anymore (or any more) means no longer. for example: “I don’t smoke anymore.”
”- Do you smoke?”
”- No, not anymore!”
does that help?

here are some examples :

I no longer love you.

I do not love you anymore.

Quite the same for their meaning.

Meaning—I used to love you. or I loved you.

But, now—I  do not love you like I once did.
