>If you recieve no love in return, then yes, your love will wither away.
 
Agreed...but what does that have to do with the ability to love more
than one person at a time? It is also possible to /be/ loved by more
than one person at a time.
 
While I see, and agree with, your point that if you start loving
everyone around you, or if you love easily, that love doesn't mean very
much, that /doesn't/ mean that you must therefore love only /one/ person
for the love to have meaning, it means your love should be an uncommon
commodity. To extend your own plutonium-vs-dirt metaphor, if you got
/two/ handfuls of plutonium that don't suddenly make it as worthless as
dirt...
