Best Quotes about Falling Out of Love for Him
“Tears sprang to her eyes as she hid her face in the place between his neck and shoulder and confessed what she’d known for a while now. “I think I’m falling in love with you.”
“Good thing,” Romeo choked out, his hold on her tightening to the point that it was almost hard to breathe. “‘Cause I know I’m in love with you.”@Kele Moon
♨️
“The emotion that can break your heart is sometimes the very one that heals it.”
@Nicholas Sparks
♨️
“You deserve every mountain falling. You deserve every ocean reaching. You deserve all creation crying out your worth. You deserve all of Heaven’s singing. You deserve every nation rising, but I have heard that what You want most is my love.”
@Natalie Grant
♨️
“Falling out of love is chiefly a matter of forgetting how charming someone is.”
@Iris Murdoch
♨️
“Unfortunately, this unexpected, internal condition has often been called “falling in love.” This reaction to attraction, which we could also describe as a “chemically induced crush,” is actually infatuation. Who among us has not walked into a room, made eye contact with a complete stranger, and felt an instant, unexpected rush of emotion and attraction?
Who hasn’t had that sudden impulse to look again? Why these moments happen and what exactly triggers them- who knows? But the feelings are definitely a temporary condition. The attraction is neither irresistible nor dependable. You can easily experience infatuation with people who would turn out to be relational nightmares. That’s why it is so dangerous”
@Chip Ingram

“Somebody falls in love, somebody breaks a heart. We never fell in love we only fell apart.”
@Papa Roach
♨️
“Jules has always been one of those women that men go crazy about because she has enough self-confidence to say this is me, take it or leave it. And, invariably, they take it. Or at least try to. They love the fact that she doesn’t wear makeup. That her clothes, on her tiny, petite frame, are a mishmash of whatever she happens to pull out of the wardrobe that morning. That her laugh is huge and infectious, and, most of all, that she listens. She loves life, and people, and makes time for them, and even before Jamie came along men were forever falling in love with her.”
@Jane Green
♨️
“When two people part it is the one who is not in love who makes the tender speeches.”
@Marcel Proust
♨️
“The importance of falling in love lies not in how it feels, but in what it perceives. And as always with our feelings, the key moral issue is how truthful the perception is … Falling in love is a sign that this might be someone with whom you could make a good marriage. Still, it’s not enough, because the feeling is not always as perceptive as it should be … So falling in love is not the basis for a good marriage.
It’s not even a requirement. Marriage does not depend on falling in love; it depends on the promises you make to each other in your wedding vows and then spend a lifetime keeping. As many people have pointed out, you can’t promise how you’ll feel. But you can promise to cultivate a virtue, such as the virtue of love.”
@Phillip Cary
♨️
“The hard part wasn’t breaking up. The hard part is forcing myself to fall out of love with you.”
@Dominic Riccitello
♨️
“He dug so deeply into her sentiments that in search of interest he found love, because by trying to make her love him he ended up falling in love with her. Petra Cotes, for her part, loved him more and more as she felt his love increasing, and that was how in the ripeness of autumn she began to believe once more in the youthful superstition that poverty was the servitude of love.
Both looked back then on the wild revelry, the gaudy wealth, and the unbridled fornication as an annoyance and they lamented that it had cost them so much of their lives to find the paradise of shared solitude. Madly in love after so many years of sterile complicity, they enjoyed the miracle of living each other as much at the table as in bed, and they grew to be so happy that even when they were two worn-out people they kept on blooming like little children and playing together like dogs.”
@Gabriel Jose Garcia Marquez
♨️
“Falling out of love isn’t true, it’s an excuse of those who woke up and realized they never really loved.”
@Ana Luciana
♨️
“Once fallen in true love, a person can’t really fall out of it, no matter what. How much ever you try to hate your better half, you’ll end up falling more instead. Some part of him will always reside in your heart.”
@Mehek Bassi
♨️
“You can’t look back – you just have to put the past behind you, and find something better in your future.”
@Jodi Picoult
♨️
“Falling for someone can be a lot like playing roulette. You don’t know what will happen when you place that bet, but you can take a deep breath anyway and put all the chips out there. And when the ball spins around and around, you pray it lands on your number. Probability says you’ll likely lose, and in this game of love with Leo, odds were I would lose, too, but I had to try.”
@Ilsa Madden-Mills
♨️
“Sometimes the best feeling is not falling in love, it’s falling out of love with someone who never really loved you.”
@Mitch Cuento
♨️
“I was head over heels in love with her. No, that didn’t describe it. I was tear my fucking heart out and throw it at her, beg her to take it into hers. I was falling from the greatest heights with no safety net below. I was giving everything of my own life for hers, giving up every inch of my soul so she could wear it proudly. I was a former king on my knees in front of the queen. A jester begging for a chance. I was powerless, helpless and at her mercy.”
@Karina Halle
♨️
“I will not try to convince you to love me, to respect me, to commit to me. I deserve better than that; I am better than that GOODBYE.”

Fall Out of Love Quotes
“The lucid, rational part of Billie wanted to laugh. Here she was, out in the woods of middle-class suburbia, with a man’s fingers inside her panties, inside her, a climax of unimaginable force trembling at the edge of her grasp. And the man who now plied her and played her … a prostitute. A gigolo.
A beloved brother and son and uncle, and a suspect, with too many secrets and too much sexual prowess. A man she was falling in love with. The impossibility of it, the crazy, twisted potential swept over her, then ebbed, lost in the surge of unbelievable pleasure that built and built within her like strings drawn too tightly across a fine-tuned instrument. She would die from this, die and scatter into a million fragments and drift like dust on the wind.”
@Shelby Reed

“Ran out of things to say, metaphors for you. Why the ocean’s clear instead of blue, why mountains in the distance had reminded me of you.”

“We walked to meet each other up at the time of our love and then we have been irresistibly drifting in different directions, and there’s no altering that.”
@Leo Tolstoy
♨️
“Falling out of love was much harder than Gabe would have liked. Normally led through life by the heart attached to his sleeve, finding logic in love proved to be a bit like getting vaccinated for some dread disease: a good idea in the end, but the initial pain certainly wasn’t any fun. He came to appreciate that there were worse ways to live than to live without love. For instance, if he didn’t have arms, Gabe wouldn’t be able to hide in his work. Yes, a life without arms would be quite tragic, indeed.”
@Leslye Walton
♨️
“Well, now if little by little you stop loving me I shall stop loving you. Little by little if suddenly you forget me do not look for me for I shall already have forgotten you.”
@Pablo Neruda
♨️
“I had jumped off the edge, and then, at the very last moment, something reached out and caught me in midair. That something is what I define as love. It is the one thing that can stop a man from falling, powerful enough to negate the laws of gravity.”
@Paul Auster
♨️
“I loved her for so long. Our past trails behind us like a comet’s tail, the future stretched out before us like the universe. Things happen. People get lost and love breaks.”
@Jonathan Tropper

“When I feel myself falling out of love with you,I turn the record of your laughter over, reposition the needle.I dust the dirty living room of your affection.-Love, Forgive Me”
@Sierra DeMulder

“I guess that’s what saying good-bye is always like–like jumping off an edge. The worst part is making the choice to do it. Once you’re in the air, there’s nothing you can do but let go.”
@Lauren Oliver
♨️
“Because from my personal experience, Dylan, falling in love with you is like jumping out of an airplane with no parachute. It’s fun as hell, a rush of adrenaline until the inevitable crash comes where you leave and my heart splatters all over the ground.”
@Katie Kacvinsky
♨️
“And then the dreams break into a million tiny pieces. The dream dies. Which leaves you with a choice: you can settle for reality, or you can go off, like a fool, and dream another dream.”
@Nora Ephron

“One morning, about four o’clock, I was driving my car just about as fast as I could. I thought, ‘Why am I out on the highway this time of night?’ I was miserable, and it all came to me: ‘I’m falling in love with somebody I have no right to fall in love with. I can’t fall in love with this man, but it’s just like a ring of fire.”
@June Carter Cash
♨️
“That’s life for you. All the happiness you gather to yourself, it will sweep away like it’s nothing. If you ask me I don’t think there are any such things as curses. I think there is only life. That’s enough.”

“There was some sadness in how that could happen, Tai thought: falling out of love with something that had shaped you. Or even people who had? But if you didn’t change at least a little, where were the passages of life? Didn’t learn, changing, sometimes mean letting go of what had once been seen as true?”
@Guy Gavriel Kay
♨️
“I want a life which doesn’t have you. I want memories which don’t include you. I want a heart that never loved you. I want a mind that won’t think bout you. and the last thing a whole new me who never knew you.”

“I’m falling in love with you, Mike Haines.” As I spoke, with every word his arms got tighter and tighter and his face, already close, became a breath away.”Angel, you’re already gone.” I blinked and asked, “Sorry?” “I read your diaries. I caught your pass in that hotel room. I listened to your offer to stay. I saw you wave good-bye at the airport and got your call before I’d pulled out of the parking lot. You fell with a kiss. I know, honey, because I was right there with you.”
@Kristen Ashley

“And you left your mark on me… With the destruction of us, finally, we became no one.”
@Nadège Richards
♨️
“No, it really isn’t, but trust me, getting divorced and having to start over is the least in life that isn’t fair. I had to watch the parents of a way too young girl realize that their daughter died for no other reason than people can’t figure out how to be nice to each other. It isn’t that hard, just be nice and people might not have to suffer needlessly, but that isn’t the world we live in, so young girls die. That isn’t fair, Mom. People falling out of love is vicious and it sucks, but there are far worse things you could be going through. I know that sounds harsh but it’s very true.”

Falling for Someone Quotes
“If there’s a physical component to falling in love-the butterflies in your stomach, the roller coaster of your soul-then there’s an equal physical component to falling out of love. It feels like your lungs are sieves, so you can’t get enough air. Your insides freeze solid. Your heart becomes a tiny, bitter pearl, a chemical reaction to one irritating grain of truth.”
@Jodi Picoult
♨️
“One day I won’t be in love with you, I’ll just love you and the occasional thought of you might cross my mind, but it’ll be bittersweet.”
@Dominic Riccitello
♨️
“Sometimes life was messy and got in the way. But wasn’t that part of the beauty of falling in love and being in a relationship? You figured things out together as you grew, and faced the challenges that life enjoyed the hell out of throwing at you.”

♨️
“I always wrote. I wrote from when I was 12. That was therapeutic for me in those days. I wrote things to get them out of feeling them, and onto paper. So writing in a way saved me, kept me company. I did the traditional thing with falling in love with words, reading books, and underlining lines I liked and words I didn’t know.”
@Carrie Fisher

“Falling out of love is very enlightening. For a short while, you see the world with new eyes.”
@Iris Murdoch
♨️
“People change spouses more often than they clean out closets. And every time they say, ‘This is the one. This is the person I’m going to spend eternity with.’ Then forty or fifty years go by and you’re just sick of each other, utterly sick, and it’s on to the next ‘true love.’ My question is what good is eternity if you are eternally falling in and out of love?”
@Rick Yancey
♨️
“I enjoy writing about people falling in love, probably because I think the first time you fall in love is the first time that you have to figure out how you’re going to orient your life. What are you going to value? What’s going to be most important to you? And I think that’s really interesting to write about.”
@John Green
♨️
“I think that sometimes, romantic comedies have to be really broad and that the plot of people falling in and out of love or whatever is not enough. ‘Enough Said’ had that stuff, but I wanted it to be fun and funny while also grounded in reality.”
@Nicole Holofcener
♨️
“First best is falling in love. Second, best is being in love. Least best is falling out of love. But any of it is better than never having been in love.”
@Maya Angelou

“You’re in good spirits when you create and produce great music. All situations inspire music in different ways, man, from good situations, bad situations, depression, falling in love, falling out of love. I’ve been going through all those type of things.”
@Big Sean

“The time of minor poets is coming. Good-by Whitman, Dickinson, Frost. Welcome you whose fame will never reach beyond your closest family, and perhaps one or two good friends gathered after dinner over a jug of fierce red wine … While the children are falling asleep and complaining about the noise you’re making as you rummage through the closets for your old poems, afraid your wife might’ve thrown them out with last spring’s cleaning.
It’s snowing, says someone who has peeked into the dark night, and then he, too, turns toward you as you prepare yourself to read, in a manner somewhat theatrical and with a face turning red, the long rambling love poem whose final stanza (unknown to you) is hopelessly missing.”@Charles Simic

“When we’re falling in love or out of it, that’s when we most need a song that says how we feel. Yeah, I write a lot of songs about boys. And I’m very happy to do that.”

“In great misfortunes, people want to be alone. They have a right to be. And the misfortunes that occur within one are the greatest. Surely the saddest thing in the world is falling out of love

“Some things in life were truly difficult. Finding the source of the Nile, for example. Or exploring the South Pole. But falling out of love with a man who never looked at her twice, why should that prove an insurmountable challenge?”

Falling Out of Love Quotes
“Everything failed to subdue me. Soon everything seemed dull: another sunrise, the lives of heroes, falling in love, war, the discoveries people made about each other. The only thing that didn’t bore me, obviously enough, was how much money Tim Price made, and yet in its obviousness, it did. There wasn’t a clear, identifiable emotion within me, except for greed and, possibly, total disgust.
I had all the characteristics of a human being – flesh, blood, skin, hair – but my depersonalization was so intense, had gone so deep, that the normal ability to feel compassion had been eradicated, the victim of a slow, purposeful erasure. I was simply imitating reality, a rough resemblance of a human being, with only a dim corner of my mind functioning. Something horrible was happening and yet I couldn’t figure out why – I couldn’t put my finger on it.”
@Bret Easton Ellis
♨️
“Maybe I don’t know the first thing about falling in love, because I’ve been telling myself I’m not falling for him yet. That it’s too soon. But it’s not. what’s happening inside my heart right now is way too consequential to deny. I think I’ve been misjudging the whole concept of insta-love. Now if I can just figure out how we can finish these next few years with a happy ending.”
@Colleen Hoover
♨️
“Love rips the shit out of you and puts you back together like a broken toy, with all kinds of cracks and edges. It’s not about falling in love. It’s about the landing, the staying where you said you’d be and working to keep the love strong.”

“I think it go serious in college when I found out I really enjoyed making people laugh. It makes me happy. I said I wanna be a comedian, I wanna get good.’ You’re not good in the beginning. You’re still trying to figure out what the things are that you are going to talk about, what your angle is going to be and there’s a lot of trial and error. I just never gave up and that was the beginning of my career. Just experimenting, trying it out, and falling in love with it.”
@Bill Bellamy

“People are falling all over themselves to send you free shoes and free cufflinks and colonic irrigations for two. Nobody ever offers you a free acceptance speech. There just seems to be a gap in the market. I would love to be able to pull out a speech by Dolce & Gabbana.”
@Hugh Laurie
♨️
“A child in its greed for love does not enjoy having to share the affection of its parents with its brothers and sisters; it notices that the whole of their affection is lavished upon it once more whenever it arouses their anxiety by falling ill. It has now discovered a means of enticing out its parents’ love and will make use of that means as soon as it has the necessary psychical material at its disposal for producing an illness.”
@Sigmund Freud
