I don't think you're out off lovvve. sometimes you really just need time to yourselffff. & not with your boyfriend... just hang out wth your friends for a while or by your self, and then chill with him

you'll miss him and wanna hang out sooner or later :) [most likley sooner]

Dear Falling Out of Love,
Somtimes you can feel like you're spending too much time with your boyfriend. It's okay, you just need some space. Tell him this, if he really likes you then he'll respect your decision and allow you some time apart. Just make sure you make it clear that you still like hanging out with him. We don't want a "Friends: Ross and Rachel: We were on a break" thing to happen. If this doesn't work and things get worse, maybe you need a step foward in your relationship to make things stronger or maybe you need an actually break, one where you don't see other people, just take time apart to sort things out. If it's not meant to be then it's not meant to be. I hope this helped.

maybe you just need some time alone. i dont mean break up with him. i mean like girl time. like reading magazines painting your toenails that kinda garbage. sometimes we need that lil female break. maybe things have gotten to where the passion has fizzled out and you need to bring it back. dont break up with him and explain your feelings to him. i assure you arent out of love unless you are desiring other men, then that may be an issue to explore. well good luck hun. also remember in your lifetime it will feel like you fall in and out of love alot even when you are married, but you must look at the big picture such as what stress are you under. it can make you feel immune to taking in love at times. best of luck keep me posted

Yes! You can fall out of love. The way sometimes you wonder why a certain person was ever your friend you can wonder why you were head-over-heels in love with someone.

flyingtomato317 answered Saturday January 14 2006, 3:17 pm:
well the first thing is, why do you want space? Is it because you want to explore more with other guys, or is something wrong with him, or do you just want to do other stuff. Having a relationship is a big commitment and we all know that they have there high and low points, it wouldn't be any fun if you were just coasting along day to day. If you think that you're problem is one of the first two, then things are definitely going wrong in your relationship. The best thing is communication. For all we know, he could be feeling the same about you, he's just to scared to say anything. Boys are confusing like that. But now if its the third choice, maybe you've been spending a little too much time with him and you want your independence. Maybe it would be good if you took a break from him for a little while. Not a total break up, but just take a week or so and recoop and get all the things straight in your mind. Then go back to what you were doing. But the main thing is to talk to him. He needs to know how you are feelings. Guys definitely don't have a clue on what girls are thinking and the best thing to do is just come out, plain and simple, and say exactly what you mean. WE hope this works for you. We wish the both of you luck. Be careful though.

you're probably just going through a rough time with him at the moment. try maybe taking a break from him for a few days and see if things get better. Or go out an have some fun and do something that you both love to do.
just give it some more time and if things really don't work out then.. i would call it quits with him and move on, though that could be tough too.
hope things get better!

i dont think you can really fall out of love.. it just means maybe you were never really in love. like i mean i know you really really like it but love lasts forever and nothing can stop it. and if your in love you can fix it somewhat somehow

sizzlinmandolin answered Friday January 13 2006, 9:08 pm:
I don't believe that it's possible to stop loving someone. I do, though, believe that it's possible to stop liking someone. Love lasts forever, but to like someone is to like what they do, who they are, and everything. Everyone changes sometimes. You still love him and things can work out, but they may not. What you need to do is figure out if you still like him. Ask yourself these questions. Does he make me happy? Do I enjoy being with him? Remember that love and attraction aren't the only things that you need to have in a relationship. Things like common interests and similar values are part of compatibility. My advice to you is to think about it, talk about it with him if you feel comfortable with it, and wait it out until you are more certain of the reasons behind your feelings. I wish you the best of luck and I hope everything turns out the way that you want it to. :)

I had been going out with my boyfriend for about 6 months and i thought that i loved him but i wasnt in love with him so we took a break it didnt take me long to realize how much i actually cared about him and didnt want to be without him...maybe you should take a break and see if you really want to be with him i think you would know what you wanted then

helpachick answered Friday January 13 2006, 6:08 pm:
hey! well the way i see it you can do one of the two things...
1. spend less time w/ him than normal, and you will most likely miss him more and so you will really cherish the times when you are together

or

2. maybe you are just not as into him as you used to be...and you should move on. think of it this way; are you missing HIM or the IDEA of him? my guess is him, so personaly i would go w/ choice one, but maybe seeing somebody else for a while wouldnt be bad; hanging out w/ someone you REALLY want to.
