Why is it that the beginning of relationship is more exciting than ever? How does one maintain such excitement or go beyond it?

The term Love should only be expressed toward humans. Anything else falls below that level of emotional expression. You should like your car, your dog, your phone, your blow up doll and your vibrator in that these things cannot recipicate or express the emotional aspect of Love in return. Love people and like things.

Only a human can express and recipicate the emotional feeling that is Love. Hence its usage should be reserved for people only.

Now, there are different forms of human Love. The greatest being between God and human, the next being man and woman, parent and child, and people to people. Each branch there after linking back to one another. These link are replicated over and over.

Love can be gauged on the level or amount of commitment and sacrifice one makes for the other.

Love should be a oneway endevor. You should give and focus 100% on what you can do in your relationship. Find someone with that same level of commitment. If both of you commit 100% then both will receive 100%.

If you can understand this statement then you are in good shape but if not, then you have some soul searching to do.

Boys show Love to make Love.
Men make Love to show Love.

Hint.
one of the phrases makes you very selective the other is nothing but an excuse .

All in the sprit of Valentines Day

Guys, your greatest asset in life will be your true woman. She will honor and take care of you as you will her.

I will garantee this. If something were to happen to you, your buddy nor your car or even your money will come to your aide.

Look at Christopher Reeves and who was there for him. It could happen to any of us.

Don't confuse instinct with Love.

There are two facets to Love.

It is the spritual feeling and the expression that TWO people posses towards one another. It is not solitified until the two converge of the two and its acknowledgement.

Action without words is the same as words without actions.

You bring a good example for others to see and understand.
Questions:

How does your car express its feeling for you and how?

How does any animal or object express feelings toward you?

How does the two or you acknowledge and confirm the expression of Love?

Wilson was only a ball that replaced a void in someone's life. There was no
emotional exchange between the two hence there was no Love in the true context of the word LOVE.

Communication is key to the acknowledgement process.

Here is an example that reflects the critical nature of communication.

I happen to speak Italian and was in a relationship with a Italian girl. There is a phrase used to express an emotional feeling towards two people.

Te volio bene - this is an term used a lot and has strong emotional meaning to Italians.
Here is the translation: I want you good.

If you were to say that to an American its meaning and expression is lost in the interpretation. It is not until you link the expression from the person with the emotional feeling that you can get the true context of this expression of Love.

A word of caution. If one starts to place opjects in the same category as people in regards to Love, then when it come time to make choices between either of the two, you may very well have a hard time is making the right decision.

so you need the words even though you do the actions?

I didn't mean objects, just cars...

Mine runs nice and somehow seems to stay cleaner when I'm nice to her. When I talk smack on her or something, I usually get stranded, or she lets herself go (gets dirty faster).

I think primates and other semi-intelligent species such as dogs, sea mammals, parrots, usually express actions that can be interpreted as showing care or friendship towards other beings... They seem to feel sadness and loss when separated from those they "love".

Yep!

It removes all doubts. Most of the time it provides reassurance and comfirmation.

Just because someone tells you I got your back today, does it mean they will have it tomorrow. No.

Action and words are the only things people have to go on. Your track record builds the security and trust in your relationship.

So when you take her lunch, she see the actions but may not know the reason why. It is a unknown until the moment you tell her. Then it is a known.

Remember it is her dealings with the boys that makes her so unsure. They do and say everything she wants to hear until they get the candy.

True Love is hearing it and feeling it at the same time.

So, when she asks that question, know that she only trying to get confirmation and answer her with a yes and show her with a hug.

That's how you can insure a smile on both your faces

Hmm, good question. I've experienced the so-called honeymoon effect in all of my past relationships. I've been with my current boyfriend for about 7 months now, and it's noticeably a better relationship than when we first started out, in all regards. I guess we're just really compatible, and we both work incredibly hard with keeping an open communication in our relationship. I haven't had too many relationships, but I'm willing to say that good communication is the key to good/hot/fulfilling/happy relationships.

Keep in mind that humans are primates, and that we're generally regarded as the most intelligent (as opposed to semi-intelligent).
