What is the meaning of LOVE

Can you be in love with two people at the same time? I always wondered if you could actually be in love with two different people at the same time. Lust does not count as love, and you can't use loving someone and being in love with someone to answer this question. Is it truly a love Triangle? I don't really think it is possible to be in love with more than one person at a time. It's unfair to the people involved. You can't fully give your love to one or the other so how can someone make that statement. Have you ever thought you were in love with two different people?

I, myself have wondered that very thought. Can you be in love with 2 people at the same time? I could always imagine what it would be like to love 1 person fully, with all my heart, but when it came down to even thinking about the possibility of having that same feeling for 2 people, it was completely overwhelming. Part of me doesn't think that you can be in love with 2 people at the same time, at least not completely. At most, I believe you can be in love with 1 person much more than you love the other. The way I define love, is a deep genuine feeling of care for someone, so much that you could almost give up everything (possibly even your life) for this person. I think that for those who say they are in love with 2 people, can't make up their mind about who they care more about. They probably care deeply for both, but they can't be in love completely with either one.

According to me, one cannot have same feelings for 2 persons in one's entire life.. So how can one love 2 people at the same time..Their always exists some difference between the feelings which we cannot judge but if we concentrate and try to find it out,then one can see the difference between the feelings which was thought to be same in both the cases but after analyzing it will result in some differences.

At the same time like two people are pieces of hard things have been banned for at least morally, it is essential to the stability of a love relationship.

I think you can be in love with two people. It is unfair but I think it can happen. You can love one more than the other and so choosing is hard or you can love them for different reasons. Maybe it's the difference between loving someone and being in love that makes the distinction. I once thought I was in love with two people at once but later I realised I never really loved either of them, I was just confused by all the drama and emotions involved. But someone out there must be in love with two people!

the meaning of LOVE can be easily recognized by its elaboration of full form i.e. L - loss O - of V - valuable E - energy that all.

You are correct regarding from not loving two persons at the same time. It's really difficult to love them both. You can't say that you love them both. It's obviously shows that you are just fooling not only yourself but the other one. And it is not love you have if you are letting them both feel your love. It's just all selfishness!

Will this be possible? being in love to two individuals? I have a friend who are on this situation right now. She is married. Her husband works out of the country to be able to sustain the financial needs of the family (they have two kids). This friend is also having an affair with her boss. When I confronted her, she told me that she loves both men. She also requested me to keep it a secret and not to tell her husband. Her husband was also a dear friend of mine. We are friends for almost 10 years. I pity her for being in that situation and the question still lingers in my mind - Is it possible to be in love to two individuals?

im sure many may get confused about feelings towards two different people, but to love someone full hearted is impossible to give to two. if split between two its not full hearted and therefor not real love. but it can feel just as good and bad if you feel torn between two. i thinnk love means many things but in the case of a mate, its the choice to love only them for the rest of your life. choosing to work twards each other, not away. pretty much choosing to have their best intrests in mind be fore your own, and of course having them do the same for you, then you will see true love. absolute selfless ness.

There are so many meanings of love. Each of us has own personal meaning of love. To me, Love is just give and take, patient, no jealous and its maintained by both parties. I don't really think that a person were in love with more than two different people. It's sellfish not love...

Once I fell in love with more than three person but none of them be my real lover. I guess maybe I just have some crush and that not count as love. I am also in love with some superstars and willing to marry them if I could. This is not lust, it is pure. However, on the other hand I don't think living in glamorous style is my choice of lifestyle. Therefore in my opinion, love Triangle do exist. However, which one do you prefer? What is the best choice for you?

I can't. Love is selfish. Loyalty is a necessary part of love. If you share your love with more than one person, it is not love any more. You have already betrayed the ones you used to give all your heart to. At that time, love doesn't exist between you two.
