Poll question: Can you be in love with more than one?
I know I've broached this subject before in here in one form of another, but I'd like to know if you personally think you can be in love with more than one person at once?

2. Of course. Humans are polyamorous
We are only made monogamous by culture, out of necessity. Take away our "need" and we go poly.

5. "love" = "in love" ?
perhaps, probably, possibly, perchance.

10. If you're bi, it's fucking complicated.
Poly can be a mess. Ignoring things don't work. Other options involve other bullshit factors you don't necessarily want to deal with. Sigh...

Sometimes, it's a wonderful thing. Other times, meh. :(

14. Bi can be quite complicated. Never mind the accusations*...
Edited on Sun Nov-04-07 02:49 PM by HypnoToad
Or what people say when you opt to do what they claim you can't do (make a decision and bloody well stick with it; there is never a reason to stray nor cheat)...


* Such as "Bi men are just gay and faking it, get over it", "confused", "should decide to be with one gender and not bother with the other", "greedy", "swinging", "insecure", "self-denying", "freely transmitting diseases", and so on... been there, done that, rubbish.

9. Don't I know it.
Sometimes, like a sinkhole in the freeway, you fall into it anyway. x(

I believe this. It's one of the only things I am certain of, in life, sometimes.

18. Yes...much to my dismay.
'Cause inevitably, the other people never understood why this was not a problem.
Damn damn damn.
