Eros.

Eros or romance doesn't have to end but quite often it does.

Life kicks in, routine kicks in, and where once, everything seemed lighter and brighter things return to the duller and heavier.
Eros ends in part because people expect it to.
It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.

When things are going well, its often called the 'honeymoon period'. 'oh it wont last' they think...'it cant last they say'.. they believe it wont, so it doesn't... and people tend to enjoy being right.

People expect it to end.. or fade away, based on the experiences of others, sometimes on their own past experiences.
Its as if we fear happiness.

Yet, whilst it may lay dormant amidst life’s routine..It doesn't usually take much to revive it.
One person can make a difference, but ultimately, it really does take two.
To appreciate the person you see before you helps. To not become lazy or complacent. To see them as you once saw them.
To love them unconditionally...or not.
To laugh together cry together, support each other surprise each other, thank the gods you've been brought together, and have fun.
It’s always.. a choice.
But don’t blame Eros.
It can lead you to love, but the rest is up to you.
