WindSister - I think this video is for people in new relationships to assess whether they are really in love - the kind of love that lasts - or infatuation. Infatuation has passion. So does in-love. But yeah, I reckon passion does change over the long haul. We haven't hit the 1 yr mark in our relationship yet... and to be honest I haven't had a relationship go long enough for the passion to dwindle - and in my longest relationship the SM, well - it was never right from day 1. Like shamwow and others have said - if I'd known more I'd have tolerated it for not nearly as long. But on the other hand, I'm in an amazing relationship now with one great kid and two great bonus kids. Makes sense of the video, thanks! And, same here when it comes to a relationship not lasting long enough to know about how passion changes, aside from my SM, which also lacked it from day one. It was never really there - so maybe this video would have helped me? Or maybe I was choosing unknowingly for every reason BUT love but dressed it up as love for convenience sake. I know I share this a lot here, because it's just the thing in the back of my head (the waiting for the other shoe to drop). When the passion changes -- because I do think that is what happens in HEALTHY LTR - it changes... it doesn't "go away" but it morphs into something stronger/better. It's all fascinating to me, anyway. I am thankful I ended where I did, too - no regrets, just living in the now!
