the problem is that people assume being "in love" with someone means depending on ONLY that person to fullfill ALL your needs...when we original "fall" we are intrigued with a certain aspect of a personality...we romanitcize it...convince ourselves that the person behind it must be completely original and unique in order to have this one characteristic....and then we discover that they are human...and not only human..but have faults...and some of the faults begin to look VERY similiar...so then we start projecting ourselves onto that person...and if we have come to hate ourselves then we learn to hate that person.....and when we no longer know who to blame for this...we just shrug our shoulders and assume that it is all the other person's fault for not having been the superhero we envisioned...
i dont believe you can only be in love with one person your whole life because of all this..i believe you can be in love with several people for several different reasons...as long as you dont use any of these people to hurt the other...there is so much we can learn from people...im not saying that we should run away everytime someone appears to be "normal" and human, but we should just accept that we know all that already and dont expect more that what that person promised to offer........themselves

rule number one about love you have to have a strong sense of your indidviduality. it is not about be coming one with someone. it is about becoming 2 better people, seperate and unqiue and enjoy in each others company. the relationship is a fine balance and every one knows all the other shit. all love is a a blancing act. and when you can distribute the weight it works.
