Critical reception
In a retrospective review of 'Rouge', Skylar de Paul from 'The Daily Californian' said: "(Not) The Love of My Life" continues following Yunas emotional growth. Each lyric is enunciated like spoken word, showing she wants to make her message clear: The person shes singing to is not really "the one"". Adriane Pontecorvo from PopMatters described the song "has gorgeous color to its melody, in no small part due to Yuna's dulcet scorn".
