Ladies and Gents: Do you buy into the response or excuse that you can love many people the same way at the same time?

Love is a very strong word and has different connotations depending on the relationship itself. But seriously, when it's a monogamous relationship, handing someone the line that you can love many people at the same time and using it as a means to escape getting caught from cheating somehow does not work.

No. It's another excuse to cheat.

exactly and it's an insult to the person receiving the response as though the person was stupid!

What QofQ said. A cheater's way of eating more cake.

It's sickening

I believe in polyamory, and choose to live that lifestyle. A major difference is the honest communication. Hiding a lover isn't poly, it's cheating.
OWise1 · F
Exactly.
SW-User
No, but I believe you never love the same way with someone else. Each experience changes you and the way you love going forward. I don't buy into the loving two people at once in the same way. You may love one as a friend and the other as a lover but one is always more always

Nicely stated.

I think it is an excuse. Having multiple sex partners is usually because they are hiding a bigger emotional issue that is unresolved.

I think so too and some people literally fear finding out what true love is all about.

Interesting..
MrFoxx · 31-35, M
What I mean by multiple is different sex partners on a constant basis. They are searching for something that needs fixing inside. Men and women do this.

Of course it doesn't. Personally, I don't like cheaters one bit.

I know what you mean...it's like why can't people just be up front. If they are polyamorous, just say so...but don't use a weak excuse to justify wrongful behavior.
xRedx · M
Exactly. It's complete garbage. I'm very traditional. If I get married, which I do want to, it's strictly going to be monogamous.
BeautifulSurprise · 41-45, F
Hmm..that is something to think about.
[b]I[/b] can't do it; I can't speak for others' abilities, although someone who tells me he's capable of loving me and several others is free to go love the others and leave [b]me[/b] alone. I require a bit more of a commitment.
OWise1 · F
I am right with you there.....tells you there is not enough respect/feelings for whomever to justify a relationship with you.
