Addt'l comments: Love fails all the time. But most of the time when people think love has failed, it is not that love has failed, it is that they have failed to recognize love. Many people attribute lust or infatuation to love when it really isn't.

But even if the "love" is actually "love", it can still fail, although that's usually due to the failing of the persons, not due to the failing of some ephemereal idea that mankind calls "love".
