There’s One Big Misconception About Falling Out Of Love
People like to think that falling out of love happens to couples who are incompatible for whatever reason or shouldn’t have been together in the first place.
Falling Out Of Love Can Happen To Anyone
But the harsh reality is that falling out of love can happen to any couple, even those in the healthiest relationships. So, why do people fall out of love?
Here Are Some Reasons Why This Happens
There are several reasons someone can fall out of love with someone else: Some of those reasons include:
Broken trust, lack of communication, the expectations one had going into the relationship were not met, and lack/loss of intimacy.
Some More Reasons Include:
Some more reasons include taking each other for granted, you/your partner started prioritizing others over the relationship, or someone stopped putting in the effort.
Let’s Look At Whether Falling Out Of Love Can Be Prevented
The answer is yes and no. This is true because love is more than an emotion. It is a choice. You do not choose who you fall in love with, but you do choose who you love.
Love Is A Commitment
Love is choosing to commit to someone long after the passionate, lusting, infatuation period fades out and you see your partner for who they really are.
What Can You Do To Prevent Falling Out Of Love?
You can choose to put in the effort, develop better communication skills, and work to keep that spark alive.
However, Each Person Has To Make That Choice For Themselves
You can save yourself from falling out of love, but you cannot keep your partner from falling out of love.
Your Partner Has To Make The Same Choice You Do
You can do your part to make a choice more enticing, but you cannot force someone to stay in love with you.
You Have To Do Your Part And Hope They Do The Same
I’m sorry for those hoping for a different answer. That’s how love works. If you are afraid you or your partner are falling out of love, take time to talk about it and go from there.
