love evolves in different stages when you stick to the same person for the rest of your life...
first stage is when you see the girl of your dreams and you court her, you have a bf and gf relationship and you feel that that person is your whole universe and you cant imagine life without her....
second stage is when you are still with the same girl, you get married, settle down, have a family, tackle the responsibilities of marriage and parenthood....this part gets pretty challenging...
third stage is when you've been married for a long time and there are even moments when you feel that your partner is taking you for granted...there is very little excitement and life seems a little bit boring...some feel the romance is no longer there...love has evolved into companionship....but actually married life doesnt have to be boring or monotonous...it is up to the people involved to bring back the spark in their marriage...they can both take up a new hobby or sport that they can both enjoy...they can still go out on dates...but couples who have this kind of love is very lucky....it means that their relationship has stood strong despite all the problems that they have encountered in life...

Spontaneity. Thats what keeps things alive and kicking. Doing new things is a good way to keep a healthy flow in a relationship. Especially in such a long term one. When the times right, and if it's fitting, do something you haven't done in a long time.
Honestly, nothings ever the same once you've experienced it. It will be at least slightly different each time. It's more important to remember what made it so great the first time around. Cherish that, instead of trying to recreate it. It'll form all it's own when you do that. Most importantly, don't forget to be patient, and enjoy things as they come.
Cheers, I hope this helps a bit.

It will be different...and hopefully in a good way! Your attachment to the person will grow. Your affection as well. The hot, passionate part will melt into something more tender and soothing. The "love" will become one of more trust and deep intimacy than infatuation and fascination of new love.
However, realistically it is hard to get to this. Relationships take constant attentiveness to the "little details" (taking time each day to just bond, share a little story or meal, predict and fulfill each other's needs, keep up the communication, etc.) and it's so easy, in the whirlwind of modern life to drift before we even know it's happening.
To "make it more," just keep that bond alive and healthy. Take the time to really BE together, even if it isn't/can't be a long time each day. Take the time to connect, see what's really happening in each other's lives, and know what is important to each other. And none is truer in love than "the little things mean a lot." Even just taking the time in the morning and perhaps in the eve before bed to give a sincere kiss/hug and "I love you," can do wonders.

Take it one day at a time. Don't try to rush it, or it will never work out. True and deep love can only grow with time, patience, and trust.

everyday is a day of choices.. if you want to stick with that person with the rest of your life, you have to work it by yourself and also she should show you how much she loves you also..
love is more of giving...
