Re: In Love with 2 People?
Liked the "Lust/Love" post above!


Yeah ... You can "LOVE" the sexual aspect of a relationship ...

THAT will Wane!

Go with the Loyal and Faithful One ...

They will be THERE ... When the Sexy One is looking for Someone Else!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 5943151



Okay, so what if he is saying he loves me (keeping in mind we were together 5 years, broken up for several months, we just going to start trying again and he met someone else almost 2 weeks ago), but he loves her too? He has told her how he still feels about me, but feels awful for hurting her and is says he is very sad to see her go and I've seen him, he is extremely sad. Says no matter which one he decides to be with, he will be hurt. I don't know if he is actually in love with me, or in love with her. He says he thinks he is in love with both of us. I also don't know if you can be in love with someone after a week long relationship.

Re: In Love with 2 People?
I've been in a relationship for 6 years and yet all this time also I've kept contact with an ex gf with whom we have this great friendship. This has caused me a lot of trouble with my gf cuz she thinks I am still in love with this other girl.

The thing is my gf is very simple and caring and also she is very affectionate. We joke around a lot and have great sex but we don't have a very intellectual relationship.

The other girl is very spiritual and smart and we connect to a deeper level, but on another level she's colder and we never were that close emotionally nor sexually. Still she writes to me and wants to see me, and I am just making excuses because i know my gf will find out and get pissed off. But I'd really love to just hang out with her for a week or something.

It's a weird scenario but just in case you find it of interest.

Re: In Love with 2 People?
I personally believe so.

what some consider love is simple infatuation wherein they become angered, lost, confused with the distancing of another.

Anyone that says this is impossible is stuck in this sort of infantile infatuation mode.

If it is not possible, how then can a parent love their children, and their spouse. In most peoples own words this the most basic example of love is lost.

Yeah. I can understand that. It makes sense to me. I wonder if we are supposed to settle for just some qualities that we like, or try to find someone will all of the qualities that we like? I don't know.

In my situation, we had a lot of issues. He is 8 years younger than me. I have 3 kids, he has 1. I've been raising his daughter just fine, but I've been a mom for awhile. He didn't do so well with mine. I've been with him since his daughter was 6 months though. We fought a lot. Since leaving, a lot of the issues have been resolved or we have found ways to deal with them. But now, meeting this new girl, there are things about her that aren't like me that I'm sure are refreshing for him. She is 8 years younger than him and not 8 years older. She has no kids, no responsibilities, no cares, just smokes weed and works at a convenience store so she is able to give him all the attention in the world.

In this instance, it sounds like you are in love with him, yet he/you gave up meaning some need was not being met.

Is that fixable? or do you end back as you begin again? If so its a wash, better keep looking.

It sounds more as if you might have some familiar love with this person and not a deeper soul connection that would bind you together when you use the word "try". In my opinion to try is to lie.

Love is not a battle, nor a game, it is or it isnt. My other pisses me off at times, yet even as she does her things, I can not look at her and think I could ever live without her. I dont pick some stupid thing found in time and use it to form a battle and begin to draw lines, it is her, I am I, sometimes the day just gets in the way.

Yes, I think we both forgot ourselves at times throughout the relationship. Between work, 4 kids, sports, all of that, we forgot to make any time for ourselves at all and got lost. We never stopped loving each other though. Even during the past 10 months when I haven't lived there, we still saw each other often and the love was always still there.

Say what I did wrong in the relationship you mean? I have no problem doing that. I expected a lot, more than he was capable of, being that he is much younger than me and was a new parent. I let everything else get in the way. I forgot how to have fun. I wasn't as understanding as I should have been. He cheated, more than once but only once physically. I stayed, but there was resentment. It caused arguments. After the last girl I found out about, I cheated too. I then left shortly after that. During the time we have been not living together, we spent some time completely broken up and would still see each other off and on. I thought for a long time that it was hopeless so I pushed him away. I didn't believe that things could be better and we could change. But in reality, we have both changed a great deal since I left. We never stopped loving each other and he has been trying his ass off since I left, up until a few weeks ago when he met this girl. I shouldn't have pushed when there was still love there.

 Quoting: IndigoSerenity76


Your friend needs to spend the necessary time to sort out that mess of emotions that he's dealing with. Until he takes the time to work through the emotions that he's battling with, he won't be able to make any sound, confident decisions about resolving these circumstances. You kind of hinted at it but could his fear of being hurt (again) make him subconsciously feel noncommital towards both parties?

It seemed kinda odd to me that you said he's only known the other woman for 2 weeks. Aside from the obvious butterflies that people can get when they first meet someone, two weeks doesn't sound like a suitable amount of time for two people to really know the extent of their feelings for one another under normal circumstances. Is he empathetic? Is that why he's so torn up about hurting her feelings? Does hurting her feelings make him identify with those feelings from his past and that's why he's so bent out of shape about this?

Maybe you could take a step back and grant him some space to sort his emotions out and clear his mind. It wouldn't hurt to tell him that's what you want him to do. You know that's what he has to do for this situation to proceed in a healthy direction for all parties. If he doesn't address the heart of the matter then the same emotional 'conflicts' will continue to resurface and manifest in different ways in the future.

Plus in light of recent discussions it sounds like you could benefit from devoting some more time focusing on YOU. That's why I hinted at riding 'solo' for a bit.
