Can a man love two women at the same time?

Sounds like a familiar thread.

Yes, I think it is possible.

To play the devils advocate: wife, mother, daughters, granddaughters, nieces, girlfriends, etc.
 
I had a friend at work, many years ago. She was engaged to a lovely man, and she also had a lover whom she met in the lunch hour for a quickie. We all thought she was disgusting. It's a pity her husband to be didn't know about the Loverboy as I'm sure
he would have dumped her. No, she married him and made his life unbearable.
 
Depends on the type of love we're talking about. If we're talking romantic love (which I assume we are), I don't think you could love both equally, someone would get slighted. In that respect, I would say no.
 
I think you have different levels of love.
In a case of a widow for example she may still love a deceased spouse and find new love with another. Not exact same time but still strong feelings.
We may love someone in a more platonic way for example an ex-spouse who you shared a life/ perhaps kids with but have no romantic feelings anymore and someone you have a strong romantic love or perhaps that is more lust.
either way I do not think the intensity of love is equal perhaps one fading as a new one blooms.
 
My response is more non-traditional. I had a gay partner of 6 years in the 80's. We had a home together. We eventually split up because we were both young and were moving in different directions. His name was Angel, for reference.

I met my current hubby almost 10 years later, but I still kept in touch with Angel. In fact, hubs and I used to get together with him and his new partner. I never stopped loving Angel but I knew we would never be a couple again. He came to my father's funeral 12 years after we'd split up. That's love. So, yes, I guess it's possible to love two people under certain circumstances.

Along these lines, I would imagine there a quite a few straight "exes" who still love each other but have moved on with other spouses.
 
Yes! I've loved two men at the same time (and they both loved me), though I never got physical with the one who was not my partner. Having such deep feelings for them both was agonizing at times because I knew I could never be with man #2. I wouldn't cheat on my partner, so kept the relationship with man #2 in the friend zone. We respected each other as such and still stay in touch, though not on a regular basis.
