I think monogamy is a beautiful concept, and I have to say the formula for a successful relationship is honesty and trust. Once trust has been breached it's very hard to repair.

Love is blind, deaf and mute too.

Sadly, that burning type love doesn't last forever, especially once reality creeps in.

Great feeling while it lasts though.

The feeling hides itself soon after the sparks fly. It is our job to rediscover eachother every day.Can you do it?!?
It takes some work to find that place of wonder and magic and remain there, especially with all the distractions and problems we must deal with continually.

Well, if that's true I can honestly say that my husband never really loved me.

Maybe he looks at his new wife with love.

Love is Blind, but marriage is an eye opener!
