Imagine a scenario where you are having an amazing life with everything falling in place, your love life is better than ever, and you adore every bit of it. You are practical in love and while making decisions about your future, the prospect of being with that special person seems perfect.

Now, let me take you to a different zone.
Imagine another scenario where you are having an amazing single life and you love every bit of it. You don’t believe in true love and while making decisions, you only think about yourself or people closer to you. You are of the view that love is over-rated and a person falling out of love is nothing but heart breaking.

In both the scenarios, do you think people can feel for two persons at the same time or fall in love at all? What I am asking here is can one fall for someone when she/he is already in love or how hard is it to make one believe that true love exists somewhere. The answer, I believe, is a big no in both the scenarios.

One may get attracted to the qualities of a stranger whom they have just met. But one can never fall in love with two people at the same time. It is truly said that if one loves two people at the same time, they should choose the second one to be with because the dilemma is the result of not being truly in love with the first partner. I believe that our heart should be content with whatever we have and accept the perfection in all imperfections.
Now if we are talking about convincing a broken heart, it is yet another tough task. Past wounds can be healed, but the impact is unforgettable. While approaching heart-broken people, you need to understand that they have lost faith in love and extra effort is needed to convince them that they can be loved again.

The feeling of first love is extraordinary and irreplaceable. You may not be able to recreate similar emotions when you start seeing other people, and that’s all but natural. So, it doesn’t matter if you are in love with two people at the same time or are heart-broken. Because at the end, love is love and it will work its magic.
