In my economics notebook, I was rewriting the law of diminishing marginal utility:
"As you consume more of a good, a point is eventually reached when your total utility will increase at a slower rate because of a fundamental psychological tendency for one's ability to appreciate more of the good to diminish,"
when this new thought came to me. Doesn't this definition also apply to love?
Of course, I do not have much experience with love so I wonder: Is love a fleeting thing? When you have too much of the other person, will you start to appreciate that person less over time?

hm... that's why every day you have to find something new to love. when you think you run out of things to love, you make things to love or do things to love. You'll find that love is endless. But also love takes it's toll. You get tired and it ends.
There is no one love for life but there are many loves for appropriate times of your life.
>.<
it happens... but once you get over that small thought... you'll immediately find something new to love about the other person...
and yes, couples do take one another for granted at some point... but it is up to them to talk things out and sort out misunderstandings... :]
