Falling in love requires an attitude adjustment, some see it as settling, I see it as seeing the beauty in front of you and taking that opportunity! When dating there were always the ones that are good for you and the ones that are bad for you, we're attracted to the ones that are bad for us. We get our hearts broken all while the perfect person is there waiting, just beyond our notice until for some-they just fade away.
See past the perfect person, see past the six pack abs, see past the high profile job and look at those that surround and find that person to fall in love with. It can start tentative where your instincts tell you they are not perfect therefore not for you, but push past that and really see the person for who they are. You'll find that what didn't start as white hot passion starts as a slow burn and continues and continues and continues.
Staying in love requires the same mentality, see what you have and be happy with it. Remember that as your life together stretches on and you get older that things may not be perfect but that you are still there is love in itself. Passion turns to respect then respect turns to a type of love that makes you feel comfortable when you think of that person, that makes you feel peace when you are with that, this is falling into a different type of love - a realization that what you have is pretty damn good and be thankful for it.
Falling in love and staying in love require just a small attitude adjustment, see your life for what it is, realize that you will not be a celebrity and be thankful and happy for what's in front of you, it's much better than anything out there! Do you recognize love when it's right in front of you?
doesn't have to be perfect
turn off your inner sensors
look, really look at what's in front of you
