There are after a myriad of different types of love from love of chocolate to love of another person, be that a Mom or brother, a friend or lover (and no I am not intending to be a poet).
Right now I am in a dilemma: two amazing men love me! Neat problem, yes?
The problem: Well Lady Sheridanne lives in a virtual world where she thought she could be anyone she wanted to be.
Interesting concept, to enter a virtual world and have a new life. But, at it turns out this isn't the case. We are who we are and our strengths and weaknesses follow us everywhere -- no matter how far we try to run.
So Lady Sheridanne loves two men for many different reasons, with profound and mighty and surprisingly equal strength. In the virtual world she inhabits all she has to do is alter her hours and she can have both. Duplicitous though it is, the truth wills out in this world even though duplicity is a common habit of many. And whether you play in various time zones with impunity or you create different "selves" known as AVs (for Avatars for the uninitiated) you still pay the price for your wanderings.
- Can Lady Sheridanne be faithful to only one man -- knowing her own desires and needs?
- Can both men share her happily?
- Is there happiness to be found for Lady Sheridanne?
- Will the one she has not chosen ever forgive her?
- Will the one she has chosen be faithful and caring?
And what is fidelity in a virtual world anyway, that is a good question! Who is to know....well that is the issue at stake, the secrecy that lies within this pixelated world. And the carry over or not of personal integrity.
Does INTEGRITY matter in a virtual world where no one can ever know if you cheat or lie or steal or kill or maim or threaten?
Interesting questions to me.....I wonder how this will develop.

I think there is biological precedent for the fastest sperm to fertilize the ovum.
Of course you can take the egg out if its world + set it into a petri dish and examine it too.
So there I guess you'd have to deal with that sort of out-of-world thing.
I would put money on the one that can do both.

[drops the question about
which man will beat up the other one]
Did you know that the dark kind, of chocolate = if you have the equivalent of two hershey's kisses a day - actually lowers your blood pressure by 12 points?
Ok. So at any rate you don't want to do the two time zone thing.
Trust me on this point. Sleep deprivation can really get to you.
And SL is too addictive to play it contiguously to begin with.
Actually the way I am thinking about this, is maybe like Tolkien wrote the lord of the rings. He let real life continually intrude on his writings. It took him 12 years to write the lord of the rings.
There are some people who take SL way too seriously.
