in love in Barcel

Cosmopolitan has always explored the nuances that go into making relationships work. Our now-iconic Cosmo Couples series, in which we travel the world photographing real-life partners, is proof that there's no one way to love or be loved. For the 10th installment, we visited Spain to chat with six couples about their origin stories and how they keep their romance alive.
