“Love Fatigue”.

A term of my own creation. Love Fatigue – “Refers to ‘a chronic or enduring feeling of being unable to love anymore.”
Spouses, Parents, Teachers, Friends, and Pastors are all affected by the presence of this often un-diagnosed condition… a subtle but devastating condition known as ‘Love Fatigue’.
Maybe that’s what I’m experiencing now

Who will take me out of it???

Relative to my experience of love stuff, this looks like a mix up of several things. I can understand being fatigued due to caring about someone who behaves dangerously, or callously, and therefore is a challenge to have deep feelings for. I've been there, done that. But it never interferes with my OVERALL ability to love, just my ability to deal with that particular person.

The only thing I can relate to your "love fatigue" idea, is that from time to time, I have come to have the sense that in order to GAIN someone else's love, that I have to perform too many "stunts" for them; jump through too many hoops, avoid too many "red flags," and the like. I've run out of the faith required to feel "loveable" many times.

What you're describing seems different. Especially since you seem to expect someone ELSE to solve it for you.

In all the cases where I've felt emotional fatigue, I've done the same thing I do when I've suffered physical fatigue: take a break, until I feel better. I can't see where someone else coming along and doing ANYTHING, would restore my emotional energy.

Why would anyone want to go thru the trouble of teaching someone to love? Who has time for that?

Love is only experienced within.
Love is a feeling.
If you are able to feel love, you don't have love fatigue.

If you 'think' you feel love from another it is your impression of love from their demonstration. The love you feel is within you only.
Love doesn't build up to fatigue levels.
No emotion does.
Its all how you understand yourself and understand your emotions.
If you are able to love anyone, you don't have love fatigue.
