2900 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Is it possible to love someone but not want to be in a relationship with them because of not wanting to commit, wanting the freedom, having life goals to fulfill before getting into a serious relationship, wanting to be financially stable first. Wat do u think? Link to comment
Beec Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 It's quite possible that you want things that get in the way of a relationship, and choose those things, even though you reall care of the other person. I think I've been on one side or anoher of that coin a few times in life. Link to comment
Batya33 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Yes, it simply means the person is not available for a relationship. I have seen people overcome huge obstacles to be in a relationship and the success at doing so is mixed. Depends on a person's priorities and where on the list is a relationship. Link to comment
Daddy Bear Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 if you love someone, then you do have some sort of relationship; it just might not include the desire for co-habitation, daily interaction or a lifetime commitment. this is not only possible, it happens all the time. Link to comment

Wat do u think? I think it's totally possible - It just comes down to what you want more And if you're willing to risk losing this love. Link to comment
RayKay Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I think you can care and love for someone and choose not to be with them BUT, and there are probably many whom disagree so it is just my opinion: I think it also means that you just don't care or love them enough to be honest or perhaps you know that despite your feelings the relationship is not healthy so does make you more "fearful of being committed to it forever" or you know it is not a partnership that allows you to pursue your goals For me, relationships are about partnership through good and bad, and about mutually supporting one another through those goals in life. If you truly do love one another and have a healthy relationship being together and following those dreams are not mutually incompatible with one another. And, I also think when you don't want to commit, it is because you know in your heart or mind that the relationship/person is not right. If you want your "freedom" (freedom for WHAT exactly?) it is because the pros of being with that particular person do not outweigh the responsibilities for you. If the person is right, and you really do love them, those "obligations" or "limits" are seen as voluntary choices to be together. Link to comment
Mun Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 It's practical and if you're the person on the receiving end it's best to walk away. One thing I've come to realize is that timing is as important as feelings...sometimes more....... Link to comment
iLikeGirlsToo Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 It is possible to love someone and not want to be with. I am going thru that. Me and my ex first started dating almost 3 years ago. After a year and a couple months we broke it off. Now after two years we still love each other. I love her very very much but I don't want to be with her. I will be sweet and loving one second and then screaming and pushing her away the next. I don't know why I just get bored of her and want someone else but I still love her. 3 Link to comment
Jetta Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Yes I think you can love someone and not want to be with them. It's not easy to make that choice though, not at all, even if goes according to the logical choice. Link to comment
