It"s possible to romantically love more than one person at once.

1) I do agree that there are many different definitions and levels of the word "love". 2) I also agree on the clarification that we are talking about "romantic love" in this debate. 3) I agree that the definition of having romantic love is defined as having a strong passionate affection towards someone or something, however, it needs to be clarified that in this debate we are strictly speaking about people (human beings) and whether or not it is possible to love more than one person at once (romantically). 4) I agree with the point made that the definition doesn't define a limit to how many people you can love at once, however the definition doesn't say anything regarding whether it is possible or not, and therefore it simply is not a valid argument. 5) I do not agree with this argument that you can still have an ex-partner who you may no longer see and can still be romantically in love with them. I don't agree because if you are no longer seeing them again (as stated in premise 5) you cannot be romantically together with that person and have a true affection towards them still. 6) I do not agree with premise 6 because similarly to the previous argument, you can't truly be affectionate towards a ex-partner if you can no longer see them or make contact with them in some form. 7) I do agree that sexual intercourse or "seeing someone" isn't needed to romantically love someone, however It isn't possible to have a true sense of romantic love and a true feeling of affection towards someone in which you are in love with without doing so. 8) I agree you can have sexual relationships with people and have romantic feelings towards them, however this debate is regarding being romantically in love with multiple people, and not simply having romantic, sexual feelings towards them. 9) I do agree with the fact that monogamy is the social norm in the world we live in, however there is a reason it is a standard, and that is because you can only be romantically in love with one person at a time in order to be truly in love with that individual. 10) Yes, various religions and culture have practices polygamy, but that doesn't say/ prove anything regarding whether or not those individuals whom did were romantically in-love with more than one of their partners/ spouses. 11) i disagree. In the complicated world we live in today, sure it is common for domestic problems to arise and divorce rates to have increased significantly. However when a divorced individual moves on with another person it doesn't necessarily mean that they are now romantically in love with them. they very well could have been forced to try to move on to cope with their struggle and sadness that arose from the failing marriage with the person whom they were romantically in love with. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 12) Therefore, you are not capable of loving more than one person at the same time Non-Controversial: I agree with premise 1 and 2 being non-controversial. I do not agree with premise 3, 4 and 10 being non-controversial. Controversial: I believe that all of the other premises are controversial because I don't agree with them and have evidence to support why I don't, as i have stated above.
