I tried to start using different dating apps but I realized I just wasn’t ready to connect with someone again. I really felt like this guy and I just clicked. I’m someone who is slow to feel but then feels deeply, so it takes me a while to find someone I really connect with, and then it takes me a while to un-connect. I wouldn’t say I was devastated because we didn’t date long enough for there to be heartbreak, but I was just so disappointed. He wasn’t ready, he said it wasn’t the right time, all reasons that made sense, he was focusing on his career, this was his big break, etc. Most recently, I was dating someone who I really liked, I felt huge potential for our possible relationship, and then before it could start it ended. But I have love in my life, I have friends and family, and a dog, all of whom I love deeply. I’ve loved people, unrequitedly, I have liked people immensely, but I have never loved and been loved back in a relationship. But how? How do you fall out of love? Are there different ways to fall out of love? Does love every just go away? These are questions I’ve had, and I set out to find the answers.Ī little bit of background on my love life: I have never been in love. But what do you do when the person you love no longer loves you, never loved you, or you just need to stop loving them? You have to fall out of love. I think we’ve all loved someone more than they’ve loved us back, or vice versa. What do you do if your love is ending? Love is something that should be equal but often isn’t. When you fall for their soul, you love them exactly as they are, and for the raw version of being their true, authentic selves.I’m in love! This love will last a lifetime. You want to dive into their heart just so you can understand their sadness and turn it into something stronger and invincible. You want to dwell in the sound of their laugh because it contains light. You want to dive into how their mind works just so you can unravel the mystery of their thoughts. But if you’re in love with someone, you fall for the depth they contain within themselves. Not everyone has so much depth and substance within them. Not all people have this kind of distinctive universal beauty inside of them. Some people have the entire universe inside of them, and that’s what attracts you to them. Some people are composed of galaxies and constellations. When you fall for their soul, you fall for the depth of who they are. You fall for their soul as you see their values and morals reflect what comprises their soul.

You fall for their soul even in moments they struggle with their own belief system.

You fall in love with their faith, in their love for God, in their ability to stay grounded in their principles even if the world is against them. You fall in love with what they believe in. When you fall for their soul, you fall for their morals and values. You fall for their soul, even on days you don’t recognize them anymore as the person you once fell in love with, because you know that people are constantly evolving and nothing ever stays the same. You fall for their demons, their trauma, their grief, and their brokenness. You fall for the darkest, most dismal parts of their soul. You fall for the parts that are far from appealing to you. When you fall for their soul, you fall for even the darkest parts of it. The real challenge is falling in love with someone for the very essence of their soul. It’s easy to fall in love when everything’s beautiful and perfect. It’s easy to fall in love with the idea of being in love or with someone’s personality. It’s easy to fall in love with what’s on the outside.
