How did you end up falling out of love?
To begin with, perhaps you were never really in love in the first place. Maybe it was just an infatuation.
Or perhaps, once the veil of infatuation was removed from over your eyes, you eventually realized that your partner is not the right one for you.
There could be numerous reasons and it could be silly, and some may be really genuine. But the bottom line stays the same. You’re falling out of love and you can’t do a thing about it.
At the beginning of a relationship, the clouds are under your feet, the world is all flowery and great, the sun shines brighter and the person you’re with seems to be the best person in the whole world. When we’re infatuated, we’re all in our best exaggerated self and put our best foot forward.
Then comes the part where we indulge in romantic gestures and sweet sacrifices only to prove our love for the other person. We do things for each other to show that we care and love the person. Now this is when we start expecting the other person to respond similarly to us.
We feel that it is only right that the other person should also fulfill our needs and desires. But it’s never a guarantee whether the other person will have the heart to understand our emotions or not. Disappointment slowly seeps in and one starts withdrawing from the other.
Eventually, tantrums start to surface and soon it’s the first fight and then some more, until both of you are no longer on talking to each other.
