MM: I was thinking that the intention was lover/companion as a part of their everyday life, long-term meaning many years. So there would be two commitments for the one lover, that I suppose would ebb and flow. I was thinking an acceptance of the way it was rather than any plotting or planning. I was perhaps thinking in a more ideal, fictional way. What if there were no other intentions? What if the relationships really were kept separate by all parties, with no judgement.
I think I might feel a little differently about love than you do right now, although I certainly understand how you feel and have felt that way myself at times. Lately, I believe one can be deeply in love with more than two people at a time and maintain separate, fulfilling relationships. Of course the only examples I can think to give you don't include lovers, but do include falling deeply in love with one's children, and I believe that is very deep love. Or having a loving group of friends, which can sometimes be deep.
