I was reading this girl's blog. I don't know her, I just happened across a link to it and started reading:

What she is talking about is something I had never even thought about before losing K. But what she is talking about, is exactly what happened with us. And it happened very fast, at least for me. It wasn't more than a few weeks in, that I felt like we had switched from passion, to loving friends. My lack of experience in long term relationships didn't let me recognize this as things going perfectly. I saw this as, "oh my god, something is wrong here!". I remember repeatedly thinking, "K is beautiful and kind, and more than I could have ever even thought to ask for in a girl. We connect like I've never connected with anyone in my life." I thought I was supposed to feel like I did that very first week, forever.
If only I had known then, what I know now.
