Nope, that's it. That's the stake in the heart.

There are so many other things a person could say or do where I would think that we could work it out with enough effort, time, and patience. But "I don't love you anymore" is final.

In order for a person to say that, they have to really mean it after a lot of thought and careful consideration. It's not a fly-off-the-handle insult you slur at someone. It's for real. If you hear these words, walk away with as much grace and dignity as you can and know that there is someone out there who will love you, and who won't stop doing so.

It would be the end for me! I couldn't be with someone who didn't love me. I really don't understand how anyone could stay after that. I have to much respect for myself to stay in a situation like that.

for me it would definitely mean the end of the relationship.for what may the circumstance the situation be one whom you love more than your life.for some1 whom you care more than urself has no right to sy that he/she doesnt love you anymore.as the relation started because the two felt that they love each other and now that that feeling nomore exists what is the value of the relationship?and where does the relationship go?
in my words it goes nowhere.
it is definitely the end for me.

I am convinced that who says that is someone who has never truly loved. The love never ends, unless unforeseen surprises or situations on the behavior of the partner.
So the mentioned declaration should not affect you too much if you think that nobody loved you therefore you have lost nothing.
I think after that you have to break with that person. If you continue with that person, in anyway, you are giving it the reason because someone without dignity does not deserve to be loved.

Good luck,

Its a very hurtful thing to hear from somebody you love.But..atleast that person is being honest with how they really feel. You can't fake loving somebody and can't live a lie.That would be so suffocating. Love hurts and it is part of life that sometimes you fall out of love. Some work on it to get the love back and some just move on. In the end I do not want to be with somebody doesn't love me!!

It depends how long you been in a relationship. Will you be seeing that person in future? Were you guys living together and then got separated for some reason? But yet the one who says " I don't love you anymore" will be the one regreting what she/he said. Its never easy to take such words as it might affect you psyhcologically and may increase the level of your stress. But if you truely love that person and devoted everything to him/her it will be painful to hear such a thing espcially if you would already know that you have sacrifice so much for him/her and just wanted him or her to be happy and love you the way you love them.
