in love with two people..
just got finished flatironing my hair and was about to give myself a heatstroke in the process..but now i'm cooling off and ready to blog...after listening to jamie cullum's version of "only have eyes for you..and watching a video on youtube covering the topic of the possibility of being in love with two people at the same time..
i felt compelled to put in my two cents... let's see what i come up with...
first of all what does being "in love" with some really mean... like when people say that old tired line of: "i love you but i'm not IN love with you..." i mean what the____ does that really mean...really... i personally don't know..
a response to the vloggers video stated that its totally possible to be "in love" with more than one person because you can be "in love" with your husband, children, parents, siblings,etc..
don't know if i really buy that...sure you can love your parents, children, siblings...but don't know if i would say i'm "in love" with them...its a different type of love all together..
i agree with the vlogger (who made the video addressing the topic) that to be "in love" with someone means to basically to breathe them, eat them, think them, crave them (you get my point, HINT: i only have eyes for you) ALL THE TIME... basically you can't get enough of the person on a more intimate level... and this being "in love" makes more sense in the context of a person you're in a PHYSICAL intimate relationship with...be it a partner, boyfriend, husband, whatever you want to call them...
so having then defined what being "in love' with some means to me...i think that for ME (key word) it would be really really hard to be in love with two people at the same time..i mean that would just be physically EXHAUSTING!!!...to put that much energy into one person i can imagine is hard enough..worthwhile, but not easy..and to give it to two..don't know if it would work for me..really why say you're really "in love " with someone when you're feel the same way about someone else.. that seems selfish to me..
sidenote: like the truelife: i'm a bisexual episode i watched this passed weekend on MTV..bisexual individuals thinking it was cool and fair to have a man and woman in their lives at the same time..chick was even "married" to a man but felt she had every right to have a girlfriend on the side.. just SELFISH!
maybe you think you can be in love with two people but maybe you're actually in love with one but feel a different kind of love toward the other...does that make sense..probably not but i get it..
guess what i'm trying to get at is there's a difference between dating two people versus saying you're "in love" with two people...now keep in mind i'm puting this in the context of simultaneous relationships..i can fully understand being in love with a person AT THE TIME then growing and going your separate ways only to find yourself in love with someone else at another time in your life... that's life!..people grow..get older..learn more about themselves..change their expectations..which leads to falling out of love with someone and finding new love with someone else...but does that mean you really stop loving that other person just because you fell out of love with them...absolutely not..
so i guess i answered my question...but i really can't answer until i live it...who knows..maybe i'll be that chick in a few years blogging (if that's even still relevant) about how i'm 'in love" with two people and how could this be ;)....
