Let me ask you this, out of curiosity. Given that you've fallen in love at least twice already, what would have happened if both women came into your life at the same time? I know it's hypothetical... but do you see the possibility that you'd fall for both (not exactly equally but to varying degrees?) Or you perceive falling in love as an absolute--an on-off kinda situation.
Yes ma'am. Thanks for helping me steer this thread away from danger
About parallel relationships: It's much trickier and all parties involved need to be ready for it. Small chance it will happen, but anyway, the possibility is there.
Plus (to use your analogy) you may normally like to read your books cover to cover, but for those two books that complement each other (say, the Bible and an exegesis ), you could read them in parallel?
You can finish reading a book in one sitting, without distractions. With relationships on the other hand, you continuously meet and interact with others, some of whom become your good friends.
Maybe I am wrong, but you need to try harder if you care to explain to me why you can't see romantically an amazing coworker, for example.
When I said about lying or being dead inside, I was talking about the possibility (or lack thereof) of developing feelings towards more than one person.
It seems most of us agree the possibility is there.
Now, can you see yourself in a situation where you would act upon those feelings, i.e. having parallel relationships?
What I was asking(and commenting upon) is whether you accept the possibility of developing romantic feelings for two men simultaneously. Acting upon those feelings is something else.
Let's not talk about affairs... too loaded a subject. Let's stay at the level of feelings. Do you think it's possible to have romantic feelings for two men at the same time?
If someone says they can only love one person at a time, I think they are either lying or have internalized the duty of being committed to such a degree that they are a little dead inside.
