Cupid’s Expert Answers to Common Relationship Questions

❓1. How do I know if it's love or just infatuation?
Expert Answer:
Infatuation often feels intense, fast, and exciting — but it’s based on fantasy and attraction. Love, on the other hand, is patient and steady. It's built on trust, emotional safety, and genuine understanding. If you still care for them on their worst days, and want to grow with them (not just around them), that's love.
❓2. We fight a lot. Is that normal?
Expert Answer:
Yes, occasional arguments are a normal part of any close relationship. What matters is how you argue. If you both listen, apologize when needed, and try to understand each other, your bond will grow stronger. But if the arguments are constant, toxic, or disrespectful, it might be time to reassess communication patterns — or seek help together.
❓3. How do we rebuild trust after it’s been broken?
Expert Answer:
Trust can be repaired, but it takes time, transparency, and consistent effort. The one who broke the trust needs to take full responsibility, show remorse, and follow through with changed behavior. The other person needs space to heal, ask questions, and see progress. Small, consistent actions matter more than big promises.
❓4. How do I keep the relationship exciting after a long time?
Expert Answer:
Romance doesn’t die — it evolves. Surprise each other with small gestures, express appreciation often, and keep being curious about your partner. Try something new together: a class, a trip, or even a silly challenge. Shared experiences create fresh connection.
❓5. I’m afraid of being vulnerable. What should I do?
Expert Answer:
Vulnerability is the foundation of real intimacy. It's okay to feel scared — it means you care. Start small: express a feeling, share a memory, or admit a fear. The right partner will make you feel safe, not judged. Vulnerability isn’t weakness — it’s bravery in the language of love.
