How can one tell the spark is gone? And when is the time to say it isn't worth the effort anymore? Does anyone know the answer? If so please leave your comment here. thank you.

if you dont feel anything about the other person anymore... like when you do something for that person, you feel like its a buuurrddeen already, meaning you're doing it just because you have to and not because you want to and you are not happy with what you are doing. if you want to have a space of your own, more time to yourself, and you dont feel like talking to the other person anymore.

I guess it's very easy to determine if the so-called magic of love has gone if one or both of you who are involved in the relationship is/are no longer happy being together. If you often argue about many things, there's a big possibility that the spark might fade off. I know this because I have personally experienced this situation in the past with my boyfriend now. But fortunately, we were still able to work it out and bring the spark back in our relationship. Well, losing the spark doesn't mean at all that there's no more hope for your relationship to grow. It can still be built up if the two of you are willing to work something out just like me and my boyfriend.

A happy ending is what we all carve for. I am also no exception. And as you say, I do except a happy ending to almost all and everything. I don’t know why I expect this, but the reason might be that, I don’t like to see anyone in trouble. There is a time in almost each one's relation that such a thought comes to mind. Even if the love is not lost still such thoughts kiss a person's mind. After all, all are humans and these negative thoughts do creep up. But I think, it's your sixth sense that can gudge the right time for the wrong relationship. You know that things are not going well and you feel an awkward feeling running through you. Let me tell you that happy endings do not come easy. You have to go through all the hardships before you see the light of the day. Going through rough patches or ‘bad patch’ as it is so often called, bares fruits. If there are no pains then there are no gains. ‘No gains without pains’. You might have seen movies or read stories, where the majority of the story revolves around hardships. Once it is gone, then ‘… and they lived happily ever after’ is what we might have read many a time. If all this is not what you are experiencing then it's time, my friend.

Actually all relation will be "spark" over. No matter how many you change and restart from scratch, the same end will come sooner or later. Why, this is the same as you will never be 18 again once it's over or 21 years old again tomorrow/next year. Time never stop, which is why we all have to move on (not to another relation but to nurture and mature the existing relation). New relation has sparks,then quarrels. Matured relation has bliss and tenderness. Not much needed to be said but the deep love is there as there's understanding, and consideration for the other spouse. Seen old couples walking hand in hand? What's your thoughts and feelings when you see them?

The spark is gone when you do all the strategies to make him realized .Then nothing happened he just ignore or not listened what good things you struggle to do for your relationship. Evrything you have done , asked advices and not even change him. It still go worst and worst. Even though small things started he made it big. That's the time to give up and end all the romance you have. If there's no other way which is favorable of you then I will end up my effortbto that relationship.

When you asked her & she plainly answered "it's okay", "I'm fine", something like that nothing follows. There is no more excitement. When you feel like she is aloof & She's not answering your calls anymore.When you have done everything you have to win her heart back and she's not responding then let her go.But then try to analyze your situation or character.Of course there must be a reason behind it why she turned out to act like that or a tendency to end it over.Once you have figured it out, then it's up to you to decide whether you still want to continue or start over or end it.
