that's why it's always vaguely surprising that people (other than me) get tired of them-- ideas come and go-- like fads. they love them and leave them. not me.
some people do leave, yes it's true. claim a pairing is dead (though i personally think it's only waiting to be revitalized) or all written out or more.
but there are others who simply love many pairings, have more than one OTP. i've seen it in others and am seeing it in myself. it's the difference between monogamy and polyamory, only applied to ficcing, i think.
but truly loving more than one pairing doesn't mean you love them any less. it's just a different system.
