What does lack of love mean to you? To what extent can lack of love affect a couple according to you? Is this the main reason for divorce? When you hear lack of love, what does this sentence reveal to you?

Personally, i think that lack of love means that you didn't know how to handle your relationship and that you lost everything, now you should turn the page and try to start a new life

"Lack of love" for me is lack of attention and care towards the partner, not enough understanding between them, perhaps insufficient mutual respect. And as you say, the loss of control over many issues within the relationship. Forgetting about the reasons why you are together. All kinds of factors could lead to lack of love.

According to me, lack of love means 'not receiving the love we need to feel complete'
It can lead to divorce,e.i, no more sex, no affectionate words and cuddles ...
Lack of love reveals that the person isn't satisfied by his relationship, he is thus frustrated

lack of love simply means that there is no love at all in the couple. this is why it ends in divorce. a couple's relationship is founded on love. but when this love is no longer there then the relation has no reason to be. this is what lack of love means.

"It is not the lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages." - by Friedrich Nietzsche

How do you find this? I feel there's a lot of truth in this sentence!

For me "lack of love" are all these issues that at first made the two persons fall in love and wanna live a relationship together, that are no more present. It's the new presence of other issues making communication level between them get down, fights arising, incomprehension, lack of elements that could help them solve problems more easily (like compromising...) and other such things.

A very strong an revealing sentence! Well, it means that we need a lot of discussions in a relationship, we need to go out, share some hobbies etc ... is n't it?

well i would say that LACK OF LOVE is no more prepared to accept the person as he/she used to be, it's lack of understandings, imposing oneself on the other, make her/him do whatever you want and not what she/he wants, i think this occurs because of lack of TRUST in a relationship, which leads to divorce in almost all cases.

Lack of love means lack of sex and understanding. We need much sex for a couple to be balanced or else we are frustrated and this causes a lot of problems. We always argue for nothing and think that the little matters are big ones. We miss the little thing that sex gives us in our body lol

So it's becoming unprepared to cope with our partner in any way just like that? Aren't we supposed to be prepared for everything before engaging ourselves in a relationship?

Lack of love... Lack of moments enjoyed together..intimate or romantic moments or anything that a couple lives as such. Lack of mutual respect, of understanding between the two. Lack of possible complicity between them. Less caring for each other. Feelings perhaps not strong enough to keep each partner from wanting other things (types of relationship, simply someone else)
