The third time is not a charm for this couple.

Peter Weber and Kelly Flanagan, who finished fifth in “The Bachelor” this season.

“Love is a funny thing,” Weber, 29, wrote in an Instagram post. “It can make you feel at the top of the world and it makes you feel pain that you don’t want to. I’ve come here to tell Kelly and I’ve decided to go our separate ways.”

“While our relationship was filled with countless beautiful memories, our relationship just couldn’t work out in the end,” the airline’s pilot continued about his split from the lawyer. “Kelly is someone I have always loved dearly. I can learn more than someone she will ever understand. Someone I am so grateful for has come into my life and someone I have always loved. I wish you the greatest blessings. “
