Yet…could someone, if they had deeply and truly believed themselves to be captivated by love, so easily let go of it? Even if they recognized the hopelessness of it, even if they hadn’t a shadow of doubt of the sincerity of their hatred; could one fall out of love through being logical?

no.
odd that i find myself relating to this line.
and no, despite how your brain is rightfully placed above your heart, no one could fall out of love through being logical. even the Bible says:
The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? – Jeremiah 17:9
however brainiacally brilliant a person is, the heart masterfully deceives him.
but can you force it? yes
can you make it forget? yes
can you convince it to let go? yes
but only when you don’t try hard.
i know.
coz i passed this road once.
