When you're in love, you probably think about the guy ALL the time and want to spend every possible moment with him.
And you and your guy share an intense connection.
The chemistry's so thick you could cut it with a knife.
And the world, people, colors, smells... everything seems brighter.
The attraction level is unbelievable.
The honeymoon stage does some crazy things to your body too.
Here's a few of the "Love symptoms" that come with these chemicals in the honeymoon stage:
-heightened awareness (your senses) -reduced appetite -increased heart rate -increased energy level -an increase in your sex drive -feelings of euphoria (intense happiness)
Actually, I'm kinda feeling this way right now after my third cup of coffee here at Starbucks.
Anyways... So that's the first stage of love we all know about, want to be in and want to keep going.

It's no wonder that the honeymoon stage is often the easy part.
But there's a simple and unpleasant fact about the honeymoon stage...
If you don't what's going on with a man in each stage of love, and know what you're doing and how he perceives it, all the great parts of the honeymoon stage won't last forever.
WHAT MEN THINK ONCE THE HONEYMOON IS OVER
I get emails everyday from women wanting to know how they can "get back" to where things were when things started with a man.
They remember how things used to be and wonder why they can't be that way now.
So they ask themselves...
"Why is he so distant?"
"Why doesn't he share his feelings anymore?"
"Why don't I feel close to him, and why am I not getting my emotional and other needs met like I used to?"
So why is this is so common to so many women?
I've recognized what a big part of it is.
CHANGE.
When things are good, or more to the point comfortable or predictable in our lives, we DON'T like the idea of change... at all.
In any relationship, after the initial attraction, mystery, intrigue, etc. passes and the honeymoon slows, guess what?
Things start to change inside a relationship.
Whether you like it, or not.
And both the man and the woman are responsible to know how to see it, think about it and deal with it.
And here's where TONS of women run into a whole set of COUNTERPRODUCTIVE thoughts and SELF-DESTRUCTIVE behaviors.
They get caught up in an almost hopeless battle to try and prolong the honeymoon stage and the ease by which they could connect and share with the man.

Especially when they don't see that the man is noticing or making the same effort they are.
This usually shows up with things like the following (tell me if any of these sound familiar?):
-Noticing that a man isn't as attentive or affectionate anymore, so you pull back to see if he'll notice and close the gap, but he doesn't and so you withdraw, leaving nothing but distance between you two
