Yes you can be in love more then once.I have only been in love twice in my life so far.My first love was my first husband i met him when i was 19 and he was 18 it was like love at first site.We married on August 3,1987 and had 4 daughters durring our marriage,I was so in love with him but our marriage ended in February 1992 when i found out he had been molesting our 4 daughters our youngest was only 4 months at the time i found out the other 3 girls were 4,3 and 1 yrs old.I was so distraught over what he had done i threw him out of the home and contacted the police and turned him in myself.Our divorce became final in September of 1995 i was a single mom after that for 12 years raising my girls by myself i was afraid to let myself love another guy or to let any other men near my girls or me.I met my second husband in 2002 when a friend of mine brought him by my home and introduced us.I again fell in love at first site but for over a year was afraid to let him know how i felt.In August of 2003 i finally got up the guts to let him know and found out he felt the same way.We were married on October 3,2003 we have been married for 3 years now and are doing great.He is my soul mate and i love him with all my heart and soul.Here is a poem i wrote and dedicated to my husband.
The Love Of My Life
I was alone for so long just me and my girls
being a single mom was such a hard life.But
I did it one day at a time.My heart had been
broken so many times was afraid to let love
back inside. I had built a wall up around my
heart so thick that no one could get in.
12 long lonely years i spent with just me
and my girls. Doing my best to raise them
right.I hoped and prayed for so long,that
God would send someone special to love me.
Long lonely nights of crying and hurting,
being so scared to let anyone inside my
heart again.
Then the day came when you walked through
my front door.My heart started to flutter
and i had butterflies in my stomach.I was
to scared to let on how i felt.It was love
at first site.We became friends and for a year
thats all we were.Then the day came when i could
not let my self be scared any longer.The fear of
losing you was far to painfull.
Out on my parents front porch we sat for hours
on that old car seat from there van.Your arms around
me felt so wonderfull.My heart was bubbling over
with the love i felt for you.I knew from that moment
on my world was complete,it was no longer just me
and my girls.God had brought me my Soul Mate

Thats was a very nice response and a very nice poem. I too have been in love twice in my lifetime. The first man I met in 1996 when I was only 16. We had a son together and he put me through hell for 4yrs. He was never much of a father to my son and always cheated on me. In 2000 I finally got up the nerve to leave him. Then I met the man I am with now the same yr. We met through a online personal and have been together for 6yrs. We have a 3yr old son together and my son who is now 9 calls him daddy. I could not ask for a better man. And I love him more than I ever thought I could love a man. Even though I loved the other man, the man I am with now is my soul mate.

I believe you can have more then one soul mate. Sometimes the soul knows the other person from a past life that is why some people think that they have always known that person and sometimes the soul is drawn to another soul like a magnet, a force of sorts that compels the two souls to each other. Sometimes this force is strong enough to pull two people together as in soul mates. So I believe it is possible to have more then one soul mate.

I agree some people think there is only one person meant for them. But I believe there can be more than one. But I guess also being in love with someone and that someone being your soul mate can be two different things. Thats why just b/c you love some one doesn't mean its always going to work out.

Yes I also believe that you can be in love more than once. And people change or just can't get along so they part ways and fall in love with someone else. Thanks for the response.

WHAT I FEEL IS THAT LOVE TRUELY HAPPENS ONLY ONCE IN A LIFE..EITHER EARLY IN YOUR LIFE OR SOMETIME LATER ..BUT SURELY HAPPENS ONCE..IF IT HAPPENS IN EARLY STAGE YOU ALWAYS REPENT FOR LOSING IT THOUGH YOU ARE HAPPY WITH PRESENT LIFE....IF IT HAPPENS LATER YOU LAUGH AT THE FEELING YOU WERE IN WHICH YOU THOUGHT WAS A LOVE...
