		<description>It is amazing to me, and sad, how little some people know about love. Yes, Marlene, it is possible to stay &quot;in love&quot; for an entire lifetime. Yes, it is possible for romance to be as strong at 50 or 60 or 80 as it is at 25. Circumstances change in life, but real love never changes. If you are finding that your love is changing every &quot;year or so&quot; then what you thought was love wasn&#039;t really love at all.</description>

		<description>I read from the other comments that some of people leaving comments know the person who wrote this article and that they know the Mary Ann that he talks about too. If those comments were not here I don&#039;t think that I would believe any of the things he writes about. I don&#039;t believe that there are too many people who can be in a relationship for as long as thatand still love each other in a romantic way. I can understnad how some people can be like partners in business and be really close friends and even care about one another but I don&#039;t see how romance can last as long as that. Romance goes away in most relationships after a year or so and almost nobody is still &quot;in love&quot; with their partner after more than a few years. I don&#039;t think that most people are biologically made like the person who writes this blog and they grow tired of being with the same person all the time. You may still like the person as a friend but I can&#039;t see the romance lassting.

The other thing is that people are changing all the time so the person I fall in love with now won&#039;t even be the same person in a few years. I will change too and we may or may not have anything in common then. If you don&#039;t change I think that life will be a very boring. So I don&#039;t know if it is a good thing or a bad thing to be in love for as long as the person writing. I believe he thinks that it is a good thing and that may be good for him. I wonder if it is really as good as he thinks it is for his wife?  It might all be great but I don&#039;t know.</description>

		<description>Prentice, once again you artistry (or craftmanship, if you prefer) with words is superb reading!  How beautifully you express the deep, deep love for Mary Ann, that I&#039;ve observed at our church!

How long have you two been married?  This piece reads like you&#039;ve been forever. . . . and never closer than now!

Oh, and you taught me a new word today:  limerence.  When I looked it up in an on-line dictionary it added depth to what you were expressing at that place in the post.  So, thanks for helping increase my vocabulary.  I owe you one!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m so glad my computer is up and running again.  It would be sad indeed if I had missed this post.  What a wonderful story of love you two share.  Your blessing has been a blessing to me also.  Thanks for helping me prove my affirmation that true love is indeed attainable.  It is my hope that others too may experience this absolute love that I share with my Debbie and that is also shared by you and Mary Ann.</description>

		<description>I read this story and all of the linked related posts too.  All I can say is that this is some romance! I especially liked the post about the trip to Callaway Gardens.  I have a very fond memory of a day at Callaway Gardens myself.</description>
