8. TRIVIA
Romantic love lasts on average just over a year, perhaps because the brain cannot eternally maintain a revved-up state of romantic bliss. As romantic love wanes, attachment love, a more stable love, sets in. To keep the passion alive, experts suggest doing satisfying and exciting activities as a couple.

9. ZEN WISDOM
Those who always have a sense of appreciation and gratitude never reach an impasse in life.
