So do you think that you only get one great love in your life or more? Do you think that you can love someone who doesnt love you? Do you think that you can love two different ppl at the same time?

Absolutely. I believe it's called polygamy? I am unsure, but I think that entails being with more than one person at the same time. Who am I to judge you? I prefer being with one person, at one time, for as long as we can possibly make it work. But that's just me.

And you can love someone who doesn't love you, but that's an unhealthy relationship.

I think that there are many kinds of love, and not all people are capable of all kinds.

I think there are some people who can love two or even more people at once.
I can, but I'm too jealous to maintain a happy poly relationship, and I'm OK with that. I don't need another lover to be happy. I'm fine with just someone who is so completely mine. :3

I also think that people are capable of having many great loves or just love in their life, but not all of these loves are happy or healthy. Like in the case where someone doesn't love the person back...it can still be a kind of love, but it's not a healthy or happy love.

I believe so. There are individuals who lose a spouse to death or to another person and they continue on with their life and find another person with whom they share the same feeling. And as Monstahh` said, there are different kinds of loves. So people will encounter some, all, or perhaps just one kind.

I know that you can love someone who doesn't feel the same towards you. I see it happen quite often and it's sad to see the suffering the lover endures. It's one of those situations where love tends to cause harm. :(

Since a person can love more than once, I believe it's also possible for those occurrences of love to take place at the same time.

Almost but not quite. What you are thinking of is polyamory. Polygamy means being married to more than one person at the same time.

I believe you can love two people at once, and even that it can be different for both of them. I think you can have more than one great love, but like Monstahh said the love may not be the same way you love the first one. And yes, I definitely believe you can love someone who doesn't reciprocate because I was loved by someone who I didn't love back. Great guy, I just didn't feel the same way he did.

I wasn't speaking of polygamy.. I was speaking of being with one person and only them and still loving another in the same you love the person you are with.. I dpnt think you can love someone who doesnt love you... you may think you do but whem you do find love you know you where wrong about loving someone who not in love with you.. I think ppl have love, but only one epic love... I believe and seen ppl stay with someone out of not knowing fear of being hurt and letting thier epic love pass them by.. I believe you should never settle for comfortable and forget about the epic love... if you not sure of what epic love is,its the kind of love that katie and hubbell, ilsa and rick, or eliizbeth and dracy had their stories

It really depends on the individual. Everyone is unique so your questions do not have any definite answer that can be proven.

But honey, it is SO easy to love someone who doesn't love you, TRUST me on that. There are hundreds of people caught worshiping some bitch or some creep out of love that isn't returned to them.

For me, I'm only 19 and I've had true love 3 times in my life.

My first was my 'puppy' love. The scrawny little geek in my grade 6 class named 'Jared' or 'Josh'... i can't really remember now. He was my first kiss, he left school grounds and got detention for doing so because he went across the street to ask an older lady if he could have some lilacs to give me on valentines day.
It didn't last, he moved away that summer and we both moved on.

My second was my Jr. High first official 'boyfriend', named Eric. In grade 8 we dated for a month, he took me to my first dance and out to my first movie. He had 4 older sisters and his mom, so he knew how to treat a girl with respect, which was SO nice compared to all the jerks in my class.
We 'broke up' because I wanted to go out with another boy, and he was interested in another girl.

My third was actually my 3rd or 4th actual boyfriend since Eric, his name was Mike. We were together for a year and a half, and I was honestly in love. he broke my heart and cheated on me with the girl I thought was my best friend. Hence how I know you can love someone who doesn't love you.

Right now I'm dating an older guy who is amazing, but I'm not in love yet I don't think, maybe I'll fall in love as I get to know him.

I definitely believe that you can have more than "great love" in your lifetime. I have experienced this. Those relationships did not work out, but I do not regret them. I made many wonderful memories with those people that I will always cherish. I learned many life lessons from them that will follow me throughout my life.

Yes, I think you can love someone who doesn't love you. Sometimes in such a situation I think you might be loving an idealized version of what a person is like, but not necessarily.

And yes, I also believe that you can love two different people at the same time. I just brought this point up in the polygamy thread, and it applies here too: you can love two or more of your own children at the same time, so why not two or more people you are involved with?
