no i am not. i love my SO. falling in love is a euphoric state, it means anything they do is ok absolutely. they will tire of being on that pedestal. also the chances of falling off are excellent.
Well, I have only been married to my wife for 31 years, and the kind of love I feel for her is not the superficial one felt at the beginning, but a deep and caring one.
I love and am "in love with" my SO (they are different). He enriches my life in ways I could never have dreamed. He doesn't complete me, I was already complete and still am; but he adds to everything I am. I still get that feeling in the pit of my stomach when I'm around him and, at the same time, we're comfortable enough with each other we can just sit and be with each other. We hold hands often, even while just watching tv; we have special looks which say volumes; he tolerates my singing because he says, "he hears the passion and love in my voice." It's a cross between euphoria and comfort depending on the day.
And by in love I mean that butterfly feeling you get when you see them, or light headed effect however you want to describe it.
Or did that fade over time and you are now just with them due to the negative financial effects from divorcing. Or stay with them for the kids reason?
The way you describe love and the way I would describe it are not the same. Butterflies have nothing to do with the kind of love I have for my husband which is far deeper than mere 'butterflies'.
I am with him because I love him deeply. 9 years married and very happy!

i agree with you. even coming together with a person who loves you platonicly can make you feel butterflies.
being in love is exciting at the beginning of your relationship
but being in love is not exciting after some time, because it becomes an ordinary thing. but IT STILL IS LOVE.

I love my Partner deeply, we connect on a very deep emotional and physical way. We are very passionate but we never argue. Love like what we have is very rare, I feel very lucky.
After spending last weekend with my ex husband and that side of the family ( he and I manage to be friends, which truly is a miracle) I could easily see how if I would have stayed with him for our children, I would be miserable. Instead I stay friends with him for our children and I get to be happy and free, which in turn is a valuable gift for my children to witness.
