Why is it that even after a failed relationship you still love that person?

Answer 1

becas it not as easy as deleting a name from the database

Answer 2

You know for me in every relationship I have had with another woman, each in their own way, contributed to who I am today. I do not think much about the women I only had a "physical" relationship with though. You know very hot sex, almost addictive in its true form. There was no depth there. No emotional connection and definitely, for lack of a better word, a soul connection. However there were two women that I had a relationship with that I still love and I still have as friends. Why? Because they were my friends first foremost in the relationship. So there was empathy, compassion, and an emotional connection. Yet I outgrew both relationships and although I felt like I had severed an appendage moving on, I knew it was vital for my growth. But I will always love them. I don't know if it was a "failure" Perhaps society tells us if a relationship ends it is a "failure" but I don't believe that because I have been changed so much for the better having been in relationship with these women.

Sweetie,once you give that love to someone,you dont get it back.Even after the relationship,you still love them deep down as just because it ended your heart doesnt stop feeling for that person.This is why we feel such pain when the relationship ends.You cannot just stop loving someone,but you can fall for them so quickly.Reguardless,once the relationship begins and love arises,the love you get them will never end.However,you can also love someone in the future. No love,reguardless how many you love will be exactly the same.Good luck hun,and have a good day!!

Answer 4

When we a form bond with someone our brain creates imprints memory information about the person in different areas associated with memory and pleasure etc. These areas often work in conjunction with one another and when they are activated they often trigger an emotional response. This response is strengthened with attachment. For example I love chocolate when I smell something chocolaty the pleasure center of my brain and I desire to eat something chocolaty. Sense love is the strongest force in human nature( The World) It causes the strongest bonds in the and thus is hard to be broken(forgotten easily). "Better to have love and lost then never to have loved at all".

Answer 5

Well it depends on how much of an emotional attachment you had with this person, If it was basically a physical love then you never really had love, but if it was an emotional and mental attachment as well as a physical attachment well then, you have to figure that this person was a part of your life for a certain amout of time :)

Answer 7

It might not truly be love. It may be that you're so used to the other person being a part of your life, that it's hard to let go.

Answer 8

because there is much more to the relationship than the failed part. You brain recalls the good parts fondly.
