how can you tell that your lover is falling out of love with you?

I think if your lover, boyfriend or husband is falling out of love when you see so many signs on him. That he is not so sweet, not so thoughtful, and he spent so little time with you. And another thing is when you don't see the spark in his eyes anymore, when you tell him that you love her he seemed so different that he sometimes would not say he loves you too. Then when you see him with somebody knew and when you confront him that's it, he would just say "I'm sorry". Oh so sad, I don't want to be in that situation. :-(

No one would be in that situation, I just dont want to be in that situation. But if that will happen to me. I would first the one to know. Because I have a feelings and instinct that he is fallen out of love to me. Its hard to confront and even face that fact. But we just have to face it and accept the truth that somethings are not constant here on earth.

Yeah Ada, There is nothing permanent in this world, only changes. No one would ever like to be in that kind of situation but sometimes if your lover doesn't totally leave you because he's falling out of love, still you suffer his reactions of coldness. I think when this happens, for example to me. I would confront him and talk to him openly about this and whatever the outcome if he doesn't want to refresh the relationship then I should be better off without him. One of my motto in life is "it's better to be hurt once and get over it that to be hurt many times over and over again'. Thanks friend for your nice reply.

Well I also remember a friend of mine who shared her motto with me. Dont comfort me with your lies, I'd better be hurt for the truth. The only thing that we can is to accept what ever happens or what ever there decisions right. Its really hard to handle that kind of situation. Letting go the one you love the most.

It's easy... When the person becomes INDIFFERENT. When he/she makes you feel that you're no longer important to him/her, when he/she doesn't want to cuddle with you and would rather do something else than spend quality time with you. That's where falling out of love begins.

Actually, I don't believe that one falls out of love, in the beginning, they were never in-love. But, that's one way of knowing if a relationship is dying, I agree your explanation.

When he is cold and does not even show any sign that he misses you then he must be falling out of love. When he would rather be somebody else than to be with you and when he can't even listen and will not even spend a moment by your side then that means he has fallen out of love and this is something really alarming. If this happens to your husband then it is about time to do something to bring back the love again.

So far it isn't happening to me yet. Even though he's a million miles away from me, I can still feel how much my husband misses me and love me. It just came my mind last night what are the possible signs to know if the one you love is falling out of love with you. And you are right it's really alarming that you must act quickly as possible to turn back the loving feeling of your lover to you again. Thanks for your response. Have a nice day!

Actually what you mentions are the signs of falling out of love. Why he is not really sweet unlike before, and why he act strange from usual as you often do when you were with him? So many clues we see from their behavior. Some are strange and some leave us a big question mark. And as a partner we have an instinct. We feel from them. That is really sad when we got in that situation but sometimes we need to accept the reality otherwise we will die thinking of what they are thinking about which oftentimes men doesn't want to reveal. It was so funny to know that at the end they go back to their wives when they are not capable to have other woman in their life. But that is true and many of them I know. Have a nice day friend!

When your lover is not doing the usual sweet things the he/she is doing before. When he/she takes you for granted and did not enjoy being with you anymore. No one would want to be in that situation, it's really sad and painful.

Yeah so painful that you wanna get over it. So, we must really do our best so our love ones will not fall out of love. We should always be sensitive to what will make the relationship lasts and the feelings will change from day to day but more love and more sweetness. Hope everybody will stay in love. Have a nice day!

Signs of falling out of love, how to tell them really? What if you read them wrongly? Some of the signs mentioned I've done them. Like not answering I love you, being indifferent, distant and cold. It made me think, was I falling out of love? Of course not, sometimes I just don't feel like saying it and that I need my personal space. I think one can only say that one has fallen out of love when there's a third party involved and wanting to break up.

i hope you can read the book, "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus". it has loads of info on the differences between a man and a woman when it comes to relationships. sometimes a man and woman look at things differently. we may say he has fallen out of love though for him, he has not. there are things that women focus her mind and attention to, very different from that of a man. but when that happens, it is truly sad. :-(

It is not always easy to see a lover falling out of love with you. Often we don't see the signs until it is too late. When a lover starts paying less and less attention to you, this is a good sign that the love is fading from the relationship. We have to nurture our relationshipps to help them develop and grow.

You will feel it. The things that he/she is usually doing has change. And spending a little time with you is one of those signs. If you wanted to save you relationship, then talk to him about it. Tell to his face what have you observed.

Friend it is nothing but feeling and expectation hurts. See i am loving my partner and if she start falling out of my love then she will try to be far from me rather than staying near and she will not be that much of frank with me. She use to avoid me and the way of talking will change automatically. Then it will feel to me then i will start thinking about it and start questioning to her. Why you are doing like this? Whats the problem? Is there any mistake from my side? like this i will ask.

Don't we all get the joy and happy feelings in the beginning. But once the relationship starts to get old, then thats when you need to watch out for signs from your boyfriend or husband. They tend to sneak up on you with a sudden change in their attitude when they're falling out of love. These are some of the signs that will give you your red flag, don't talk to you like they use too, always making up excuses why they're coming home late to you, friends start becoming more important to be with instead of you, embarrassing you in front of people, rarely tells you they loves you, talks bad about you to make you cry, and never shows any happiness towards you from like when the relationship was new.

A person is alway selfish when he faces to love.The thing that should belong to you just belongs to you,but the thing you have no luck to own won't be yours. We should always be calm.If a person really doesn't love the other guy,then you cannot save the love though you do everything. I am not a lucky guy. But...Good luck to you!

Respect is very important in a relationship. If ever the respect is gone already, that's the end of it. If you think that he is neglecting you, embarrassed you in front of many people, and denying you, think twice... he's not the man you've known anymore. You may feel it and you have to be very sensitive about it.

I think the women should ask their husband/boyfriend when the symptoms starting to get into them. Make sure they will tell you about the matters that may disturb their mind. But somehow, not all men who are acting cold towards women, having no feelings of love at all. There are time men need to be treated like boys. I guess that goes to men when dealing with women too.

Hi dear, These all are good when I think as imaginary. Unfortunate, what else to say. A time may come once to realise the real feeling of what you meant by. Waiting .. waiting .. waiting.... Regards, Thank-s

My boyfriend is so easy to read, so it would be pretty obvious to tell if he fell out of love. If he's not smiling when he sees me that's it, I know he's not in love with me anymore. With most guys if they aren't making an effort to spend time with you that's a sign. If they stop telling you that they love you then THAT is when I would seriously start to worry.

I just want to pray that let this not happen in my love. I am very mush sure that he is not going to do such to me and my love. In case he do not call me or do not response to my contact. That truly mean that he is getting out of love with me. If happens to me, i don't want to make him stay with me. Will put him lots of questions, and ll let him go if he is in love with any other person. Only thing is i want him to be happy, be with me or any one.

when the time comes that he/she doesn't do the things he/she does when he/she is so in love with you.
