I've been with my boyfriend for 5 months. All the important elements are there - i.e. physical and mental attraction. I love him but neither of us are 'in love' with each other. I have been in love before, he has not. I know that love can come with time but is there a time when it is obvious that this feeling just will not develop?

it can take upto two years i think. it takes that long to know it's not an infatuation and what the person is really like. five months is early days. you were in love before but it didn't last!

Love is a feeling that noone can really put into words, sure we may see a quote and think "thats how it is" but its different for everyone, love is an undescribable feeling.
Well... love don't come easy and nor does it take long, so... being 5 months together... no love feelings... well... maybe move on?
I mean you never know he might be in love just doesnt know it yet, but then you've got to think about your feelings too, do you still wanna be with him? no point staying in a relationship if nothing is progressing and your not enjoying yourself like you hoped.
Sounds like your pretty young, so sweetie... you have your whole LIFE to worry about things like that, just move on... as they say, theres plenty more fish in the sea!!
Take care sweetie xx

I think that feelings can develop as time goes on, because people can change as it grows. The real person comes out after a few months of dating and you can either like or love it. With all of that comes love or lust or nothing.

I have been dating my boyfriend for 4 months. In this situation, I would rather wait and see if anything happens, like love, to develop. I think that you would sense whether the relationship will become something more or not.

maybe better for you would be stay just friends, because if one person loves and other not it's really hard to be happy in this relationship and you never have sure will sth change for better or stay same for another couple of months, years...

You can't force love. It either is, or it isn't. Move on.
