yeah well heard a lot about this, getting disinterested in partner after the marriage, there are several reasons for this. whatever u have said correct priscajoanne10 we should not marry if we dont have a strong feeling for that special person, or its better you develop if its arranged marriage. since its one month of marriage i wish u happy married life :) enjoy your days always. About myself am yet to marry the person i love

Not sure, I'm not married. And I don't understand marriage at a young age. I'm 21 btw. Things do change after marriage..(so i've heard) but feelings for you husband or wife shouldn't. Thats why I don't believe in rushing in relationships, nor rushing into marriage. If someone find out that they don't love their partner after marriage, that should not have gotten married in the first place.

I guess it`s pretty common, but rarely discussed. I mean it would be very disheartening to realize that the one you married, you don`t love. Although there are instances that people just lose interest in their partners. I`m married for four years now, and I admit there are times when I feel like I`m losing interest in my marriage. But then he goes and say or do something that makes me think otherwise, and I feel like I fell in love all over again. I guess it`s normal with couples especially with the ones that stayed together for a long time.

In some cultures marriages are arranged so they don't love each other even from the start. Surprisingly there is a lower percentage of divorce rate for this type of marriage than those who marry because of love. Maybe because the expectations are not as high when it is an arranged marriage rather than the other one.

It does happen sometimes. But i know that love can be achieved. if it happens to me, that my wife does not love me after marriage i will make her understand that i love her lots and she will also fall in love wioth me as time goes.

That a big problem! but this situation is exist, that why many broken home, isn't? but then if this thing happen to me instead of thinking that I'm not in love with him i focus the good things that we were together happily and all his good character so that I make myself in love with him, because for me marriage is a sacred. GOD BLESS!

Yes there are marriages where there is no love after marriages...I just witnessed a couple who are going to divorce because of this reason. My nephew who has done an arranged marriage forced by his parents is not able to live his married life because he has no feelings for his wife. In this case, it is better to separate as both person will suffer uselessly.

i thinks its very difficult to live with that person who doesnt loves you...but you can try to save your marriage by compromise and by trying to make love,feel love,express love..try to impress your patner or realise your patner dat you love him/her so dat he/she become yours

I'm not yet married. But I've seen a lot of marriages with sad ending. Not all fairy tales have happy ending. Marriage is not a food that when it tastes bad, one can just spill it out. It involves decision making. That's why people should really think about getting married. However, no one can really dictate to what the heart longs. If such situation happens to anyone, he or she should learn something from it.
