can you love two people at the same time?

if i am not appointed queen of the land of confusion, i should be nominated for mayor.

one reason being :
the guy on the train, his questions, and comments about my preferences.
-causing me to think about everything regarding the subject.

another reason being :
my persistent feelings for a particular person.
my love for them, my thoughts about them, and my inability to completely move on.
this person told me today that they still loved me, & that just because we aren't together, doesn't mean that i have to force myself to get over them & to stop loving them.
it made me upset to realize that a few pictures could move me to tears, causing me to miss *that person* more than I did before.

ANOTHER reason being:
my recently discovered feelings for another person.
a person with feelings similar to mine,
a person that's currently in a 4 month relationship. :/
we discussed love yesterday,
& came to the conclusion that
both of us are afraid to love again, afraid to use the word love, and also afraid to be loved.
this question came up towards the end of the conversation :
can you love two people at the same time?
-it seems as if both of us do.

i think it becomes more complex and complicated when you're *in love*
with more than one person at the same time.

as much as i spend time thinking , i think that, i NEED to think some more about all of this.
