Love has three essential components: intimacy, passion, and commitment.
Intimacy is closeness and mutual support, partnership. It increases as the lovers draw closer and may not appear in a calm, measured life.
Passion is a feeling of attraction. It culminates at the beginning of a relationship but stops growing in long-term relationships. However, this does not mean that passion is absent in a long marriage - it simply ceases to be an important motivator for a couple.
Commitment - the willingness to be faithful to another person.
All these 3 things pass for each person at different times, someone stretches pleasure for many many years, someone in a hurry loses the transition from one phase to another ..., someone, because of a sense of pride and obstinacy, waits for action without doing anything himself ... So how do you really need?
There are no answers to this question and there never will be. We ourselves build our life, love in which is of particular importance, I am now talking about love between a man and a woman, because love is different, you can love a friend, girlfriend, children, parents, and so on - these are completely different feelings.
You can talk about love a lot and for a long time, this is a wonderful feeling that fills our lives!!! And I want to say only one thing, appreciate the feeling of love, enjoy every second, because in a few minutes everything can change!! Love each other, find compromises, do not offend each other, forgive each other. Do not postpone these feelings for later, love here and now. I, like many here, regret that I didn’t let love come to me all these years ... but I let go of this feeling of guilt, and open my heart to love, I advise you to do the same)))
