We are at kids at uni/college phase. But I think over the last 25 years it's been more of a rollercoaster. We seem to have about a 3 month period of being head over heels, very soppy and cuddly, about 6 weeks of plodding along, 2 weeks of finding each other deeply irritating, 3-6 weeks of plodding. And back to head over heels again.

Yes I identify with this the most

SO INTERESTING ALL THE REPLIES
