Do you think it is possible for a man or a woman to love two persons at the same time? Well for me I don't think a man or a woman can love two persons at the same time. There could only be one person who could occupy someone's heart. The other person can be considered as somebody whom he or she admires strongly.

I guess in theory, this is possible. There is a possibility that you may love two persons. As such lovers have to choose in a love triangle. If they do not make a choice, the affair will continue. Some will gain;others will lose. That is the way of the world! So you have not be caught in such a situation. Lucky you!

I think the same way as you. You could only love one person and can get attracted with another. But that's all there is to it attraction. The relationship between two partners is very important. That's why the man/woman, has to be very sure when entering a serious commitment. You cannot play with someone's heart.

Yes unfortunately many people do play with someone's heart, due to selfishness. Sad to say even those who have experienced genuine love, can be insensitive,careless and disloyal.

There cannot be such instances in the case of true love. If such a situation arises , then there are probably two reasons behind it : 1. The man/woman is not in love with either of the two in true sense and probably just want to spend time without commitment. Be wary of such. 2. The man/woman may have been friendly with one and loves another, which the former mistook for love . This case arises when the said person has not proposed , but the former may be thinking he/she is in love with her/him , just by taking the affectionate relationship that the person has with him/her. Definitely True love fills your heart entirely of the person you are in love with .

I like your keen understanding towards my discussion. I opened this subject matter, because, a good friend of mine said it is possible for a woman/man to be in love with two persons at the same time. Which I totally disagree.

i dont understand this question! do you not love your parents or siblings or children? or do you only love one of them out of all of them?! i guess the real definition is....what do you mean by "love" you cant mean love itself because love is to be shared with all, even enemies. you must mean something dealing with lust or ego tripping! when it comes to a relationship, the union between a male and female (i see no reality in homosexual unions since everything in the universe comes in opposite pairs) is sacred, and indeed beautiful. to love someone on a level beyond general love..to the level of husband and wife can only truly be shared between that husband and wife. it only takes one male and one female to have a child...so anyone else involved in such a relationship between husband and wife...is adulterous. if a person has marital love for someone, they will never cheat on them, not even in their thoughts! if a person cheats or considers someone else...it is not love at all..but at most an ego trip=a person who is pleased by another who suits their ego..or it is just lust plain and simple.

The context of the relationship here is , between a man and a woman. Two people who are in love.This is not in context with parental and brotherly love. I could tell you have a very strong conviction when it comes to marital relationship. That is very good. Because now a days, it seems like commitment is not taken seriously anymore. It makes me sad.

for you to say that shows your view of love is not correct. love must be shared with all creatures. even as in school, we start off in elementary levels and work our way up to intermediate levels....so it is..love starts between child and parent....that is the beginning of love. a person should progress in love from their birth..not remain stagnant. love is pure and clean..it is not lust, nor does it have foul thoughts. love can easily be shared with all family members and all creatures. take away such adjectives like "brotherly love" and "parental love". those are decoys which only degrade the true beauty that love is. what you must be speaking about is romance...but romance is doomed to fail. are you not aware that the term romance started in rome? where hundreds of years ago..although people must have cheated in secret, yet, all the nations shunned open affection towards the wife of another. but in rome things happened which the rest of the world frowned on. when men went to war, their wives were left at home. the men of rome who did not go to war felt to monopolize on other men's wives. so they would do things to woo the married females, since the females would not directly take the advance of another. so the men would sing songs, and play on lute and lyre outside their window or wherever they chose....singing sweet songs of tenderness to the females in poetry. and in this way, the lonely female's whose men were at war, would adulterate on their husbands...that is the birth of romance! in other nations, especially the east, they would say to someone who tried to do the same thing...."get that romantic perversion away from here" because they associated those practice with the outright adulterous romans. truth is, the root of romance is in adultery..and those who look for "romantic love"....which is not love at all, only some twisted imitation...are bound to fall into the traps that romance brings.......heartbreak
