ya, it's true love!!!!!!  being married to someone doesn't mean that you have to have sex..

Absolutely not...you can only be lusting for two people at the same time.  Love is a true devotion to one individual.  If you have to wonder if you are in love with two people then you don't love either.

Yeah, you can love someone and not get real love in return. That is not real love though. But  I think there is a soulmate for everyone and when you find that person you will find true love. Its easy into getting confused that you have felt love in the relationships you have been in, but that depends on how you define love. I think when you finally meet your soulmate, you will understand what true love means, because it will be deeper than anything you have felt before...

Yes, but the love is small and grows.  The feeling is usually infatuation.  Love is commitment and sacrifice.

Definitely not, we all have a first love, and more times than not this is not the person you end up with for the rest of your life.  Love like many other things in this world comes in many forms, from puppy love to the all time passionate love we see in romantic movies, but somewhere in between those two is real love.\n(Infatuation--Love--Obsession)

im not so sure its possible. i mean you could love certain qualities about that person but you dont really know them as a person. you havent ever spent time with them you havent had time to build a relationship. you might like to look at them and drool over them but i really dont think your in love with them.

I definitely think it's possible to have strong feelings for more than one person.  We're only human.  But I think when that happens we have to make a concious decision about who we want to be with, and then move on.  Like, weigh their good and bad qualities, and see how you really feel about them deep down inside.  When you've made your decision, after considering every single aspect of it, then move on.  Don't what if, don't wonder how it would have been.  You CAN develop feelings for more than one person, but I don't think it's fair to keep dwelling on that if you're with someone.  Attraction happens, lust happens, feelings happen, but that doesn't mean we have to act on it if we're in a solid relationship.  Good luck! :o)

Of course you can garner a strong attraction for a person.  Strong enough to where you believe its love.  Everyone falls in love differently.  I do believe it's possible to have a strong affection, attraction and desire for a person that you haven't met face-to-face.  Is it a strong love or true love - that's the better queestion.

I do not think that love comes from ability. If you are in love with someone, obviously you will not think that whether you are able to love her or not. So, I always think that I am able to love someone if that someone is my other part.

No. If you dont know them then you cant be in love with "them".

There is lust there, but zero love. You think in terms of emotions they are thinking in terms of satisfaction. You are Mr Right Now, not Mr Right.

You certainly can , I have anyway . Love is hard to explain and understand for that matter . Love can  make us do things that we never thought possible . I will tell you this much though if you do love two people you are in for a rough ride . Your best bet is to be honest as possible with both of them or you could lose them both .

well technically lust is a subset of Love after u remove sacrifice and caring from love. So i would say yes it is important to keep the wild side in the relation burning.

its a natural instinct to want to love/lust someone and since there are so many people that you have to use your hearts judgment ,and as you said, test the waters a bit seeking that one of your preference.

you can syill be in love with someone, but the physical urges may wane. its not just about sex. love is a deeper feeling, sex is a bonus

Not necessarily. Have you never heard of unrequited love? This is where you love someone with all your heart, and you worship the ground they walk on, but they can care less about you? This is one of the harsh realities of life.
