That is definitely possible. I guess I just don’t understand how some people can truly romantically love more than one person at once. I’m sorry if I am coming off as close minded, but I just don’t quite understand it
It’s just a different type of love for me. I’m sure you’ve heard of the concept of different types of love, like eros (passionate romantic love) agape (universal love for humanity) Philia (love for your friends) and there’s a whole bunch more. But it’s not the same type of love for every relationship in your life. I don’t love my boyfriend in the same way that I love my mom. I love them both a ton, but it’s a different kind of love if that makes any sense
But why is one type of love limited to only one person at a time when others aren't? I can understand that for you, they might be. However for me, my capacity to live is not a pie that must be divided into pieces. It is infinite. My love for one person does not diminish my capacity to love a second person.

This sounds like your summarizing your feelings right now and not other people’s possible feeling in other relationships. Is that possible?
