Is it possible to truly love only one person forever?

Possible for my mother. After my dad passed she never remarried because she loved him and only him.

Humans are classified as "serial monogamists." This is a joke, to me, because "serial monogamy" is a lot closer to polyamory than it is true monogamy.

Humans aren't monogamous. If they were, the divorce rate wouldn't be 60%. And "cheating" would't be so prevelant.

Monogamy is uust socially enforced. It tries to cover up nature--reject human nature and try to hide it under a rug, while saying, "Oh, *I'm* different," or, "*S/he's* different.*

Understanding this, there's no reason to stay with one person. Humans are most fulfilled and healthy when they bounce from one partner to the next, rarely staying with one partner for more than 6 months to 2 years. Or have multiple partners at the same time. People would be a lot healthier if they did it that way, instead of trying to delude themselves and try to cover up their instincts. That's how they sneak up on you. You can try to deny that the sun will go down. But, all it will do is surprise and disillusion you when it inevitably does.

Yes, people just lack dedication and they're told that's okay by other less dedicated people. Love is not some magical thing, we have full control over it.

Yes it is. I love my wife of 18 years and only her :)

Monogamy and loyalty are two separate things. I'll take loyalty over monogamy any day. Infact I prefer to be in a more open relationship.

I do believe some people can be and are monogamous though.

No not for me at least. My one and only marriage lasted about as long as it takes to make toast. Never again! I've chosen to enjoy the rest of my life.

No impossible human beings live less than 24000 days so there's no way you could ever love anything forever.

The answer to that is only known to those who don't need to ask it. Or bother answering it for those they can't speak for.

Well yeah even though love is a weird concept invented by our minds to keep our species going

I think it's possible for some people, but not nearly as many as we're lead to believe.

I think it works for the few that find the right partner.

YES, as is proven over and over and over again if you truly look around.

Possible & Rare

for me yes.. im strictly monogamous

Of course it's possible. Whether or not it's likely---the divorce rate might indicate otherwise. Doesn't mean it's not a worthy goal. 🙂
