A member asked:
Do you ever lose ability to love adults?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Our capacity to form loving attachments is fairly fixed by the time we become adults. Barring brain damage, development of some severe mental illness, etc., an adult should not lose capacity for loving attachment to others.
