text: in addition to what i have learned.....? ive also learned that we live in a corrupt society where in most, not all relationships, that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades, and there had better be a lot of money to take its place. wouldnt you agree? no, i think true love changes over time.. not fades.  research has actually shown that if we were to stay in that passionate state that happens at the beginning of a relationship for an extended period of time it would be bad for our health.  it is actually a good thing that it grows and matures.
