Laura1318 agony auntYou can be in love with many but there is only one whom you will love with all your heart.

You can love them as a friend or as a relative and nothing more.

If you constantly think of him and cannot get him out of your mind, that is an obsession. This is not real love. Know your boundaries and limits.

Hi Hunny,

He is a good person who has come into your lives and has made an impression on you as he has a kind heart love, You can love someone and still be married and inlove, Maybe you are just thinking like this as he is the first man apart from your husband who is thoughtfull and caring, I have a friend who I love to bits he is around all the time and if we are out you would sometimes think he is my fella but no he is my best mate and I really love him, Not in the way Im inlove with my b/f though, I hope this helps hunny TAKE CARE OF YOU LOTS OF LOVE MANDY XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A male reader, kenny United Kingdom + , writes (13 February 2008):

kenny agony auntI guess it is possible to be in love with two people at the same time, but be careful that you are not mistaking this feeling as love when in actual fact it is lust. Love tends to be more longer term, and lust is more short lived and fades away over time. I would be inclined to put it down to lust and let these feelings die out over the natural course of time. Don't act on these feelings you are having, if you do it could lead to alot of unessessary heartache further down the line. Try to put these feelings out of your mind and focus your attention on your husband and your children. Just tell yourself that these are stupid thoughts you are having about your friend, and that nothing could ever happen.

Good luck x
