Is this possible? Some will say a quick NO, citing that u can only give ALL of yourself 2 only 1 person at a time. I c the validity in that. But, since LOVE is NOT born of logic, and instead, is run by EMOTIONS (which NEVER make LOGICAL sense), could it be that 1 COULD actually be "in love" with more than 1 person, simultaneously? What do u think?

I think the real question is can you be happy with just one person? Many people will answer that they have been in love with two people at the same time, however I think when it comes down to it one is really love while the other is merely the idea of love.

Interesting point. I'm still undecided about this topic. I think 1 CAN be happy with 1 person, and in most cases, that will be enough 2 fulfill them. Then again, some people are more free-spirited, and there-4, can BE happy with 1, yet still desire another, or OTHERS! I don't think it's "black & white". There's ALOT of "gray" area here. U've given me some "food 4 thought", though, which I greatly appreciate.

Yes but when a person desires to be with more than one person is it really love or are they just searching for something?

Definitely.. as you think of more than one person in your life then why cant you love two or more person whom you care about.

Well, u CAN care about more than 1 person, obviously! I'm just still wondering if u can truly be IN LOVE with more than 1, at the SAME TIME! I'm still OPEN 2 the possibility, though.

I think that people confuse the feeling of lust with love. I think that a person can be madly in lust with two or more people at the same time but I think you can only be in love with one person at a time. Who knows I may be wrong. I've never experienced being in love with more than one person at a time but I have liked more than one person at a time when I was single.

well i don't have time to see to other person that mean i am mad in one person and i don't even care for any other so i don't think if someone is madly love one can have much time for second one if he love first one truly

Good point. It DOES take ALOT of energy and TIME 2 deal with just 1 person, so I don't know about 2 either! I'm still pondering THIS 1!

i think i read somewhere that a person could have 5 people in the world that are completely perfect for them. if this were true, it would be hard to find more than just 1 since there are so many people in the world. i think its possible for someone to love more than 1 person but its better to stay faithful to your partner

Yeah, I think I've heard about the 5 people thing as well. I agree with u, in being faithful 2 your partner. Of course, if u are with the RIGHT partner 4 u, u probably won't have the desire 2 stray. But, if 1 still DOES, then, instead of cheating, maybe 1 needs 2 discuss this TRUTHFULLY with their partner, and if they BOTH agree, maybe they will become swingers, and if not, then they both have 2 make some hard decisions. But, I would prefer building something special with that 1 special person. It takes ALOT of energy just 2 devote 2 "1" person, so I can't imagine having enough 4 multiple partners! Thanks 4 your post!

I think it is possible for one to be "madly" in love with more than one person. For me to think in all of human beings in this world that I could be in love with only one would be ridiculous. Love is controlled by our emotions..and we all know our emotions are uncontrollable. We love who our hearts desire...that is something that gets taken over by a force we know nothing of.

Well said! I agree totally, that emotions ARE uncontrollable! Emotions DEFY logic, and there-4, there's no "reasonable" explanation, ultimately, 4 WHY we "fall" 4 a person. And since there's NO logic 2 it all, I believe it's VERY possible 2 "fall" 4 MORE than 1 person at a time! We can even desire someone who DOESN'T meet ANY, or very LITTLE, on our preference chart, which we ALL have! Nice answer! U get best response, definitely!
