True Love is not about being inseparable; it is about two people being true to each other even when they are separated.
The person you are dating is amazing. There were many reasons why you wanted to start dating that person.
The first couple of months being in each other’s company just felt right. You two are inseparable.
You two are the couple that makes everyone jealous. You two are the couple that makes everyone wish they could have a relationship just like yours.
You only focus on your partner and the only thing you want to do is spend time together. The entire World feels like it is been reduced to you two.
Call it drunk in Love or seeing stars, the honeymoon phase is a phenomenon that is so powerful, it can not be replicated.
Enjoy the sex three times per day and happy-for-no-reason feeling because, once it is gone, it will not happen again.
The honeymoon period tends to last anywhere between 6 months and a year.
The relationship still feels fresh and exciting, and you are constantly learning new things about each other and having first experiences together.
But there comes a point when suddenly you have done all that stuff together already.
You feel like you know your partner inside out. And then the unthinkable happens: you feel bored.
That person that was so exciting a few short months ago is suddenly there every day. And it feels like they have been there every day for an awfully long time.
There is no more rush from seeing them, because you are always seeing them. Boredom leads to questioning your feelings.
Surely if you still felt as strongly for them, you wouldn’t feel bored! Nothing else has changed, so it must be your feelings for them.
But if your feelings are fading, then that is it. They are clearly not the one, so you might as well give up.
Maybe you start thinking about other people. You miss those exciting days of discovering a new person, but surely you could have that again with someone else, and this time you could make it last.
This is only compounded by the second reason the honeymoon period inevitably comes to an end: you know way too much about your current partner. You know that they snore when they are drunk.
