Story summary
  • Most adults experience passionate love only twice in their lifetime, per a large U.S. Kinsey Institute study.
  • The Kinsey Institute surveyed over 10,000 single adults aged 18 to 99 and found 14% never felt passionate love.
  • Older adults reported slightly more experiences, though the increase remains minimal.
  • Men, particularly heterosexuals, reported more instances than women.
  • The findings challenge the belief that passionate love is common and question societal expectations.
