In a moral and ethical perspective, we compared conceptions of women interviewed in the past with those of women interviewed nowadays about the changes in the love relationships of couples, in general, in the last decades and the current and future expectations of said relationships. Fifteen women in the past (Alencar, 1993) and 15 women in 2013, who were living in conjugality with men, without children, between 20 and 30 years old and in the middle class, were interviewed. We used a semi-structured interview script. We prioritized qualitative data analysis (Delval, 2002). We found that all respondents stated that there were changes in love relationships from couples in general, from one generation to the other, and they emphasized that, in the future, there will be a diversity of loving relationship forms. We also verified that the majority of the participants stated the possibility of the couples in general to maintain love in daily life. Considering the answers and the most recurrent arguments, the women interviewed in 2013 highlighted women's freedom in current relationships and, as a justification, emphasized women's connection with society, they mentioned religiosity as an argument for the possibility of love remaining in conjugality and stated that in the future there will be persistence in marriage. In turn, past participants emphasized the shift in roles in the labor market in the younger generation, and as an argument, they mentioned the connection of people/groups, they highlighted experience as a reason for the possibility or not of love enduring in daily life and they stressed that, in the future, there will be more freedom in love relationships. We highlight that this study contributes to research on love relationships and love, to support intervention proposals in education on moral values and that it provides theoretical reference for practitioners working with the subject in question.
