Apologies 
Left my account on and one of my TROUBLESOME housemates thought it would be hilarious to leave a message under my name. I've changed the message anyway cos the last one was horrible!! sorry everybody. There will be severe punishments for him later!

My friend thinks you can, but I don't think so.
I have loved the ladies on mutliple occasions, and in many different ways. So yes, I do think that you can love to people at once - I have done so in the back of a cab! But having said that, you do need good elasticity.

lol, ok then. well to answer the question, no, i don't think you can. but then again i'm not really into polygamy. i would question whether both instances are really 'love'.

I think some people can and some people cannot, It really depends on your psychological makeup.

I don't think you can. You are just being indecisive.
Reply 7
I don't think you can either. You probably don't truly love either.

Why
You probably don't truly love either.
I must disagree with that. But that's not the point of this thread.

Too much love will kill you, every time.

The notion of 'loving' two people simultaneously admits concession to a lesser form of 'love' which is non-exclusive, and whose value will be mitigated as a consequence.

The notion of 'loving' two people simultaneously admits concession to a lesser form of 'love' which is non-exclusive, and whose value will be mitigated as a consequence.
Is there anything conclusive to suggest that exclusivity lends greater value to a relationship? I suppose choosing one person over all others might make them feel more loved, but whether it necessarily signifies anything about the strength of one's own feelings is debatable. It all hinges on whether you believe the capacity one person has for emotion has a constant limit, in which case spreading love between two or more people would diminish it.
I think we can legitimately claim that we as individuals may not be able to love two people at once, but to make a judgement about everyone on such a subjective issue isn't feasible. It's entirely possible that, while some may be only able to truly love one person at any one time, others may have the ability to have loving relationships with multiple partners at once. Certainly polyamorists claim to do so, and engaging in multiple loving relationships simultaneously has been shown to work, given the right people.

Of course it's possible to love more than one person.

what if you LIKE two people and they like you back, what would you do? to make it worse, they are BROTHERS. . .

Chose a random 3rd party to give you a break from both people interested. Then get over them and come back to see if there is one you still like.
But yeah, I think some people are perfectly able to love 2 people, unfortunatley trying to give advice about what to do is impossible. If anyone knows how to advise someone who is in love with 2 people (and I mean, really feels for both of them) please help me help them! I had a lass in tears on my shoulder yesterday wondering what to do with a pair of guys.. not great.

This is also my opinion. In my experience, the kind of love I have for my partner is not a feeling I could at the same time have for anyone else; it is by its nature exclusive. I can conceive that a lesser form of love might apply in which case someone might 'love' two people at once, but as Profesh says, this is a lesser form of 'love'.
Therefore, I agree with whoever said that if you think you love two people you probably don't really love either.
