remember when you started your relationship with your significant other, and felt the need to make out all the time,
and your heart would flutter, you had butterflies in your stomach, you'd write letters to each other....................
is it still there?>>??
if not, don't you wish it was still there>>??
what can you do to feel that way again???

No it is not still there and no I don't wish it was. Each part of your life has a reason and it can't last for ever. But then you go to the next faze of your life and it gets better and better. It is a different kind of love, much deeper, and stronger. The longer you are with someone the better it gets, why would you want to go back. Enjoy the ride as it happens!

If you are with the right person you'll still feel a magnetism for them even after years of being together. It might not always be as intense as it was at first, because this would interfere with other activities in your life, but you should still feel that instant attraction whenever you see your mate or something is wrong. Real love is like when you see a really old couple holding hands. They might not be making out, but you can definitely see the love they share. That's the way a marriage should be.

I think there is still passion but it's more of an intimate one.. the passion to share stuff and have life experiences, blah blah blah.
Yes, I seriously miss the make out sessions, the dating, the being grabbed as soon as we saw each other again... My heart flutters in a different way too.. it's grown-up love... lol

Love changes constantly babe. It can start out with lust and if you are lucky it changes to something much more significant.
Not the 'I cant wait to get into his pants' but 'I cant think of life without him'. and that has NOTHING to do with sex but all to do with life.
Ive been married 22 1/2 years. We dont jump into each others pants but we cant stand not to see each other. If one of us is gone for a few hours the other just cant wait for that one to come back home.
We have a need for each other that has nothing to do with sex, butterflies in the tummy and fluttering hearts.
Its L O V E pure and simple

yes.. after 8 years we are still feel excitement when see each other at lunch (one a month) or after work daily. The sex drive is different now, but we focus on different things in life which fulfill our happiness and feelings for each other. We both travel and spend times apart a few times a year. That makes the looking forward to each other a lot more intense.

It is still sort of there, but just not at the present. We are fighting over my dog, but usually it is all still pretty strong. I wish we could just get over the dog issue and lose the tension. But I think you always have to keep things different and not routine, Routine causes boredom and that leads to the loss of passion. You have to try new things in the relationship and keep it spicy.

I don't think our bodies could function like that for an extended period of time. Our heart rate increases and we can't think of anything else! My husband still gives me butterflies sometimes, but we have both come back to Earth since the beginning.

Im 49 years old and 4 years ago I met a man who walked into my office and I fell head over heals in love with him. I was so scared I felt like a school girl with a crush. I wanted to give him my phone number and so I put it on a piece of paper and handed it to him. I said " Are you married ? He said no. To this day he rocks my world every time we get together. He still gets to me and its awesome.

If people don't continually work at their relationships and keep love alive, things will change. There are so many distractions which take a toll on good relationships through out the years.
Once the feelings are gone, there is very little you can do about it.

Its still there but not as often. It wouldnt be reasonable to expect the excitement to last at the same level forever. There are days that are just like the first ones and then there are days that are not as passionate. Its still wonderful though
