I love you ... and you
A few day back, a blogger made a comment wondering if it was possible to be in love with two people at once, like men and women on popular television shows like The Bachelor and The Bachelorette often claim to be. One night the bachelor can be seen sharing kisses with one woman, telling her that she's awesome and he has a connection with her. The next night, he's doing the same with another woman.
I always found this baffling. You cannot have multiple "one and onlys." You can only have one. You either love a person, or you don't, and if you love one person romantically, you're not loving someone else romantically, too. I think the people on those shows are deluded and overcome with lust, which is really exciting and can cause people to say things they don't really mean.
Plus, the chances that your soul mate is someone gorgeous and randomly selected by television producers is pretty far out there.
Do you think it's possible to love more than one person at once? Have you ever been in love with two (or more) people at the same time?

I definitely think its possible, but I also agree that it's more lust than love. For example, why do people cheat? Beacause they lust after someone else. Sometime's I guess that lust turns into love...think of people who leave their spouses of 15 years to marry someone else. They apparently were in love with two people.
Or maybe they never really loved their spouse. Or they fell out of love with them. Just a thought.
