Is love fading? Sometimes we see other people ending their commitment for each other, and their saying "My love for you had faded". Well, I think what they felt wasn't really LOVE. It was just an infatuation. That's why it's easy for them to break up. You agree with me?

Love from GOD does not fade. The romantic love that we feel as I believe it fades. That's the truth.

However, the love that we feel for someone or somebody or anyone, even true love may fade away. I know of some people who have felt "true love" and yet afterwards after the demise of their loved ones, they do find another person to love. :D The only love that does not fade is the Love coming from God. (There are 3 types of love also: Agape, Philia and Eros. Of these three, Agape is the greatest for it is considered brotherly love. That applies to us people. But then the love that comes from God never will fade. Every love that you could think of in this world as its end.) Good day to you too! :D

I dont believe that love fades. I think that thje people ending their commitements with one another are simply because the person they committed themselves too was obviously "not the one". i believe in the saying that theres that one specil person out there for you. therefore, all who are not happy and end their marriages didnt not find "the one" and the one is still out there looking for them. Yeah sure it coulde been infatuation or even lust that is why is is so easy to just let go and move on.

Yeah it is true I think that love "doesnt fade".. only infatuation & lust do. & Of course I believe Mr/Mrs right is out there for each and every one of us. If you encounter someone you thought was "the one" and it turns into a disaster.. you know why, because he wasnt the right one. I was raised to believe that and I think I will raise my child to believe the same and also that God is the Creator and that he shall help us more then anything to find that special person and to be happy.

unquestionably love is fading day by day.people are more busy running behind money and fame.the frame of mind of people ar business oriented now,they think about gain and profit rather than humanity and love.all relationships are becoming just name sake contracts and love is now confined to movies and books.i really wonder when would people realise that there are things that money cant buy.all of us should not forget that there are times when money doesnt have even the value of paper on which its printed.

For some people it does, but for some it does not. Love is strange if you think about it.

I fully agree with you. True love never fades. It is only the true love that remains for the life time. It is possible that the circumstances may not be favourable for a person and so he or she may not be able to show love, show concern, offer help or do something to say the love for other person is still alive there in one's own heart. However, that does not mean that the love has faded. Most of the times the circumstances of the person are responsible for some sort of behaviour of a person which we call as fading of love. If the love fades away then it was not the love but simple attraction for the other person which has faded away.

Simply put true love never fades- whatever the circumstance. It can still be painful and crappy but doesn't fade! It's with you and that person remains in your heart and soul forever!

Ya I think you are right because we don't know the meaning of love actully we can't explain love. This time we do prefer atraction only we don't prefer love. So some time just be atract another person (women) than we do some commitment her/him.

Love may fade due to several reasons. One is when you are maturing your thoughts and preferences grows and what you love then will be replaced with other interest. Like when you are 10 or 13 you love toys such as robots, convertibles and such. When you grow to be 16,18 or early twenties, you still love toys, but no longer robbots you perhaps like bike, computer games and such. You love girls with long hair, who wears mini and sexy. When you grow to be 40 you may still love toys but it may be others that you had previously. lol... am I reading you, or way far off ... At any rate enjoy youth

I don't think that Love fades through time instead it's the other way around..for me love is like a seed that keeps growing and growing everyday..so just like a seed we should take care of it well and don't let it die..but we also couldn't say that love that fades away is not love at all..it can still be considered love but it was just not taken cared well that's why it eventually fade off.

Yeah, I agree. I haven't been inlove and I can't say 100% full agreement but I don't think love fades. Love is eternal. It doesn't change no matter the consequence, no matter the situation or circumstances.

I guess love does fades... Or maybe sometimes, we are too busy to rekindle the sparks in our relationship? Thats pretty sad... I cant imagine such a thingy happening...

I don't think the problem is that love fades, I think that people change. When people change then it makes you look at them differently and maybe feel differently also. Also I think that some people just give up to easily. I think sometimes peoples feelings are mislead....when times are hard and your having a lot of stress you think that your love fades. But really it hasn't faded your just trying to take an easy way out of the stressful situation. I do believe the old saying "Time heals all wounds".

The really love could not fade because of the time ,the region and the trouble that happened.To find a really love is difficult ,so when you find you should cherish and appreciate you got it .
