When we get married, we understand that we’re signing up for a lifelong commitment. We understand that the love we have for our partner will change and grow and evolve over time. The frantic, can’t-keep-our-hands-off-each-other passion we feel in the beginning is bound to fade into something more closely resembling compassionate love, which is a love of devotion and care and kindness. That’s why we ideally choose someone we can see ourselves growing old with, someone we genuinely like, a best friend.
Except, it turns out, that isn’t always the case! Not if you take some people’s word for it, anyway. And when you’re expecting a “cozy but bland” marriage and suddenly find yourself in the opposite, well, it can be alarming.
An unnamed social media user recently posted a frantic message asking for help: “Why am I too attracted to my wife?”
It it sounds weird, it is kinda weird.
