Love does fade, if you let it. It takes time, but soon the wound will stop hurting quite so much and you slowly learn to live with the pain you have been through. One day you find that you can wake up and get dressed without crying; a few days later you might find that you can listen to your loved one's favorite song all the way through. The love will always be there. That experience is yours forever. But you slowly start to live with the pain as it becomes a more distant memory. If you are willing to let the pain go and become distant to you, if you do not hold it close for fear of losing it, you can live with the pain and learn to love again.

Well? To be honest its not the "love" fading away, its just a lack of scheduled activity that's causing a void, all the time you used to spend with the beloved or thinking about them

Because, possibly, mentally you have not made the decision to let go. You need to give yourself some pampering and have fun time.

Because people always curious and think what would happen if i did not leave him, Can we worked it out and stay together etc. So it always hard to let that curiosity go and also the love for them. It just need time and patience . Let time fix everything.It will be fixed just take a little while to forget.

Love doesn't fade because it is an emotion. An emotion that one inflicts in another and even though we get over our past relations we always feel something

We should all go through a healing process in order to get our feelings in place. It's important to express them instead of shutting them down. Time and self care will be the key for healing.

Because you're habituated to them. You've been with them for so long and after it's over for a long time you'll always find an empty space in your life where they resided.

People leave foot steps in ur heart. No matter how many come and leave their memories and times will always remain. People are put and taken away from your life for a reason. Is all about seeing the bigger picture and accepting where you are now and how can you move forward with all the memories and times in a positive direction.

Maybe because it was there so long that you're now so use to it, and it causes you to miss it and want it back.

It is difficult because you find them so intriguing. It will be difficult, but over time, you will learn to accept the challenge. The love will always be there, but you can control how large it appears. In other words, you will always love them the same, but you will eventually move on (even if it feels like you never will) and then the love is hidden away.

Love is something you feel inside for someone or something, it helps us to grow emotionally. Sometimes it fades and other times it stays with us forever. Importantly, We need to love ourselves first before we can effectively love another, we need to love ourselves. It is important to provide yourself self care, and understand that no person is perfect. Know that everyone including you, deserves to happy and loved. But we can’t expect to get that love from someone else, it needs to come from within yourself. Understand you are never helpless, you need to find your inner strength and love yourself from within.

When someone has been a part of your life and they suddenly leave it tends to create a void emotionally and that's completely human. In fact it shows you really cared. Love doesn't have to fade away that's the beauty of it instead you find people who love you more and you love them more as well and eventually that void no longer exists. The passion, care and love for other people fills in and makes you feel complete again. Time is all it takes. As the time goes by you'll see yourself no longer feeling that void again. Time will heal it.
