How to rekindle my love for AC? :/

If you're the kind of person to whom completing everything is rewarding I would go for that. But otherwise you have to kind of come at it from a different angle and like see your relationships with villagers differently. Maybe invent backstories? Work on themes for the town to go along with them? You could make your own little arbitrary rules you choose to follow that aren't necessarily part of the game. Just whatever comes to mind, be free associative!
 
I would definitely suggest to re-start your town and try to create a theme. Try not to TT and make use of all the 4 human villagers you can to make some sort of cool backstory (like something post-apocalyptic or something like that!). Maybe make a blog to document your progress or just have fun trying to imagine how all your villagers fit into your story. If you're into completing things all the way, having the added challenge of designing four houses instead pf one can be a lot of fun as well.
 
If your town hasn't been gaining much progress or if you have villagers you don't like, start over. Basically, imo if you set one goal for animal crossing..you'll always end up setting another and so on. Try giving your town a theme (nature, city, kawaii/cute, etc) For example, my town is half nature half city. The city part is completely covered in bushes, paths and public projects. There's not a single spot of "natural nature" besides the trees I planted. All the trees that were already there were chopped down, so I made my trees in a certain order/pattern. This means no fossils, no shaking bells from trees (if the bells or anything drop onto a path, it disappears) and I can't take any fruit from my trees unless I remove my paths that are around them. To make up for that, on the other half of my town, it's complete nature. Flowers are everything, there are very few public projects (besides maybe a stone hedge, windmill, or anything used in farms or modern times involving nature). No trees are cut down at all, whatever was already on that half of the town stays on that half. The pros are I can get money rocks, shake fruits and bells from trees and I have the ability to dig up fossils. For my city side, the two paths I use are stone patterns. They're the same pattern, but one is pink and the other is gray with a heart on them. The pink patterns are made to make "roads" or paths connecting places like houses and the cafe. The gray paths are just used to cover everything else. This is just me though, I've seen some people just use paths to made roads connecting houses..while I just used them everywhere. It's time consuming, but it's fun in a way having control over what your town looks like.
