Where I think people get fucked up is that they've been programmed to believe that love is somehow permanent or unchanging.

Duo's right. The same feeling of 'love' you have for a person isn't going to last forever. Personally I think love is a strong feeling of attachment that comes when you and your partner's fates are irreversably intertwined. I don't mean that in some sort of stupid, romantic way; I mean when your boyfriend decides to do something really stupid like quit school even though he has no internal drive to learn on his own and get a job on his own skills and merits, and you're the only one
dissuading him, that's love.
or being a sap. Whatevs.
But Duo's right, you're not going to have the same feelings for your partner for the rest of your lives, even if you love him or her throughout.
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
