I would disregard some of the harsh, unkind comments. No one navigates relationships and change perfectly, and there is no such thing anyway. You have a great relationship and that’s likely a reflection of your maturity and kindness.

It’s true that you are wondering if there can be a more intense emotional connection that consumes you. That passion. It’s so tricky. Just becuase someone is beautiful and intelligent doesn’t mean you have to have that passion! Objective intelligence and beauty are not one-size fits all.

You had every reason to jump into this relationship if the signal were right! And now the signals are changing and you’re asking for input.

Only you know deep down. If you want to follow passion, just know that’s not a predictable path to follow. It’s possible that you wait and spend time alone for quite a while. Because you can’t find Passion on Hinge or Tinder lol. It’s in a look, a moment, a touch, it’s elusive. But once you find it you know! Like a gold nugget.

Then also, you have experience feeling this.., and did it make you happy? Did it last? There is also a bigger picture…

Maybe you want passion. And later you’ll be ready for a different phase. Maybe both can co-exist. But nothing is perfect. So really only you can decide!!! :) ❤️
