how long into a new relationship does the passion start to die?

Question

how long does the initial passion/crazy feeling last in a new relationship? and what is replacing that feeling?

Answer 1

I still have that passionate in love with my husband feeling five years later. I think some couples naturally know how to keep it alive. Other relationships die out in 3 months.

Answer 2

IF your in a real relationship in my opinion the passion never dies , I know even with my 2nd husband seeing him walk round in his tight jeans , abs tight , arm muscles tight , and his shoulder muscles tensing up I still drool , we're seperated .

The start of a new relationship has the lust lasting usually about 9 to 15 month's if there arent to many stress issues like money , kid's , ex partners so on and so forth.

By the 2nd year your still lusting , but you have more admiration and pride in your chosen partner.

When you reach the 3 year mark , your lust is fading into comfortability , you respect your spouse more and the honour and pride of knowing they are yours needs to be shown more in public then before .Your devotion to your spouse has set in about this time.
By the 4th year it's love and I mean true blown full love.A lot of people confuse lust with love and thats what they base their feelings and emotions on.

Love is about committment , trust , honesty , loyalty , devotion , admiration , the ability to be true to the spouse chosen without 2nd guessing or wondering what if.Love is about the comfortability and acceptance of life as it bring's you peace and happiness and harmony , it's about not feeling the need to get fine jewelry , cars , boats , houses , or going out for romantic dinner's that cost more then the couch you sit on at home to eat pizza.
Love is about accepting one's flaws and mistake's and being able to forgive .Love is about alot of thing's , but only love grown from true faith in the belief of love can bring everything I have listed.

Unfortunetly in today's society couple's never reach this level of love.If the passion dies , there was no way you stood a chance in the 1st place.Ask yourself this , what was it I saw in them that I thought was missing in my life they could fill , when did you realise that you were the only 1 who could fill it , if you dont know yourself or love yourself enough on your own why did you think their love would be enough?

Find yourself before expecting someone else to find you for you , good luck.

Answer 3

Typically, that initial passionate phase transitions into a committed companionship over time. I am still head over heels for my husband, and we've been married for 5 years next year. I believe it's what you make of it. Always tell each other you love them, find ways to make things unique/special, and never lose your sense of humor.

Answer 4

Depends on how hard you work to keep it alive, and how mature your love for each other is....and a lot of other factors.

It will come back from time to time over the course of the relationship, even after it fades initially.

Answer 5

lasts from 3 min to 3 years. replaced by togetherness, not necessarily physical.

Answer 6

If it is infatuation you feel then it will die very soon.

If it is truly love/passion..it will only get stronger.

Answer 7

true love can last a life time, really liking someone or just pure lust can be over as soon as u read this sentence.
