Can a guy really love two girls at once?
Hmm, well it depends what you mean by love.
I'd say there are all sorts of levels of love. Level 2 might be the love you feel for a pet goldfish or a favourite flavour or crisps. Level 20 is the kind of love that inspires people to get engaged and write bad song lyrics. It's the levels in between that cause problems.
Don't get upset, but I reckon the Levels Theory (which, admittedly, I have just invented) makes it possible for boys to love at least two girls at once.
Most people will fall in love more than once in a lifetime. Some people do it more than once a year. But you love people different amounts - and for different reasons. One girl might have a big heart (level 11-15); another might have a big swimming pool (level 4-6).
All these levels make it quite common for boys to love exes and girlfriends and other people's girlfriends all at the same time. But there will always be one girl he loves more than the others. So it doesn't really matter, as long as that's the girl he's with.
You might argue that the lower levels of love (e.g. crisp love) aren't really love at all - and you might be right. But they could still feel like love. Ideally, you'll all meet boys that love you at level 20, making all other love incidental.
But to increase your chances, it wouldn't hurt to get yourself a swimming pool and a multi-pack of Pickled Onion Monster Munch.
