BEING IN LOVE WITH TWO PEOPLE


The big, bold headline must have been talked about a thousand times or more, I wonder is it humanly possible to be in love with two people at the same time? Here's another thing to ponder on, why is this a bloody issue? people all crave to love, be in love and to be loved so what's with the "Oliver twist" movement? As usual i did a bit of digging and you'll be amazed with my findings:

You might think there's no research to answer your question and you'd be right. How can you know if you're in love with him? An online survey of more than 1,100 readers found two-thirds thought you could be in love with more than one person. Evidence clearly suggests that humans are capable of loving and having sex with more than one person at the same time. Indeed, most people say that they can romantically love, and actually have loved, a few people at the same time. What psychologists do say is that you're unlikely to be in love with two people who are similar at the same time. Some also say that healthy people are satisfied in a relationship with one person, and only narcissists-proud,vain people- and people with dysfunctional emotional lives think they can be in love with two people at the same time. Based on expert opinion if you are in a relationship, your existing relationship is likely to win out because there's more invested in it. Stop seeing this new man/girl and improve the relationship with your old one.

For the record I'm sure people have come across the johnny Depp quote about following the other because if you truly loved the first you wouldn't have fallen for the other. I stand to differ being that the other would be a temporal satisfaction but the first would be the better option, in all, everyone believes that you can't have them both, the choice will be yours, just choose wisely :)  Hey you can always drop your thoughts on if you agree or disagree with this post, or better still holler at me @keeksokafor...
