Real long-term love is not crazy, heart-beating, addiction feelings (that's unsustainable). It's something much more subtle, and it's something that happens over time.
From what you've described it dosen't sound like the feelings you have for OM had reached the "mature love" stage. Is sounds like the bio-chemical stage of "strong attraction" and the crazy drug-like feeling of a "crush." It's a great feeling, but it's not yet love. It's an earlier stage. There's always a chance early love can turn into mature love, but that's a gamble. I personally would never recommend anyone gamble their family on this type of possiblity. The statistics are just too low, the potential for drama and damage too large.
There is no arriving, ever. It is all a continual becoming.
