Too many people get burned by love, they then find comfort in weighty religious writings. And shame and guilt come upon us.

Shame and guilt are artifacts of medieval Western civilization. Native peoples from around the world knew little about shame and guilt.

How then can a noble love be sanctioned if the lovers are not manageable for the religious authorities via shame and guilt?

Anyway, our love could have lasted all without the others. I mean, is there not a limit as to their demands for compliance?

After finding our love, we were going to be exclusive of each other, meaning you or me were not looking for greener grass over the fence. Right?

Yes, none of us would have had any reason to look because we were going to provide for all the intimate needs and wants of each other.

Juliet, that's very idealistic, though. I mean, how can just one person provide all that for another over such a long time?

Romeo, are you waffling? What are you saying? You're a monster!

I am not. It's just, like, is all that possible? I mean, what do I know today about my needs and wants in 25 years? Or yours.

And how do you know that you will be able to take care of these, my newfound needs and wants then?

We do not have to think that far ahead of ourselves, Romeo. Nobody knows what will be in 1 or 25 years.

Ah, good point. I guess we'll just keep working on ourselves and our relationship together.

Ongoing, reciprocal enchantment and surrender is the secret sauce, Romeo. Is that how love can last?
