Do you think we can fall in love again after falling out of love with the same person ?

Actually yes, it's called marriage. We fail to give our relationships a fair chance by being under the false impression that two people can stay "madly in love," for more than a few years at a time. when in reality, that "madly in love" fades, and we are left with real love. True love is understanding and a wanting to take care of each other, even and especially after the "madness" fades.
Experts tell us that in a long term relationship, both people won't be in love with each other at the same time through out the entire relationship, but will be in love at the same time at some point if the relationship is given a fair chance.
@calicuz yup there's actual science behind it

Love in a long term relationship can be like a roller coaster. Lots of big ups and downs.

If you are very lucky, and you wish to stay with the same person, as I did, for 25 years, you might eventually arrive at a place where your emotions are confined to realizing that if that person died, you would be crushed, and wanting to cook nice meals for them, and wishing to take care of them when they become ill.

However, I should point out, if your partner is continually abusive, even [i]those[/i] feelings won't survive.

You're lucky if you can fall in "like" again.

All things are possible... this (assuming it was love and not an infatuation), I think, depends upon the emotional damage done and the events that caused a person to fall out of love with another.

Sure it's possible. I'm not sure I believe we ever [i]fully[/i] lose love for someone we once felt love for.

@Sunrises You can love someone but not be in love with the person.

Yeah. Of course. Love happens and love can be extinguished. That means love extinguished can happen again. People change and that's okay. Sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. Sometimes they focus elsewhere, sometimes they love more intensely.

I have done this and had this done to me. Life is complicated.

You can fall into an emotional state, many people identify as love, many times with the same person.

But that does have much to do with a decision many people have made and succeeded at in loving a person until they die.

When those circumstances arise, I'll always recall why we broke up in the first place.

Yeah.
If both people still resonate, yes.

All depends on the circumstances
