Timetable of luurve:
0-14 days. Look at each other nervously. Dare I, don't I?
14-21 days. First snog in private quickly followed by first fumble, thinking 'this IS luurve.
21-28 days. First shag and can't keep my eyes of her. Have to snog and fondle at EVERY opportunity....including in the supermarket.
1-6 months. Novelty slowly starts to wear off and reduced to holding hands and snoggin' in private only.
6-72 months. Have to do the 'right thing'. Get married, get lumbered with a 25 year mortgage and 2.5 two legged mortgages for life.
72 months onwards. Find a bit of 'new fluff' and start all over again.
FFS. Don't we EVER learn?
