Meatloaf Moment

noun: The moment when someone realizes the limits to their love for someone/something.

Rooted from the title & lyrics of the 1993 rock hit by Meatloaf: "I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)"
Since the word "That" in the lyrics was commonly regarded as vague in its insinuation, it can also be regarded just as open-ended for everyday life.

Based on the Oprah's popular "Aha! Moment" terminology describing a person's moment of spiritual and psychological clarity.
