Long-term relationships hold intrinsic value as they provide opportunities for personal growth and deeper emotional connections. The dynamic of attraction can evolve, influenced by the accumulation of emotional complexities such as frustrations and unresolved conflicts. Attraction often diminishes not because of physical changes in a partner, but due to negative perceptions colored by these emotional issues.
