Breaking someones heart is not easy to do, but what if you fall out of love. Would you rather hold on on the relationship eventhough love is no longer there? Or Just say that your fallin out of love, turn your back and go away?

are you sure that you can keep on with the relationship even if without love? well, since you say that you are only waiting for her to break the news, do something to make her say it. she will the loss of love from your part if you will no longer be available for her as you used to be. once she gets tired of keeping on contacting you to see her and you do not show up on many occasions, she will surely feel that your relationship is heading for nothing. thus, she will give you the proposal of cooling off and breaking up.

Thanks for the response abrarr! ;) Hmm.. Isn't too painful to continue a relationship without feelings? Imagine, you keep holding on to the relationship that's not important to you anymore. Why I said so.. Its because we only give importance to the people we love, right? And also, you said that you can spend your life with her without love but the purpose of not breaking her heart... What if she found out that you don't love her anymore? And what if you found out that the one you love doesn't love you but she keeps the relationship just because she don't wanna break your heart? I guess, that would be the too painful, not just too painful but very very painful..100 times.. :C

There's nothing wrong being frank and sincere as long as we say what we really feel. What's the point of holding on if you are not happy with your relationship with her. It's better to say what you feel though it hurts but you would hurt her even more if you pretend that you love her.

Thanks for respopnding daredevil_69! You're right! Just tell her what you feel so that you would not hurt her even more.

i am cruel on this one. i will say bluntly that i want out of hte relationship already. if asked why, i will just simply say that i don't see any good coming up with the relationship anymore. when i see that we can't agree on most things, i cannot see any good future about the relationship so why go on? if the guy is so insistent on keeping the relationship going, he can be sure that he will now be earning a cold shoulder treatment all the time. he will give up after sometime of trying.

This already happened to me.I've fallen out of love with my partner for four years.We tried to work things out but I guess the relationship itself has given up on us.I guess if you've really fallen out of love with the person,you can't bring it back that easily,much more you can't force it to come back.The more you're forcing things,the more it is trying tescape from you.I've realized that I have fallen out of love when I started to NOT have the magical feeling that ive been getting before,everytime im with that person. The level of my care for that person isn't that great anymore. Basically,the level of love isn't enough to make the relationship work.

I agree, It is really hard for us to say "im fallin out of love" because we know that we would hurt someone's feelings. Though we must be honest so the situation wont be complicated as what we expect it to be.

Thanks for the response kyutstudph! Right! We should be honest. Like what I've said earlier to velasco's response there's nothing wrong for saying what you truly feel.

for me, even how you look at it at different angles and you just simply fallen out of love, you still are going to hurt the person you're with. So it's better if you're gonna end it early because it still is going to end anyway, just think of a way that you're going to end the relationship smoothly and slowly, either way, you're still gonna hurt your partner.

It's better to be honest with your partner on what you really fell than to make him/her believe that you still in love with him/her.You will just hurt him/her even more if you fool him/her.If you the conscience just be yourself:)
