Why Your Partner Might Have Fallen Out of Love

There is nothing worse than hearing your partner tell you they want to break up. This is especially true if you thought everything was going great. How could they do this? WHY would they do this? One of the biggest reasons relationships tend to end over is one partner falling out of love. It might seem like an out of the blue thing, but it is something that has been coming for a while now, you just didn’t see the signs. People fall in and out of love for reasons unique to each individual, but down below the most common reasons are listed as to why he or she may have fallen out of love with you. 

Boredom 

Remember when you first started dating? Every day was a new adventure. Yet sadly now the only adventures you two have are deciding on which place to order dinner from. Being in a long term relationship, it’s easy to fall into a boring routine of doing the same thing day in and day out. Boredom will cause your partner to long for the days early in your relationship and possibly cause them to look for someone more spontaneous.

Grew Apart

As time goes by, all things and people change. You may be a different person then you were from when you two first started dating. Their goals and priorities might have changed. You may have developed some negative traits that changed the way he or she feels about you. Whatever the reason is, they just don’t see you the same way they did before.

Neglect

Have you been spending enough time with your partner? Constantly blowing them off to go out with friends or whatever the reason may be, will take its toll. Maybe you keep forgetting birthdays or anniversaries making them think these events don’t really matter to you, in turn making them think he or she doesn’t matter to you. Your partner might not come out and say they feel neglected, but their behavior will change.

They met someone else

Whether it’s a coworker or an old ex, there’s someone else in the picture. Men and women who are happy in their relationship won’t usually go out looking for someone else, but this brings us back to the reasons above. They are NOT happy with you. There are two things you can do here. If you feel you two were truly meant to be together, you can try to spice things up and attempt to spark some attraction again. Otherwise take it as a lesson learned and keep these things in mind when you start your new relationship.
