love the same person. And of course, you are used to them, but it doesn't mean that you aren't in love with the person you are used to.
