Maybe never, maybe twice. I have no clue whether what I felt, while I know there was huge love there, would qualify as "in love".

Six.

Very glad to have been in that position, each time.

Equally glad we/I knew when to move on.

There's still love for all of them on various levels, but love and life can't be forced together.

Different things with differing needs.

Three times and they all broke my heart. Empty words rather than proper reciprocated feelings. Sadly I've never loved anyone who has actually loved me back.

While for years I assumed I wasn't good enough, now I realise I just settled for so little and allowed it to happen.

I love quite deeply, quite freely. I like caring for others, when they leave a little mark on my heart long after things have ended.

Been in love though? I think there's a distinction there.

Three times. The first, I'll always love her. She's engaged to her partner, we're still good friends but it wasn't meant to be - we were too young, too intense, too exhausting. We still talk weekly. Have done for over a decade now.

The second was poor timing. I'd only recently realised I was poly, he had me on a pedestal and then Covid happened. I'm not in love with him any more but I hope he's happy.

And then there's my fiancé. I always thought love was meant to be a turbulent thing, that passion and real, true love were bedfellows of heated arguments, storming out, angry words, crying. I suppose that's the Literature student in me. My love for my fiancé is gentler. Calmer. It's like coming inside from a raging storm and drying by the fireplace. It's not being placed on a pedestal, being accepted for all of who I am. My waffling ND self.

So yes, three times.

OMG.

I fall in love every 5 minutes. It’s a blessing and a curse.

It is great to have those intoxicating, inebriating, euphoric feelings of love, but man, when the lows happen it is… drove me to the deepest pits of hell when I was younger.

I am in love now, but not reciprocated- at least not romantic love. I am amazed at how maturely and calmly I am taking it.

I feel thibgs much more shock-absorbed or dulled these days. Must be the menopause

I’ve been single ever since (22 years) and had massive self-confidence issues causing eating disorders etc.

I fall in love too easily, but later realise it was infatuation and not love. So I'd say I've been in love maybe 10 times, but only truly, and deeply in love twice.

I've been married 4 times, and think I only truly loved my first wife and last wife.

Since I broke up with my last wife, I've decided I don't want to ever live with anyone again. There will be girlfriends and lovers, but I've cut myself off from ever wanting to go through that again.

I met my last wife through FAB, and we managed nearly 12 years together. We're still the best of friends, and still love each other I believe. Shame we couldn't make it work in the end.

Difficult one to answer, two for certain, whether that was both ways is another thing. Others where I thought I was.

Heartbreak goes deep, how someone can turn or be not what I thought and the foolishness that goes with it.

Some shame at not feeling good enough. Some envy of others. Some deluded hope that I might experience it again. But I guess it’s the emptiness that’s sometimes in the pit of the stomach and wishing that was different and to feel emotionally fulfilled.

I hear ‘your a good ..’ a lot, it might be what I am, but doesn’t give me hope or make me feel better about it.

Realistically, I don’t think it’ll happen again. I’m not looking for someone to live with me and it’s not on the radar right now.

Three times in my twenties .... broke heart of the first, heart broken by second, married third too quickly, divorced 2 years later.

Once in my thirties ... married and stayed with them too long. Eventually realised love was more than words, it's how someone treats you. And loving someone won't change them.

Had strong feels twice in my 40's but it didn't deepen to proper love because neither times was it reciprocated.

Now not sure I could romantically utter the L word again.

Truly, once and how so.

It’s hard to describe and I imagine everyone feels it a different way.

The warmest feeling at a smile, flutters at a touch. Warmth of the comfort when things were bad and the tenderness of a kiss when things were good.

Being able to be vulnerable and yet still feel safe. Knowing they feel the same and seeing it reflected in their eyes or smile.

The bottomless emptiness at the thought of harm befalling them or losing them.

Once to have loved deeply and that strongly is enough for me. Unfortunately it drifted apart as we did.

or in love with the warmth of the emotion that it gives, then perhaps that is love.

I have know the love of my child.

I have know the constant striving to be the acceptable child to a parent

i have know the abuse and cruelty of one human being to another

i have striven to find the thing that was missing without knowing what 'it' was that i was seaking

now - I have given up - i take the emotions of the fun with another person, the connectivity and thats me done.

In all seriousness, there’s nothing wrong with that. But the most important thing is to be happy, right? If finding a person would make you happy, don’t close yourself off to that.

3 times. Well, I say 3, married my first husband and I thought I was in love, then I met the current husband and it felt totally different to what I felt for my first husband, totally different in everyway. X

"Three³ times seems to be the prevailing number here, having read some of the responses.

Is there a significance to three in love's theme?

In all seriousness, there’s nothing wrong with that. But the most important thing is to be happy, right? If finding a person would make you happy, don’t close yourself off to that. "

The idea of it is nice mate I’d love to find the right one to share my home with and see out my days just think time not on side and with so many failures chances of it happening pretty low would rather keep my expectations low haha

I get infatuated very quickly.

At the time, I felt I was in love with an ex boyfriend and in love with my ex husband.

The more I hear people talk about the pain of breaking up, I wonder if it was love or just an infatuation that lasted a number of years. I seemed to get over then both quite easily.

I am in love now. She isn't involved in the swing world at all and I have no chance of anything happening with her at the present time either.. Had dates and still see her every day as we work together.

"I love quite deeply, quite freely. I like caring for others, when they leave a little mark on my heart long after things have ended.

Been in love though? I think there's a distinction there.

The second was poor timing. I'd only recently realised I was poly, he had me on a pedestal and then Covid happened. I'm not in love with him any more but I hope he's happy.

So yes, three times. "

I loved reading this. Very eloquently put

Twice for me. I wouldn’t say never again but it is certainly not a priority right now. My life is pretty fulfilling without the complication of considering an additional human’s needs, but I certainly wouldn’t shy away from a connection with the right person if stumbled upon

Twice for each of us:

Obviously each other and then one other each!

I mean I've uttered the words but don't think I've ever been in love. 1st person told me they loved me whilst I was balls deep in them.. entrapment

Got me worried bud but if it’s to be, then it’s to be.

Fuck I’m quoting Doris Day ‘que sera, sera’

You know what I don't think I was ever in love with the ex husband. I think it was just a series of events that happened and then I was married and had kids. So I'm not going to count him.

Knowing that, I've felt the love twice. One is current!!! (Kiss emoji to the Mr) I'm 40 and that has only been recently. How sad is that?!
