Maybe a certain age has arrived, we no longer want to go back to the ferris wheel of sensations and less periodically, right? The passionate love of Romeo and Juliet cannot and should not last a lifetime.Being stunned, not being able to stop thinking about that person and feeling butterflies in the stomach constantly runs out. What about that other deeper love , more intense, more spiritual that can unite us for many, many years? That link in our opinion, although different, can be as powerful as that passionate love of the first years.
