Promiscuity...what does it mean really. Aren't we all promiscuous at some level. No...I'm not suggesting everybody sleeps around. But at the intellectual level, most of us are attracted to more than one person at a time. You could be committed to someone, but that doesn't really stop you from looking at the stranger at the bus-stop or bookstore or local train and actually feeling disappointed when you don't see them around. The feeling reserved for that one significant other, sometimes creeps in when you're looking at your best friend...albeit of a much lower intensity and degree...does that make you promiscuous?...
And everyone you like, you like for a reason. And everyone you like gives you something else, each person you like is needed by a different aspect of your personality.
Intellectually, you could be giving a lot more to someone whom you're not necessarily seeing. Even emotionally. Not 'love' exactly, just more of 'you'...does that make you promiscuous.
Can someone be cheated on only physically? What if I felt attracted to someone I wasn't seeing at that point of time? Even if I managed to shake the feeling off...wouldn't I have been promiscuous for that moment in time?

My english teacher used to say... "You steal one rupee, you're a thief, you steal 10 rupees, ALSO you are a thief" ... didnt understand him then.... still dont.
But thats stealing. Love is different . Atleast i hope it still is.... last time i checked it was.
Lust apart, I dont think you can actually be "in love" with 2 people at the same time.

you think about it and then realise wat you hav is not worth throwing away...at least most o the time tats wat happens to folks.but even the having to think that should not happen.
Doubts will always arise... as humans, we have a short attention span. And for someone to keep our attention... well, easier said than done.
if you're giving 'more of you' to a person who you're not 'seeing'... you are'nt really promiscuous, you just dont love the person you're seeing, anymore. You could try working on it... just because of the 'time spent'... but its tough for such gaps to fill.
