Just wondering, if you have been dating someone for a while, say a few weeks, and things seem to be going well, how likely is it that you will start to lose interest if nothing has really changed? It might just be that you've realised you don't see a future with this person, or things aren't moving as fast as you like etc. Has this ever happened to you? How long did it take you to realise you weren't really interested anymore?

You lose interest in someone when you either see something you don't like (in them or the relationship) or see someone you're more interested in.

 

I've lost interest in days, weeks, and months. Once you realize it you either accept it and end things, or deny it and end things later. But if you're truly not compatible with something you will see it quickly. When you end it depends on how long you can make yourself ignorant to the facts.

Not really the matter of time but of what they do.

 

I lose interest quickly if they become rude and disrespectful towards others or too obsessed with sexual innuendos. I would also lose interest if they become complacent and boring but mostly over weeks and not immediately.

Dated a woman for three months and had to finally end it. Why? My feelings never progressed to the "next" level. I don't mean something dramatic, but if my feelings for someone remain stagnant, there is a reason for it and when that happens one must examine why.

 

I also saw some things that were yellow flags (personality-wise), but not certain if that was a consequence of feelings not progressing or what....
