Question about long term partner
Only my love for Pisces never dies
They never claim me for long though
They never claim me for long though
I don't know if that's possible but things can change and grow. Like if you meet when you are 17 and fuck all day everyday then you probably won't be doing that when you are 80. Then you'll be holding hands on a park bench instead but it doesn't make it lesser. I feel like stagnation will set in unless there is growth. The 7 year itch is an example because after 7 years you really need to assess if it is for life or not because by that stage you can't just carry on as its always been - there has to be progression

Has anyone been married or with someone that they never felt there was a change from the honeymoon stage? Like they still feel so happy to speak to their partner about anything and everything? Excited to see them?
Is it possible to always feel that way about someone after so long?
I had/have someone like that. Some rocky history but for years always happy to see her and talk it just listen to her. Never could stay mad at her for long too.
I’d say It’s very rare but not impossible
A romantic relationship is a full-time job; just because you secured a person doesn’t mean the work is over.
It is possible to maintain the honeymoon phase, but both parties have to be committed to that. I’d say never let your curiosity/wonder towards your partner fade.
My parents have been married 30+ years and they still ask each other questions about stories from their lives before they met each other, recount childhood stories, etc. They’re always planning trips together, running errands together, going on long bike rides or other physical excursions. Those little things help keep the spark alive, imo.

In fact, I’d go as far as saying their bond is stronger now that all of us kids and our problems are out of their house.
to each their own wick but you need constant fanning to keep the torches burning.
today is our 3rd anniversary of when we first met (this is the one we celebrate because we've married each other twice and always on the 5th too which is intentionally on that day). can't say too much coz i feel like only people who've been married for maybe 2 decades should have a say in these things but even when i try to be secretive with my husband (i have moon in the 8th and he's a Scorpio moon), i just can't help but be excited about some news that i'm positive would make him happy. just the thought of making his day never gets old for me and i hope the feeling never goes away.
there might be rare instances of an argument where it almost feels like we're trying to outdo each other on who says the craziest, most unhinged things but that ends in either laughter or apologies. either way, it doesn't last long. probably helps that the both of us have such 'fleeting' anger like in the blink of an eye its poof gone. maybe it's coz we're mutable idk 🤷🤷

Chemistry sets a relationship on fire, but it doesn't keep it going.It will burn out.
I'd say it very rare, if not impossible for it, to remain at the same level of excitement.When it first started. How can it.
New relationships are exciting. You don't know this person and they don't know you. You're on your best behavior and you are trying to impress them you show them your best self.
Fast forward a few years and you ll be wishing this guy would leave the room instead of farting in front of you, you'll have heard him taking a dump, you will have been treated to every loathsome characteristic of his personality that exists.
We all have loathsome characteristics, no one is perfect and no one can hide them forever.
He will have pissed you off. He will have annoyed you. He would have upset you, it just happens in relationships.There isn't one single couple alive. Who's never had a fight or annoyed?The other.
But what evolves is something different.Something stronger something deeper. You are staying with each other despite these issues, because the benefits outweigh the negatives.
Yes, I had that for 18 years!!! so much love and laughter every day. And the sex was pretty good all along.
I think that would be exhausting.

Well I mean .. i think couples can have like a part of the year .. like honeymoon summer
Or if they feel the relationship needs a boost for the other person .. a couple times of year
But honestly other than that too tiring... maybe im wrong and just too cynical

Met this watery Gem the past weekend and we had a date. She hasn't done anything wild, but I'm concerned because she's laying it on pretty thick via text. In person she's a bit conservative so I'm wondering if this is a typical push-pull game for her. She
