Agree wholeheartedly! (and shockingly late with replies)
Personally, my love takes root where there's care and compassion. Lust and excitement are FAB! *g* but the rest stays around for longer and adds more value. I remember a school friend's mum telling us we should look for a partner who's "kind". We rolled our eyes at the time at such pragmatism - we were all lusting after Paul Newman, who of course may have been very kind, however I was rather more interested in other things *heh* - but of course I've discovered over the years she was right :).
