   I.e., don't think you're ever going to feel romantic, after marriage, toward   
   someone you were never really attracted to. (Assuming you've ALREADY known   
   each other for years and    
   the feeling still isn't there.)

   I wonder what matchmakers would say about that?  Arranged marriages still   
   exist in these times in parts of the world.
