Love

[Josy]

Do you believe in true love?

Do you think it's possible to be in love with more than one person at the same time?

What about love from habit do you think it's true that this happens in some cases?

[Northern Monkey]

Well i think love usually grows from habbit.What starts out as hormones raging then turns into a deeper affection from time spent with that person.I mean you might fancy the arse off someone but they turn out to be a right dickhead:laugh:
The love for your parents came from habbit as they looked after you from birth.
I think the only one exeption would be the love for your children since you have already established a deep bond with the other parent and your children are an extension of you and the person you have created that bond with.
Love is natures way of protecting the young.Not all animals stay with their young but the more advanced species do.

Love is a bit of a generic catch all term

you can love your children

love your parents

love a partner

love ice cream

love a team

love a view

The falling in love aspect is just our evolution through genes to ensure procreation

Yeah fair points.

The habit thing I was more meaning like if you fell in love with someone then after years you maybe dont love them as such anymore but continue to be with them and say you love them out of habit, and familiarity.

I've heard that happens.

Oh yeah but then there's a point where that ceases being love and becomes more of a safety net for fear of being alone or making a big change in your life and your kids lives.

Love is a weird thing. You can believe you're in love at the time but then looking back you don't understand it anymore and think you were just 'all about' that person. I kinda believe true 'love' never really goes away and it's always there to some extent even if you've moved on in life or are in a new relationship etc.

I do believe you can love two/more people at the same time. Maybe. I've been in the situation of liking two people almost equally at once. I know it's not the same as love, but it could develop into that imo.

[smudgie]

You can fancy more than one person at a time, be infatuated with more than one person at a time..hence playing the field.
True love is your one hearts desire, in my case anyway.
Not all parents love their children, same as not all kids love their parents, we don't live in. An ideal world.
Some people stay together out of habit, or perhaps because they still love the person they are with but on a different level, deep friendship and respect take over from the swinging from the chandeliers lusty love.
One hat doesn't fit all I suppose.

It's nothing more than a feeling, but it's a good feeling, the best... I believe that you know when you feel it, and if there's some uncertainty then it isn't true at all.

[y.winter]

I wish I knew. After many years it feels a bit hopeless at times.

[arista]

"Do you believe in true love?"

Yes Josy I do
sometimes Lust gets in the way

[arista]

[Do you think it's possible to be in love with more than one person at the same time?]

Of course, but Josy

Do you believe in true love?

What about love from habit do you think it's true that this happens in some cases?
Yes, I believe in true love.

I wouldn't be able to love more than one person, love is hard work.

I don't think you can love someone out of habit but yeah, people who don't love each other definitely stay together without really taking love into account if it's been a long time.

[Alf]

If you go looking for love, then can it be true love? or will you just accept and claim love with the first person who shows interest?

[jaxie]

I do believe in love. And I do think it's possible to love more than one person and that there are many different kinds of love, though I think most people are lucky to find one love so it's probably rare to find two. I don't think it's something you look for as much as much as something that happens and takes you by surprise. Mr Jaxie and I have been besotted with each other since we were 18. I got married at 19 and no, I wasn't pregnant, first kidlet came along about 5 years later and we became besotted all over again with this living expression of our love. We are still married. Being together is so easy, we just fit like a glove. Love does grow and it changes and it's still there now children are grown. I'm quite a cynic in many ways but the only way I can describe it is that we just clicked into place and neither of us have ever had any regrets. He's a good match for me, he's a great father and has a kind heart. He's also rather handsome! He also likes cats and the littlest one is inclined to sleep on his head, earning her the sometime nickname 'bedhat'. So there you are. I don't know if it works that way for others but that's how it worked for me.

And Merry Christmas, Josie and the rest of you!

You too have been blessed Jaxie, other than swapping cats for dogs we seem to have very similar soul mates.
