I've been in a few different types of relationships - some where it's just all hot and heavy and that's it. One where I had no interest in the guy, and it started out hot, but we over time got to know each other, and grew to like him more and more rather than less and less. One where I thought he was "nice", so we got together (no sex, no passion, no conversation.) There was the infatuation relationship, he was hot, I thought he was great, and he bought me gifts. Bottom line is this - I saw your chart, it makes sense.. But for me? When I start to like someone more and more over time, rather than less and less, I know it's a good thing.

Last year I was where you are. Six months later "it" found me and I actually pushed it away because I didn't believe "it" could be real. I had stopped looking for "it" and I was actually convinced that "it" just wouldn't happen for me. I had even accepted the whole notion that perhaps "it" would never happen and was settling into being completely okay with it. And then just like that "it" appeared. And the rest is history as I am five months away in planning my wedding with the man who I never thought existed. He is the last person I expected to fall in love with but he is just exactly right for who I should be with. Sometimes what we think is best and right for ourselves is so completely wrong that we don't even realize how wrong it is. Life has a funny way of happening though. And the way I've seen it happen in my 28.5 years of living, things absolutely happen when we least expect them. And also, when you're doing what you're supposed to be doing, when you're where you ought to be, and not forcing things to happen, everything else seems to slowly fall into place and eventually pick up so much speed that it propels you forward. :) Best of luck in finding your groove.

Hopefully it comes together enough to let us live our lives relatively happily. It never comes together, otherwise what’s the point of life?
