i think less stress/busyness helps a lot. but life is busy and stressful. i agree with patti that it comes and goes, and those inbetween times are where commitment comes into it. that being said... going out on bona fide dates and when at home not just co-existing. randy and i found that it was too easy to do that. we are learning to make a point to turn off the tv and computer and TALK.

i don't think the Crazy In Love spark that comes with early days of falling in love is something that you recapture in it's full glory. maybe i'm wrong. but i think that it gets replaced with something a lot deeper and dare i say better.
