February 13, 2009 -- Question: I know that it's difficult to continuously sustain a high level of passion and desire in a long-term relationship, but how do I know that I'm not just falling out of love?

Answer: If you are emotionally connected to the person; you're intimate with them and you can talk to them about things that are on your mind and be vulnerable with them -- and if there is a commitment. And then you also can count on them for doing some things for you in the bedroom that are really pleasurable and you can ask them for sexual favors and know that you're going to have some fun in the bedroom and you can trust them. That is really as good as it gets and you should thank your lucky stars.
