8 years!!
Time flies so fast!
I was a naive bride in 2011, and now we celebrate 8 years of our family life:)!
8 years is called a tin anniversary because the family is rather strong already just like this metal.
Well.. I am not going to tell about our huge love and passion that are still alive like 8 years ago. Such stories are rather exaggerated to my mind:)
Now I am not so naive any more:)
Do we love each other?
Yes. Otherwise, we couldn't save our family.
Do we love each other like in the beginning?
No. And I am absolutely calm about it.
8 years is a rather long term, and feelings are something very tender and changeable.
Love does exist, but it's different! It's not affection, mania and craziness like it happens in the first months, it's something calmer, but deeper and stronger.
When affection leaves, something not less important comes.
Deep understanding and deep knowledge of each other are the main for me.
When you say dome words,and tour partner can continue the sentence. When you even don't need to explain something, because it's enough for him just to look at you. When all wishes and dreams can be predicted because you just feel what he feels.
The hardest period was our son's birth. Our life changed completely, and we had to discover our new roles of parents, not just lovers and partners. A word "divorce" was close to us but we overcame all these difficulties. Now parenthood is our pride and happiness.
I worried much when I felt affection left, but now I am satisfied and calm.
Such understanding is worth of these long and sometimes hard years of discovering each other and building our family.
so what do you think, friends?
Can love be unchangeable during all long years?
