the difference between the terms hanging out and dating?

What is YOUR opinion? Does love grow over time or is it the most powerful in the beginning?

I am curious to what people think:

You know when you see those couples, who fell in love immediately and have such a strong love. Do you believe their love continues to grow or fizzles out?

Do you think that love can start very slowly and grow throughout a lifetime? Where there are good times and bad, but the commitment to each other gradually builds the love that each partner has for each other.

Who has better love- the people that start out hot, or the people that work their way through the years getting to that hot love level?
