I say no and one reason is if you are loving more than one, they are both being short changed. So that's not right. It's all to one or nothing I say.professor doh

Too many people forget that being in love has more to do with giving than it does getting in return...I think it's possible to love different things about different people...but it's not possible to be in love with more than one person...being in love means giving all of you and being fully committed...which you can't do with more than one..and if you don't want or can't do that with either or any of them...than perhaps that means you aren't in love with any of them....hug kiss hug heart beating wink

I agree, however as It was said to me, can a mother love both her children? and if so do they go without love?

Im a solo man myself, but it seems some people believe they can.Many cultures have practiced having multiple wives, and in some african cultures the wife is able to have multiple husbands.

Is this natures way of ensuring survival of the species? loldunno

Loving children...friends and family is a different kind of love than being in love with someone...and yes many cultures practice having different wives...but I'll bet it has nothing to do with being in love....not in the true sense of the word anyway....thumbs up

Said better than myself, but there you go, it just shows that many have no idea that love is a totally giving thing, sad isn't it .

Yes I gave for years during my marriage and received nothing in return. I have learn't from my errors and now know this.... Life is a 2 way street, if we are not getting something out of what we put into (relationship) then we are headed for a bottomless pit! Needless to say stupid and will have the same problems throughout life.

Totally giving - NO, giving and receiving - YES.

Thanks for your comment :)

In some cases, a man may discover that he is in love with two woman at the same time. Maybe he does not love them in the same proportion. Most likely, he may love one of them more than the other. Yet, he still has feelings for the other woman. Except for those who want to deceive themselves, this situation is common to many men.

Somehow, even after marriage, men still nurse feelings for some other woman outside. The feelings might not be as deep as it once was, but it's still there. And to make matters worse, it shows up every now and then.

For instance, you could find yourself thinking about the other woman often, wishing you were in her company rather than the person you are with. You could be moved to want to call her even with the other lady present. And when it appears that there is a pattern of boredom or rut in your present relationship, your mind immediately goes to the other lady. You feel that you would be able to freshen up your life with her company.

Will this work?

Does it pay to have two women in your life at once?The answer is NO. No one is cut out to have more than a relationship at once.Attempting otherwise has led to the emotional devastation of many a man.The best way to handle the situation is to deal with it decisively once and for all. If you don't, you are playing with a potentially explosive situation in which you might end up losing both ways.You need to really consider the facts and weigh the consequences of your actions, and see where it will affect you negatively.

Yes. I have been in love with two people at the same time.

I don´t expect most people to understand this, but it is possible.

It´s not a good situation to be in though.

Dude I am leaving this country to the exes I will leave behind. I do not even want to reside in a country that allows them to exist here. There is no way they could ever be on mind as more than a worry for our children. If my mind started working like this I would quickly go buy a dozen feet of good strong rope and find a real nice tall tree.

I think it is possible for some people. This has never happened to me so I don't think I could really and truly love 2 people at the same time. But I have known women who claim to be in love with 2 different men at the same time. Some of it could have been infatuation. I'm not sure... dunno

I totally agree.

And since infactuation can seem like love and can hurt like love. Most likely that is all they had,thinking they loved more than one.
I know I couldn't be Inlove with more than one man at a time. thumbs up thumbs up Because my heart would be totally committed to just one.
