Choice of love (21)
For me the choice is easy ... I choose the Latter one, for the simple reason that I have had the first, and the passion filled ones are tiring on the soul, and become hypocritical .... Stupidly, for me, they led to walking down the aisle and making Real Serious Vows before God, in a Christian church, and then I had to find a good Jewish Lawyer to break those vows......
Why do we choose the one, when we all secretively crave both...??
Wouldn't you rather have a year of living every moment like it's your last, than a lifetime reminding yourself that you're making a compromise....?
Great question...difficult to answer...can't choose, won't choose....holding out for both...:-)

I was gonna wait for a couple more replys but in my opinion in a long lasting relationship the two choices seem to combine into one.
When a relationship first starts you have that excitement of a new love and passion etc. for the first year or so and than gradually changes into the second option of respect and understanding. is this a good thing or should the couple try to keep the passion alive?
maybe i am wrong and people that have found the love of their life, the passion remains alive.

To keep the passion alive you both have to work on it, but that's the same with the love and respect, it has to be worked on to prosper, and that's alot of the fun too I think
It never does......it morphs into something else.... but you just have to be intelligent and commited enough to stay with it...trust me, been there...Life is fraught with compromises....
Respect, loyalty and understanding and not the tiniest trace of passion?Sounds to me like sentimental diabetes...which leads to routine...which means collateral losses and an annoying truce.
No,definitely I choose passion, butterflies in the belly and everything.
What can I say? I'm a shallow woman...

Yes, you are a shallow woman, but when you have twenty bellies you shall eat your words! 
I agree. The hard work begins when she doesn't realise is that the tv remote control belongs to you, and that trying to obtain ownership by using her female wiles just doesn't cut any ice!
I mean to say, what has it got to with her what you watcgh on tv. She should shut up, get you a beer and carry on cooking a meal.........there is an old saying 'Give an inch and she wants all seven point five inches - now!'

May be the weak at the knees stuff is passion but I wouldn't call it love unless you also like and respect the person. Without the liking, respect, understanding, affection how can there be love?Surely the "passionate weak at the knees thing" is more lust, infatuation and addiction than love...
Old Tibetan Saying
"Better to live one day as a Tiger than a thousand years as a Sheep'
Just make that one day last a life time, not so difficult when you have truly experienced that one day as a Tiger, all you have to do is never forget or take anything for granted in yourself or your lover. The butterflies in the tummy, that first kiss, are only the beginning, Passion is not a dirty word. Passion in love is love. infatuation in love is love. Respect in love is love.
If, liking, respect, understanding, affection are alone without true Passion then is love restricted to this definition only?

bäääähhhhh mäaahhhh 
waiting for my tiger 
No fear witchy sis My butterflies and passion are alive and kicking! They just happen to be in the same melting pot as my like, respect, fondness and daily getting stronger love for that nice gentleman you mention.
Weak at the knees melting with love in a "let's build a future together relationship" - where you actually like one another as people - is way better than weak at the knees in a "pure adrenaline rush, infatuation, pure lust driven relationship - where you don't actually "like" one another as people, but you have this "thing" happening which you confuse with love.
Usually we want both-may be thats why we are now singles
When I say you Witchy Sis, I don't mean you personally, I mean "one" / people generally
Sentimental diabetes...now that is a stroke of genius! I love it! Good as "salacious elegance" or post-traumatic love affair, which many women suffer from. Do we both have a malignant growth of comical infestation pulsating in the vacuum meant for more cerebral delusions? %D

Or a companionship with respect, loyalty and understanding that lasts a life time.
Which would you choose and why?
