Sustaining love over time

Sustaining love over time means learning to love someone through seasons—through boredom and irritation and the thousand small disenchantments that follow the initial fever. It requires choosing again, not once but continuously, to see the person in front of you rather than the fantasy you brought to the relationship, and to find richness in that reality.
