Is it normal to not get butterflies in your stomach anymore when dating in your 30s?

Anonymous
I'm recently divorced and have started dating someone new. I enjoy being with him, look forward to seeing him and receiving his texts (I get really excited when I get a message from him), and I am sexually attracted to him. I get turned on whenever I think about his kisses and being physically intimate. But I've noticed that when I'm with him, there are no butterflies in my stomach; no blushing whenever he looks at me. The feeling I have when we're hanging out is somewhere between comfortable and still somewhat awkward and shy. When I was dating before I got married, I almost always had a reeling-from-my-emotions, butterflies-in-my-stomach feeling whenever I was with a guy I liked. So this no-butterflies deal is new to me. Is it only because I'm older now, or does this mean I'm not really into him?

Ladies in your 30s, is this normal? And is this indicative of a potentially long-term, healthy relationship?
