Best Answer

Detectives Benson and Stabler were partners for twelve seasons of Law and Order SVU.

Season 12 ended with a girl with a gun shooting people in the squad room, so Detective Stabler shot and killed her. But during the hiatus between season 12 and 13, Christopher Meloni, the actor who plays Elliott Stabler, could not negotiate a new contract for season 13 of SVU.

The script handled the situation by saying that Stabler had quit over the shooting incident. Elliott didn't appear, his resignation was discussed by the other characters so we would know why he wasn't there. That's a good sign because they didn't kill him off. It's possible that, if he can negotiate a contract for guest appearances we may see him on the show again.

Does Elliott Stabler love Olivia Benson on Law and Order SVU?

That situation has not happened in any episode. In several episodes they've played a 'couple' for the purposes of investigation. So far, they are coworkers that care a lot about each other but it has not turned into romance. If, perchance, a romance is written into an episode, you can be sure that they are getting desperate for ratings.

Will Elliot Stabler come back to the Special Victims Unit?

Answer Elliot and Olivia will never get together. Elliot is back home with a wife and family he loves. Elliot and Olivia will just remain friends and partners. Answer Not likely. In real life, millions and millions of men and women work closely together, even over long periods, and have no romantic notions about their coworkers. If a relationship was written into the script for Elliott and Olivia, their professional credibility would go down the drain. Too many grownups are regular viewers.
