If two former lovers can remain just friends are they still in love or never were?

It’s very possible to be just friends with someone you used to be in love with. It doesn’t necessarily mean you’re still in love with them nor does it mean that you never were.

@Helpinghands so love can change to like?

@SW-User yes , absolutely. I know this from my experience of life and love. Being in love can gradually fade away , it’s not uncommon at all.

@Helpinghands I think it would have to be completely gone for me to remain friends..

Helpinghands · M

@SW-User yes I agree with that, otherwise it’s complicated and potentially painful. After a period of time has passed and as long as you’re properly over each other , it’s very possible to be good and genuinely platonic friends who care about each other and enjoy each other’s company from time to time but have no interest in getting back together. I’m living proof of that and I’m certainly not the only one.

@Helpinghands Yeah that makes total sense... thanks:)
