Nope, theres no point in staying with someone if you don't love them. I'm pretty sure the longer you stay together, the more he (or both of you) will hurt when you finally do breakup.

It depends how long the marriage has lasted for. Passion and love wax and wane throughout a long-term relationship, it's natural. Some people would prefer the security of marriage to the perils of single life, too.
It's imporant to clarify the difference between "love" and being "in love". You can love someone, but not be in love with them. Many marriages are like this (or come to be like this after many years). Personally, if I end up marrying my boyfriend and we fall out of love, and as long as he still wants to stay married to me and hasn't turned into a right jerk, then, yes, I'd stay married to him. We're good friends in addition to being lovers, and since I'm a loyal person and would have pledged my life to him then I don't see any reason why I wouldn't honour that promise because I don't feel as passionate about him any more.
Now, if you're in an abusive relationship or whatever, that's another kettle of fish.

In short: U love someone your married to then the feeling changes and far too often people make the mistake by failing to realize that love has different fazes of feeling over the years. When two people are together in life each will mature as they grow older. So will the love mature. Sometimes it takes a life time to become one with another. And for those who are strong enough to hold on and not let go the rewards are indeed great.

Do you think all married couples love each other after 15 years of marriage? Ask them, they stay. It becomes a habit more than love. If they have kids, they are bonded to stay. By all means stay. Love comes back for people who stay.

well, marriage is a big step ,and i think when you got married to this person you where in love with him . so if you have kids you better search and find the qualities you fell in love with then creat things he\she loves in you to make conection between you , and if you dont have kids that means you got married not befor a long time and that means its just a level of shareing openions and find a way to make a healthy releation and if you couldnt you got to be out and do that after considerion and be sure you will be over it and haveing a place to stay and a place you are wellcomed to carry your sorrow away

first,y did you marry that person in the first place if you do not love him? what was the reason? but if you're asking whether you should still stay in a marriage for somebody you do not love anymore,think things first.exhaust all possible solutions as to whether this relationship is still salvagable.but if all else fails,then it would be better if you just part ways.

If you don't love the person, I would say no. Marriage is a promise to be with someone you LOVE forever. Though perhaps you'd be able to somehow figure out how to love that person again? If you can't see that happening, go with a divorce.

Definetly not. What's the point in being in a marriage without love and passion?

It depends. If he is an honest and a responsible who is truely love and respect me then yes,I 'll stay in he relationship and try to work on my feeling toward him. Eventually, hope that's my love for him will develope when time have grow and how we understand each other.

It never works and it'll be so wrong to put yourself through it. Working it out will be the one issue but if it really comes down to it the end has to come out.
