New Relationship Energy (NRE), limerence, infatuation... getting into a new thing with a new person is intense! Brain chemistry changes, moods are affected, exhilaration abounds.

But that's a potent, heady mix, and can be addictive.

Not to mention the effect on behaviours with your existing partners.

Should we shy away from that exciting headspace? Can we manage it sensibly? How do we balance the thrill of the new with being consistent with your existing relationships, and how do we manage to avoid the addiction of newness?
