That less and less people stay in love today โ or, one could say, even fall in love โ is something that most people would agree already. Therefore, I do not need to show that this is a fact. In this article, I describe the ten main reasons that explain why people, increasingly, do not stay or fall in love anymore. Reading the text carefully and reflecting upon it can help the reader in figuring out what changes they need to make in order to have love in their life.
1
People are torn between multiple things and thus unable to focus on love. In other words, they are confused about what they want in life.
2
People are weak: physically, mentally, emotionally. And love is, indeed, for the strong and brave ones.1
3
People are scared to feel. This is both because of the discomfort and uncomfortableness that people might experience due to their confused and weak state of being which cannot handle feelings in general, but also because they are scared of getting potentially hurt, something which they think they will not manage to bear. In other words, people are driven more by the fear of getting hurt (a fear which, sometimes, is actually irrational, derived from some trauma of the past) than by enjoying lifeโs great fruits. Hence, they are conformists seeking security and control, even if that might lead to an uninteresting, boring and actually monotonous life.
