It's POSSIBLE, but you can't be IN LOVE with more than one person... that would be impossible.
No, ugh you see if your cheating on your significant other obviously you don't love them. The person your cheating WITH, your just using. If you really love either of them you'd be devoted & loyal, kinda a loose loose situation .
You can be in like with many people at once, but love is something else altogether. This one person I met said that once he told his girlfriend he loved her, was the day he would propose to her.
I'll make a bet with everyone who commented on this. They were all raised in a monogamy relationship. I were too, but I accept that some people can live in a polygamy relationship. Some are just more fit for it than others. Just because 98% of everyone was raised to believe that there only is the 'one and only' (who you will marry, get 3 kids with and then divorce when you realise that life isn't a dance on roses) doesn't mean that humans aren't fit to have more than one mate at a time.
No, if you knew what true love is then you would only be able to be with one person forever.
I think there are different levels of love.
You've got your love for Family.
You've got your love for Pets.
You've got your love for Religion. (If religious)
You've got your love for Close Friends.
You've got your love for Lovers.
You've got your love for the person you'd be willing to do ANYTHING for. If you ask me, there's only one person who'd truly have that love.
So in that aspect, you can love more than one person. But the more serious the love is, the fewer people can obtain it.
according to the theory of the ideal self there are three separate elements that go into any relationship (friendship, one night stand, mentor or parent, ect.) and they are lust, attraction and love. attraction stems from the "ideal self" aka the person you wanna be. most likely the person you wanna be has some of the same traits as who you are therefore when finding a compatible person the goal is to find someone close enough to your ideal self as you desire. you get along with friends because of attraction, you pick mentors because they have traits you want, ect. lust is simply physical attraction. when you have lust and attraction you have the ground work for a relationship in the bf/gf sense. love is a byproduct of attraction which is when you cannot or do not want to imagine your past or future without that person. therefore yes, you can love multiple people but if you chase multiple relationships (bf/gf type) your a dumb slut.
No you can never love more than one person. all the kids in high school saying i love you to each other make me sick. they have NO idea what real love is.
if you like more than 1 person as long as you're not married then it takes time to figure out who you like if you believe 1 of them is the ONE if you want
What do you mean by love? do you mean Love them like friends or family, or LOVE LOVE them?
If you truly love someone, then its only that person you can think of.
but you can love more than one cats or dogs at the same time.
Yes and you might not even realize that you are doing it because in your imagination you can have as many people as you want. But then you might realize that you have to choose. Weigh the pros and cons. Or leave both of them. Unless you could have someone do the same thing to you.
it can happen, and if you choose to do so, make sure everyones on the level. If everybody involved likes the idea, than good luck to you
Yes I found out that I could love more than one person at a time and they were in the best loving relationship of their lives...until they found out. If it were not for society looking down on people sharing one partner we all could have still been together till this day, loving each other and the lives we had.
its possible to love many people and you may think you love them equally but when it comes right down to it (like if someone seriously made you pick) you will find that you love one more (even if its just slightly) than the rest...for example I love my bf to death, I also love my friend (who is also a guy) to death, but if i was given the oportunity to pick one and stay with them I'd still pick my bf :) (but damn its soooo close)
I love my family even though Im not particulary a fan of their personality... I also love my boyfriend. So yea, I guess you can love more than one person?
That is such a hard question... i think you can lust for two people at te same time i mean when this comes to relationships but if you really love someone you're loyal and you don't want to love anyone else...
Damn, it took seventeen fucking comments for someone to get it right. Kudos to 58071. You can love a whole lot of people but you can be truly in love with only one. Anyone who says otherwise is either rationalizing selfishness or they're just downright ignorant.
Check out the show called "Sister Wives" on TLC he has four wives and he loves each and every one of them, It's sweet really ^_^
I couldn't do it though... I don't like to share my husband lol.
Yes, of course but you have to know what love is and is not. It is not sex. Love is love and sex is sex. If you could not love more than one person would you love your father or mother, your brother or your sister, your son or daughter. Or was the question really can you carry on more than one meaningless sexual relationship. Remember the quote "Love one another as I have loved you?"
Obviously, most of the people on this forum have a) never truly felt poly-amorous, and b) are too self-righteous and judgmental to give a straight opinion. It is possible, but I warn you, it's also painful and dangerous.
jus becoz you love one person doesn't mean you can't love anyone else. why should it be that way?
its totally normal..
but yes, it is very confusing trust me..
you will be fighting your own feelings all the time
I'm 12 I have a crush on a lot of ppl but there's one guy that I always come back too.
