I think that the stability gives you a foundation to spring forth your passion into safe areas. If you find the passionate man to share your life with, you will have magic in the short term but ultimately struggle when your passions diverge. You might find someone who you could share your passions with longterm, but it could take a lifetime to find. And who know if it will blow up until you've spent your life with them.

I agree with everything you say. My marriage is good and I love my husband. We built a beautiful life together. It's warm and comforting. But this new man brings out feelings I've haven't had in so long. Feelings that are intense. But I'm not a stupid girl. If I don't see a stable future with this new man I will leave. I won't be one of those women who end up alone and impoverished. My major choices will be careful and well thought out. (The stolen moments are delicious though.)
Can one have both passion and stability?
