Love, being in love, isn’t a constant thing. It doesnt always flow at the same strength. Its not always like a river in flood. Its more like the sea. It has tides, it ebbs and flows. The thing is, when love is real, whether its ebbing or flowing, its always there, it never goes away. And thats the only proof you can have that its real, and not just a crush or infatuation or a passing fancy.
