The answer isn't that straight forward.. Ultimately it depends on the circumstances and the person. If the conditions are right, a person can fall in love easily because love is like a seed which in the right conditions will sprout quickly and flourish. But if the conditions change even when the love has grown stronger, it will still die as quickly.. Personally for me, I'd fall out of love before you can blink your eye if the person I loved apostates or utters blasphemous words for Allah.
Also, if someone cheats on you, the love is likely to die quicker than if you are forced to be separated in other ways. So there are contributing factors which determine what happens and how. But I don't think anyone hopping about like a frog from one person to another and claiming to love them all knows what love is.
i whole heartedly agree with that.
i know for me personally, i could totally be head over heels for someone (which of course will only happen after marriage :shade
but at the same time i know that if that person was to do something i completed hated, eg cheat on me, all those feelings would be put off in a sec. yes, i would be upset, no doubt, but that would revolve more around the fact that someone i respected and who i thought i could trust, has totally back stabbed me, so all that negative stuff he may do would "unravel" all the positive things i had about him in next to no time at all...
btw, i dont mean to be nosey here, but why cant you get married to this person? why are you forced apart? i just ask, because if you are both interested with one another, why cant it go any further?
Can people fall in and out of love easily?
i know this will sound depressing but in all honesty i really and truly believe that if Allah, in whose hearts our hands in, can make us fall madly in love with someone, then He, just as easily can remove that love and replace it. regardless of how deeply we fall.
some people move on easily, some people dont and i think it may depend on how deep their feelings/interaction was...but ultimately it's definatley up to allah.
i know this is side tracked a little, but its more as a naseeha. i think the reason why people who are in love get hurt when the other moves on has more to do with the fact that they get hurt and confused...you know,you see the one who has moved on knows what they want and knows what they are after in life, whereas the one who is left behind, is confused and hurt and are left with a painful scar opened for it to continue bleeding. as opposed to the other person, they have to scar to feel that hurt. so i think that's where the hurt stems from more than anything.
