When the Honeymoon’s Over…

I have been asked by my readers: “How can we keep that honeymoon feeling
after the honeymoon?” It’s a great question. Usually when people talk about the
honeymoon being over, they mean that the couple is no longer being
affectionate and they are fighting. Something has come between them. The love
potion has worn off.
Does it have to be this way? Can the honeymoon feeling be maintained
indefinitely?
It is a scientific fact that the euphoric feeling new lovers have is tied to
hormones that wear off two to four years into their relationship. It is also true
that there is a big difference between the simplicity of sitting on the beach
together in a sub-tropical paradise versus the complexity of juggling work, family,
hobbies, and your new relationship.
But if the question of keeping “that honeymoon feeling” is about true happiness
together and deep love for one another, then that feeling can absolutely be
maintained and even improved upon.
