I'd say you asked yourself the most important question as a man,"would I die for this person".

As a man I say you have to say yes to this..in order to be in love with the women you marry...I'd not want the women to feel this obligation though..since that is our role

Septembermom..I agree that you also need lust...I met my wife at about age 17 and I was also this age, we are now in our 30's....all I can say is she drove me crazy with lust I could not get her off my mind,and she wanted to play hard to get while constantly flirting kissing etcetc..she would even bring me dinner every night and sleep over in the same bed,but would put the brakes on when I tried to go to far,and this was ALLOT for over a month...she was and still is soooo hot...if it had not been for this I probably never would have hung in there so long....just kidding,I know this sounds shallow...

anyway I think the romance is for the movies...though is important to include to break up the regimen once in a while,women like to be suprised..and the fact that I did and still do lust for her is no suprise anymore LOL

though I'm sure I have not been or never will be, the perfect husband..I wish I could..thats not to say she has been the perfect wife either..we are actually opposites..but have been together every day since we met..very very hard to do
