Personally in my opinion, it's a yes, I'v been in a long committed relationship where I really loved him a lot, but I no longer liked him. I didn't like who he was as a person, I started to think he was selfish and irritating. Over the course of our relationship I hit a point where he was my biggest love but slowly after that I disliked his personality more and more. I couldn't stand being around him. But I loved him. It's weird. We did eventually end the relationship.
Have any of you guys experienced this and did your relationship survive it?
Is it possible to love someone without liking that person?

Totally. Us women, especially experience this, according to We often love someone even though we don't love what he does. The relationship is often unhealthy and when he hurts us too much, we get the strength we need to leave him.
Oh yes i been down that road and no relationship ended , selfishness kills all. relationships , if you can't. remove selfishness then u shouldn't be in a relationship
Oh yeah! I believe yours was the "Pragma" type of love. < I could be wrong 😅 but I have that love with a lot of my family members. I really don't like hanging around them or talking to them but I care for their safety and well-being. 🙏
I still love my last ex but I do not like him as a person. And never will.
I do not know why it happens... I like to think perhaps it sort of like a family member' old longterm friend. You have known them for so long it hard not to have some kind of enduring ties to them.
But it was not mean to be and no regrets from ending it.
I think what you're asking is do people fall in love and hate that they do, and yes they do. You might have severe distaste for a man/woman, but still can't help but develop feelings due to other factors of their personality.
Not really exactly what I'm asking. My question is more aimed at people who having been seeing, dating or married to someone and somewhere along the line you start to dislike them. You love them as your partner but you dislike the way the act, the way they do things, their personality traits. Most people call it a rough patch. I'm not sure though.
I understand. I also used to think that way. One of my friends asked me this question many years ago. I thought it was stupid. I thought it just means you've fallen out of love. Until I truly experienced it. I know I did love him during the time I disliked him. That was the most confusing part of it all. Happened only once and I honestly don't know how to describe it.
well yes there's women and men out there that get abused and take it just cause they love the person and considering they are abusing them they probably no longer like them
Hell yes, sometimes I just want to scream at him and tell him he's a foolish idiot and its all his fault everythings fucked up but then i don't want to upset him and I know I'm only mad because I care and I love him deep down
