So love goes from feeling like I’m doing cocaine to feeling how I feel about my uncle? I don’t want to make companionate love sound like a bummer. It is love, just less intense and more stable. There is still passion, but it’s balanced with trust, stability, and an understanding of each other’s flaws. Aziz Ansari
About This Quote

We can have feelings that are more intense but also more stable. That’s what makes the difference between companionate love and passionate love. Companionate love is based on trust, stability, understanding, and mutual love. Passionate love is based on intensity, being able to feel each other’s flaws, and never knowing when you’ll get it wrong.
