<human>: Can you provide a brief overview of the text?

I've been with other girls, and even had a longer term relationships, but never felt like I was actually in love until now. I fell for the girl who is (self proclaimed) "hard to date", but I love her!

She's "hard to date" in part because she hasn't dated for a few years and I think she's been kind of cold since then. Bad relationship experiences had her turn herself inward, and focus on herself. It took a lot of convincing to get to where we are today, but she says its the healthiest, most comfortable relationship she's ever been in.

We get along great--see each other everyday and spent tons of time together. Sex (when we can! difficult living situations for us both!) is also amazing. Sometimes we'll spend hours together laughing, kissing, doing what couples do. and sometime its like a friend, a kind of flat intonation in conversation and seemingly less passionate. For example, the night before a big job interview she seems distracted, not passionate about me, and i have a hard time making her laugh (even though she says I make her feel comfortable), even though we spend the entire day together.

Typing this I think I realize the answer--that I'm being incredibly needy and insecure, and maybe this is just normal.
<bot>: First time in love; should a couple feel a burning passion 100% of the time or is it normal to sometimes feel like friends?
