When couples question whether their long-term relationship is true love or comfortable settling

My partner and I have been together for twelve years and we both feel like we love each other but we can't figure out if what we have now is mature love or if we've just gotten comfortable with settling. We're both afraid to examine it too closely because we don't know what we'll find.

What we've seen

Two people must discern together whether their bond has deepened into something essential or eroded into mere habit.

Worth thinking about

“Where Are You with What love ultimately is — the examined final question?”
