The situation is like this: You're currently involved with someone for several years now. You love each other and you care for each other. What's more, you believe deep in your heart that he/she won't leave you for someone else, as for you, you also believe that you won't find anyone else better for you than him/her. You know that you're both good together. Then suddenly, you meet someone and this someone suddenly makes you feel different. You then start feeling good around him/her, making you care more and more. The sad thing is that, you suddenly feel like you love both of them. Seeing things that you love about them both, you can't even start to weigh who you love more. Even if you know that it's not right, you start to question yourself, "Would I risk losing my present loved one for this new-found love?"
If the same thing happens to you, what would you do? =)

when love came to you and knocked your heart, you will start thinking what is the best thing to do. i've been in that situation. it was really hard to choose. what i did was i chose to stick to my present, enjoyed the time being together. i thought i would be able to forget my feelings about the new one by simply being with my present but i was wrong because the more i do what i thought was right, the more i felt like missing the new one. i started to think what should be done. i talked to my bf about it. i asked him to give me time to think and he did give me. then i finally came to realize that i really love the new one and im ready to risk all just to be with him.
im not saying that in all cases you must choose the new one. important thing is that you should choose the person whom you really love. dont choose the person just because you think he's the right one but ask yourself who will complete you and whom youre willing to give all just to be with him.
i did what i thought was right, but in true love no matter how tried to avoid it or resist to it, it will still put mark on your heart. and that mark will lead you to love more than you love yourself..

hmmm you cant love two women/man at the same time at the same place. its true to say you love them both but you cant love them equally. the one will always have the edge over the other. your looking into something thats so serious, ive been in the situation like that, i chose the new-found love but in the end, i regret why i did so. my old one is a good one, a very good one, more than you can ever ask for. but as what they say, there's always a situation where in your love for her/him will be challenged/tested. and it could be the trunig pint og your life...
its hard to weigh love, and there's no known way to weigh love. just think over it..
now im in a new relationship, altough its not as good as what is expect it to be, im hanging on to it(read my discussion entitled: DENIED AND TAKEN FORGRANTED
