Falling in love is quite easy than falling out of love. I believe this. But I also realized it is not impossible to really fall out of love. If the one you love caused so much pain to you, trust will eventually fade. For me, the most important ingredient in every relationship is respect. If your partner loves you, he/she will respect your decisions, will never betray you, will never waste the love you invested on your relationship.
Despite how much you love the person, if the hurt is eating your heart out, you will certainly get tired..and when you get tired, you'll choose to value your self more.
In the end, you'll see yourself falling out of love from that someone 'once' special and regaining self-worth again.

I you like a person and sense that he also like you.Do not give your full trust so that you could not be fallen out of love,when the two of you has some serious misunderstandings.You are truly correct that falling in love is very sweet yet when you are falling out,that would felt like the end of your life.Study first the guy who
offers his love if it is real or not.You could really felt,sense and even eat it when
he treats you like no one else was found in earth.That you felt his love is everlasting,never fades,but just sees only you was his only soul.If that is the guy,
then grab him because you are really love and cared for his feelings toward you.

Love,to be loved and falling in love,is what we are in this world.to find our true feelings to the one and only person.It is really unimaginable that love could really make you happy,make you the flavor of the day,make so blessed,make you crazy,and it also make you wonder why you love this person or why you are in love.

That is correct. One should be very careful in choosing the one he/she should love. It is always better to be safe than sorry. It is a must to know the person well before investing in a relationship. And when the right one comes, you must treasure him/her.

Brings me down to memory lane Teary-eyed from remembering the past. But as what this guy has been telling me... past is past, leave it there.
I can say that I have felt the same way before. I fall out of love for the same reasons you said. And definitely Respect must be there in every relationship. Otherwise, someone who has been taken for granted will eventually give up and just walk away.

Sorry for reminding you your past. It's fine dear, lessons are learned from the pains, they make us smarter the next time.
Some people will take for granted our love, yet, someone better will come to share the true love with you. Respect should never be taken for granted. It is earned but we should also be willing to give it too.

You have used an important word here... "invest".
A relationship is an investment.
No, not of money, but of time and emotion. If the other person isn't willing to make or honor your investment, then they aren't worth your time.
I met a guy that I really liked, but I soon realized that he had issues. Issues I wasn't going to be able to over come, and if he wasn't willing to go half way in the investment, I wasn't going to waste the resources on him.
I'm still friends with him, but I know that the relationship isn't going to go any further than that.
And I'm willing to go further, if he were, but, I'm okay with it as it is.
Now, you could say - well, she's not looking down the road, but I did.
I was willing to be friends if that's all he wanted. And that's where it has stayed for 25 years.

That's exactly how I often describe a relationship. It is a business..'coz we invest to it, not with money but with time and attention.
Good on you, you are strong and smart in keeping the real treasure from the fancies.
Some people are never meant to be together, but it doesn't mean they didn't experience love. They had love, but they are not willing to invest longer, stronger.
Thanks Elic:)

For me, it's trust. The basic foundation of every relationship is trust. The moment it's gone, the rest of what you built to make that relationship work will crumble.

Yes, trust keeps the relationship going. And once it's gone, the love will eventually fade before you knew it.
Thanks Toni:)

Very true, if mutual love is not nourished it will fade. No matter how much time, love and effort you invested in a relationship, if your love started to take it for granted, forgot to appreciate you or left you alone even if it was just for a while...It's so easy to lose trust in the one you loved. And it's so hard to explain that your love has faded, it cannot be changed any more even though it hurts a lot to admit it, but it won't stop hurting if you keep the relationship going either.

Right. And it's hard to accept the fact that you're falling out of love with the person you once valued. Relationship should be strengthen by appreciation and understanding. Respect is given and so be earned. Starting a relationship is easy, keeping it is a challenge.

I can not agree with you any more especially"the most important ingredient in every relationship is respect."Because the feeling of love is short but the respect is forever,lover respect each other and cherish each other can lead the love walks longer,so lover can not just considering of themselves and should considering of each other at the same time.

In respect comes trust, love and loyalty. Feelings are temporary esp. when not understanding between the couple is fading. Respect is selfless love. Being considerate to your partner's feelings. Thank you:)

Yes, I agree with you. Falling out of love is the result if you are not valued as a partner. If you can't get along with each other already, one of you will fall out of love eventually. I guess it's quite difficult to the other party to set you free. There many questions to ask why did you fall out of love. They can't just accept your reasons, etc. I hope, first and foremost, when you have the relationship, both of you will nurture your relationship. It's not only a one-sided love (or relationship.) You have to trust, understand, respect, value and love each other.For that reason, some people want to free themselves and regain self-worth again. I hope all of us won't fall out of love. Happy mylotting.

Yes. That's right. Relationship is dependent to both of you. We must invest time, love and respect to our partners so as to keep the relationship stronger and won't see ourselves falling out of love. It is also important to give value to your self when you are loving someone. Self-worth should never be lost.
Thanks Angel:)

I believe that love, trust and respect goes hand in hand, especially in any relationship, more so if it is a marriage or a relationship between a man and a woman. If one of these is no longer present in the relationship, chances are it will weaken whatever remaining love they still have left for each other.

True Raine. Every couple should keep the relationship stronger so love won't leave them.
Relationship is a lifetime investment that should be well taken care of.
Thanks for sharing your views:)

I really agree with you. I think love has two aspects, to love and to be loved. When we love someone, we also want to be loved. Love won't exist longer if it is unilaterally pay without returning.

Yes, love is give and and take. Once the other is not giving, it will give the other the reason to doubt his/her partner's love. There should always be understanding in both parties.
