I'm not sure where you got the impression that passion and stability cannot co-exist. The thing about passion is that you should have that in a relationship along with deep love and stability. Passion is something that comes and goes, it ebbs and flows and until one accepts this reality and stops expecting to have it 24x7x365 they'll always be unhappy. I give it to you this way. I am an artist and have a strong passion for doing things with my art skills but... that being said even with my art, having been an artist pretty much all my life, it doesn't remain steady, even with that it comes and goes.

You're too young to be thinking that you should settle for someone, in spite of how you feel about them. I mean, why even be with someone if they spark nothing in you? If you go that route, you're almost guaranteed to end up in a very dispassionate and boring relationship n the long run and not very many people can do that long term, let alone for life (as in marriage, not that you hve that goal right now)

If at this point in your short relationship you're already looking outside the "yard" so to speak to the greener lawns elsewhere, you're right, I'm gonna say something's not right and you probably shouldn't even commit yourself to this guy yet. Perhaps dating them for longer without the long term or steady exclusive relationship is the way to go. In all honesty, if you're ready to commit to someone, you won't even question, you won't be looking, you won't consider others because the one you have will be enough.

I don't think you know what you truly want and for taht reason I think you should continue dating others, whether you keep this guy as a date partner or not I don't think youre ready for an exclusive relationship at all.
