No matter how deep the love you give or receive, it will always find some kind of conclusion. Perhaps the end where you grow old together, sharing in your quiet harmony of life. Or it can be another kind of an end, the one in which you grow apart, or face death.

Stage 1: Attraction – The initial spark that draws you toward someone, igniting the beginning of something profound.

Stage 2: Attachment deepening bond that ties you together and makes the relationship more personal and intimate.

Stage 3: Love- where true affection and commitment to each other flourish and feelings are solidified and grow.

Stage 4: Trust-where a foundation is built upon belief in one another, where the threads of vulnerability and faith intertwine.

Stage 5: Worship-reverence and adoration; this is the stage when the partner becomes one's ideal.

Stage 6: Madness - the stormy period of enthrallment and chaos, during which feelings go out of control and reason dims out.

 Stage 7: Death -the very end that has to happen in some form or another, whether through separation or loss.

"Whenever I see you, I feel like I want to live in your eyes. Even though they're always frigid, I feel like heated gold. When I'm part of your sight, I can't stand straight because you age so beautifully. Every time your eyes meet mine, I want to stare at them forever. I know I would never find any better; yours are just so pretty. You're my star that shines so bright. Thank you for the lightness and rounds of happiness. This fondness that I know I am pleased to have met you, and I hope you do too." -Author Nim Eve 

"I'm so confused, don't know what to do. All I know is I wanna be with you. You make me smile whenever you are around. I could just sit and watch you without making a sound.

I could talk to you for hours about nothing at all. You make me feel so comfortable in your arms that I wish I could crawl.I miss you when you're gone I miss you when you're near. If we are together we will not have anything to fear. So I guess this is my finally telling you I'm being real and true. Not only do I like you I'm utterly head over heels in love with you." - Author Nim M
