People fall in love for so many reasons and in any time. It is normal for people to fall in love and time comes when they fall out of it. Reasons vary from person to person. Some would go out of it because they became fed up of their partner's shortcomings and lapses..others would be they just got bored of being together with the same person for a long time. And then, the most common reason is, they have found someone else. They have found a new interest and a new love which gives them more excitement and thrill than their partner. So many reasons there is but it depends upon the person concerned. There's a saying that goes "sometimes we have to let go in order for that someone to realize our worth"

I think this is possible. Some people just simply drift and grow apart. It is even possible that, yes, one day, they wake up realizing they just want out of the relationship. Of course, I'm sure something must have triggered this long before. Maybe subconciously too. It's a sad reality actually.

Well they can fall out of love when one does not wanna give any chances at all to go on. I think it's part of falling in love when you tried everything still somehow it did not work out in the end no matter how many years that relationship is. For me it's no one to blame but the time it's self. Well in the beginning their is always to much love cause when you feel love your blinded with your feelings and emotions,you get along fine,but somehow even your a different identity you still have life to persue on your own,and it's to late to know that one can't understand it and got fed up and alot of reasons. Like incompatiblity one gets bored of the other or the romance stop,even your communication even your staying in one roof. Well it happens. In love you can't ask for a return. Nothing in this world can stay permanent but only your self. Have a nice day!

I don't believe in falling out of love, For me true love stands till the end of time, and i think you have to continue to be friends and put god at the center of your relationship.

I think people can fall out of love just as easily as falling in love and for many of the reasons already mentioned. And sometimes if a person is in a really bad relationship, say an abusive one, then the love they once felt for that person can just be killed off by the abuse.

Even married couple fall out of love. Like a plant, you have to nourish your marriage. If either spouse stop making an effort to rekindle their love everyday, then the marriage is bound to fail.

I do think it's possible for people to "fall out of love." People change and sometimes a person can change so much and grow apart from someone they love so much, that it turns out they are too different to even be together anymore. I think this mostly happens when someone is unhappy or meets new people, but you never know. There could be many different reasons. I try to remain close to my friends and family and confide in them in hopes of never growing apart from them!
