Love does not Retire—Not even after a Half Century of Marriage

Abstract

Even the 21st century people—and younger too—hope and dream of lasting love, permanent human relationships, and family. Love is appreciated and considered an important source of personal pleasure and support. High expectations are placed on an intimate relationship. It should give its best, function as a place to rest, hide, and grow and offer safety, adventures, and recreation. People, who demand plenty on their life, expect that love will heal, remove obstacles of happiness, their own deficiencies and bad sides and provide perfect pleasure.
