I don't think true love can be shut on or off, but other people seem to do it all the time. Look at how lots of people fall madly in love all the time, and a couple years later they are hating them.

they normally get back together, or that 'hate' is false, or they feel so strongly because they genuinelly do love that person.
i think there is no way you can turn true love on/off.

I think a lot of people think they're in love when they're actually still in the throes of infatuation or lust. When that wears off they realise they're nothing there.
Like the people who get together and have a great time during the 'honeymoon phase' of the relationship. Then, when that calms down, they realise there's really not much holding them together, even though they've been telling everyone they're in love.
They say that when you're in love, you know. I'm not so sure that applies to everyone.
As for the people who are love but then switch to hating someone when communication and the relationship breaks down, very often that degree of hate comes out of their emotional involvement. If you've invested a lot of yourself with someone, then your resentment of them when you fall out is going to be so much stronger than it would be if you broke up with someone you never really cared much about.
When you share part of yourself with someone, it really hurts to have that thrown back in your face.
You can't switch love on or off, but it can turn sour when things don't work out.

I'm not being pessimistic at all. But I believe all of what I said is true. If you give so much of yourself to someone and it doesn't work out, then of course you hate them. But it doesn't mean you turned the love tap off and the hate tap on. One is born out of the other - the intensity of emotion comes from the same place.
As for me, I've been in love for about four years now. I'm really happy, but it's a totally different thing to that initial rush you get when you're first with someone and you don't know them too well. And I think that buzz is what a lot of people confuse with love.
I know that if things went wrong in my relationship I couldn't just decide "oh well, I'll stop loving her." It would really hurt me I think, and I would probably direct that at her. But only because I love her.
With my ex-girlfriend it was a different story. We'd been together a while, and things weren't going great - we were living in different places, hanging out with totally different kinds of people. When it ended I thought I'd be distraught because I figured we'd been together so long I must have been in love with her. But I wasn't any more. It had dried up a while back, it's just that neither of us noticed cos we were too busy with our seperate lives and trying to see each other at the weekends. Pretty soon I realised it was all for the best, and I got over it really quickly. So did she.

sometimes if you love someone but you'rre in a position wherre you can't be with them, orr they don't want to be with you, you find a way to trrick yourrself into thinking you don't love them, often turrning it on it's head totally and finding ways to hate them, to make it easierr on yourrself... and forr a while you believe it, but all it takes is one worrd and you'd go rrunning.
