The phrase full of mysteries that love lasts for three years is not just a set of beautiful words. According to experts, it has been tested and proven.
But you don't need to take these words literally and prepare to change your partner every 3-4 years in order to live your life in love and harmony - it won't lead to anything good. Let's try to figure it out.
Family relationship professionals agree on one thing: every couple goes through several stages on the path to creating a strong relationship.
The most romantic of them is the beginning. Bouquets, candies, kisses and confessions. But not everyone is in a hurry to call it love.
This is more of a falling in love stage, but real feelings for each other only arise after several years of living together. And it is impossible to fit this into 3 years.
First, they will have to go through one or maybe several crises, and only after 10 years, or at best 5 years, will the partners begin to treat each other the way loving people do.
But there is one caveat here too. You can't be patient and wait for everything to grind down and for true love to come.
It will come only to those people who build their relationships with sincere respect for each other, where there is affection, spiritual connection and common interests.
As for falling in love, there is no way without it either. Only for some this stage lasts for the cherished three years, while for others it barely lasts a year.
For reference
Love is a feeling of deep affection and aspiration towards an object of deep sympathy. Includes strong positive emotional and mental states.
