As I've said before, love is a verb not just a feeling. It is a choice to be there, be supportive, be together, build a life, etc. No matter what, it will have its ups and downs. Obviously you have found some pleasuer in being with your SO, or you wouldn't have hung in there 7 years. You can choose to build on what you have and make this love last forever, or, as it appears you've already done, move on. But in the next, and the next, be aware that at some point the butterflies go away and love becomes a choice. (Viking1064, ditto to you.) When you make that choice and you take action, the real fun can begin -- be creative, have fun, and work it. It is worth it when you are with the "one."

If you can go deeply into lovemaking, the ego disappears. That is the beauty of lovemaking, that it is another source of a glimpse of god
It's not about being perfect; it's about developing some skill at managing imperfection.
