Mainly people have assumed you've misspelled "fall".
I'm going to assume you mean what you wrote:

There are a number of reasons people fail at love. The main and most common reason, I believe, is that when we (as a couples) come together at the start of our relationships, we don't make sure that we're both working with the same definitions, for things like; love, relationship, commitment, girlfriend, wife, boyfriend, husband, partner, family, etc etc.
Nobody talks out this stuff before engaging in a relationship contact. Then a few months or years down the line someone does something that offends the other's definitions and suddenly this relationship contract us broken, sometimes only one person feels like it's broken but since we don't talk to each other about this stuff we just resent the other for the offense and the relationship rot sets in. ... soon failure.
