“I love him. So much. To the point where you won’t understand. You don’t get it because I don’t get it. It’s there. It exists. It flows. It moves like rapids through my veins. Comes with bursts and occasionally fades with the day, but it’s always there. And when you find love like that, you don’t want to give it up. But sometimes you have to and sometimes you have to give it to someone else. That’s the hard part.”
― Dominic Riccitello
To fall in love is a beautiful thing. To fall out of love- the most cruel thing ever. It is no different than lopping off a part of you you couldn’t do without a moment ago and without which your moments herefrom won’t be the same, but you got to saw the part anyway because it’s hurting by just be-ing. When you fall out of love, you do not stop loving, hell no. You are in love with the memories of what used to be and wish you could go back in time and do it all over again- but what is tells you it’s over and you are done. It tells you it won’t ever be the same again.

It may feel strange that people, who once fit your life-puzzle like the missing piece you sought all along, have suddenly morphed into a round piece for your square peg. This does not say they were wrong for you or your love wasn’t meant to be. All it does is affirm the immutable truth of life. People change as do relationships- and sometimes, when we fail to keep pace with the change, we outgrow these relationships or they slip away from us. I know explanations don’t make the feeling any easier to deal with, especially if you are the only one who feels that way but if you feel like your relationship has been on life support for far too long, you need to be brave enough to pull the plug.
I know it isn’t easy, but you can turn to the stars for help. They made you fall out of love and they shall help you understand how you are going to deal with it:

You are an impulsive imp and you know that. But know this, Aries, all that spontaneity was great during the butterflies-in-the-tummy phase but when you start to fall out of love, acting on a whim can get real ugly, real fast. You may just decide that you have had enough and walk away on a bright summer morn, without so much as a goodbye. Brash as that is, you know there’s no coming back if you think it through and change your mind later. So, if the questions are beginning to pop up, find the answers first. Learn if they are reliable and thereafter, take a call.
Taurus (April 20 – May 20)-
You aren’t the kind of person who shall call off things before you have thought it through. In fact, after nights of tossing and turning in bed and poring over a mental pros-and-cons list a million times, you shall decide if ending things is really the best way to go. You know that you aren’t feeling it anymore and being zapped of the one thing that sustains a relationship won’t help either one of you. You shall arrive at your decision, with utmost sincerity and a staunch degree of fairness. If you have got things to say, it won’t be ugly!

Your indecision and uncertainty makes it difficult for you to know if you are actually falling out of love. You may feel sudden bursts of feeling drawn towards your partner in one moment and then, feel alienated and estranged the next. As such, when you do fall out of love, you may find it difficult to draw the cudgels to do something about it.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)-
You shall allow your emotional side to overpower your better judgment. You may have fallen out of love with your partner but your loyalty and commitment exhorts you to maintain your relationship with them, so you don’t end up hurting them or causing them heartache. This may come at the cost of your own unhappiness but you are willing to pay it, in order to shield your partner from the pain.
Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)-

You are always falling out of love and can easily move on from one relationship to another, as you believe there’s something better out there. With the plenty-of-fish-in-the-sea mindset, you tend to leave with a curt goodbye and have zero qualms moving on.
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)-
Your career topples your relationship on the priority list. You are highly driven to pursue your goals and if you believe that you could do with a lot more time on your hands to sharpen your singular focus, you shall have no qualms leaving the relationship for career advancement.

You are the absolute worst when it comes to breakups. You hate confrontations so much that you shall be willing to drop an it’s-over text than have the dignity to do the deed in person. You want a quick and easy way out and are unwilling to create a scene or make the fallout ugly.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)-
You have a tendency to allow your anger to get to you and consequently, your breakups are nasty. You pull out all the unused ammo from your arsenal or sift and sort through archived slights from the past to drop incendiary word-bombs and it ends up destroying everything.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)-
You are the kind of person who knows the inevitability of the fallout but hates to clean up after a mess. So, you avoid creating one altogether. You know you have fallen out of love but you shall not say it upfront. You shall take to excuses like ‘let’s take a break’ and the like to wriggle out of the situation even when you know there’s no hope for the two of you. You’d much rather make empty promises than deal with emotional drama.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)-

You are the kind who goes to the scene fully prepared for the worst. You have rehearsed dropping the bomb a million times and you expect your partner to blow up. For all your preparation, you shall have a much harder time walking away than you imagined.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)-
Ghosting is the only way you find to walk away from a relationship that doesn’t do anything for you anymore. You simply pack your bags and disappear from the planet, because running away from an emotional mess comes easy to you.
Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)-
You fall out of love pretty easily as your partner always falls short of the ‘ideal’ in your head. However, even after you leave, you brood over the loss finding it difficult to move on.
