Customer Reviews
Commitment or not, people can fall out of love.
This podcast very easily shares the dilemma of a person, who is in a relationship but at the same time finds someone else attractive. There is a constant struggles between being with a stable, known partner or being in a life of excitement and ecstasy. The decision can always be different, there is no right or wrong. You just have to do it and see, how it turns out to be.
