Romance does not have to fizzle out in long-term relationships and progress into a companionship/friendship-type love, a new study has found.
最新研究發現，長期的愛情關系并不一定導致浪漫元素的減少，也不會導致戀愛關系向伙伴或朋友關系轉變。
Romantic love can last a lifetime and lead to happier, healthier relationships.
浪漫愛情可以持續一生，并且變得越來越幸福，越來越健康。
"Many believe that romantic love is the same as passionate love," said lead researcher Bianca P. Acevedo, PhD, then at Stony Brook University (currently at University of California, Santa Barbara). "It isn't. Romantic love has the intensity, engagement and sexual chemistry that passionate love has, minus the obsessive component. Passionate or obsessive love includes feelings of uncertainty and anxiety. This kind of love helps drive the shorter relationships but not the longer ones."
主持研究的Bianca P. Acevedo當時是石溪大學的博士生，現任職于加州大學圣芭芭拉分校。她表示，很多人以為浪漫之愛和激情之愛是一回事，但實際上并非如此。浪漫之愛在強度、承諾和性吸引方面與激情之愛相同，但沒有后者的強迫性成分。激情的或者強迫性的愛情包含了不確定和焦慮的感覺，它驅動的是短期關系而不是長期關系。
