Who do you love?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I was having dinner with some friends recently. There were men and women there, ranging from age 24 to 38, mostly single people. Someone brought up the subject of romance (not me!) and the question was poised: Can a man love two women at the same time?
Of course, there were varying responses, and many thought we should define “love” first. That sparked another debate about being in love and falling in love. Then, my friend Richard said, “Men don’t fall in love. That concept is something chicks get from the movies and magazines.” He thinks that women fall in love, but men succumb to it. So, his answer was, no a man can’t love two women at the same time. Mainly because men can only truly “succumb” to one woman.
Most of us agreed that to supposedly be in love with two women at the same time, someone would probably be lied to and that is not the kind of love that is real. What do you think?
Considering how men view/perceive love, is it possible for a man to love two women?
Are women more inclined to think that we could “fall in love” with two men because we view and perceive love differently?
Have you ever felt torn between two people? Did you have strong feelings for both of them? How did you decide which one was better for you?
