Well... physical attraction wears off over time, obviously. I was reading some newspaper advice column one time out of incredible boredom. Basically what it said was that you just have to find somebody who isn't going to piss you off and will make you happy every day, regardless of how attractive they are to you!

true that on pissing off and making happy, but imho, you just can't be with someone if you aren't physically attracted with them. Even if it wears off.
if not, then one or both with eventually cheat on each other

I personally rather not answer that question, just too much for me to go into. But I believe that because of what i have experienced, that not everybody does, that love does not exist, it's just merely a strong attraction, love is just a title people put on a strong attraction they feel for someone else, when it's the same kind of attraction two 14 year olds can have together, the difference is that people get married and use love as an excuse, when it's just a another attraction. That's why there are so many divorces. There have also been experiments showing that humans are just like many other animals. Animals don't usually find a mate and stay with them forever and we as humans weren't meant for that either, even though we do. It has been proven that 2 humans are attractive to each other for about 7 years, which is enough time to have offspring and then the attraction is over or isn't as strong as it was.
i don't know what it is that you've experienced that can't be shared with everyone else, but whatever it is, apparently it is because of this that you've decided that "love" doesn't exist. but since there is really no absolute meaning for the word, what exactly would you define love as?

Ladies and gentlemen, more evidence of the type of thought that is contributing to the 1 out of 2 marriages ending in divorce. Lord, powerfulone... you must have been screwed over way too many times in relationships to be this cynical. Remind me to shield my kids from any of your offspring, should you remain with someone long enough to have any.
