Is 'the one' always going to be better than 'the second ONE'. Or do we learn from mistakes made from the ONE and get it right when the second ONE comes along?

Or is there no second one?! Just thinking out loud if anyone has any ideas.

Or...the third one...fourth one...

Alas! Unless you're very lucky indeed, the grass will always seem greener on the other side of the fence at times... It's human nature! ;)

Well I did wonder that to start with, but then I got to thinking about the Chinese that I'm having tonight. First course, second course, 9th course... get the drift ? ;)

Why not just have two at once?

The One is the most important one. After that - everything else is nothing in comparrison.

But the One need not be the first one. In fact it rarely is. Usually there is only One and you will know when that one arrives in your life. When two are both Ones then they become more than One - they become None.

This applies to many things and not jsut relationships. How?

Okay - relationships first. You start by dating and go from one person to another looking for the right one. Eventually you will find that one and possibly remain with them because they are perfect for you. But you and this person are individuals even when together and your thinking and the way you interact becomes something different. You and the person remain individuals but you also become like one person - able to understand each other and sometimes know the others thoughts and feelings. This is a risk of losing individuality, and you need to go beyond this. No matter what you do afterwards - no-one will ever match up.

In films, for instance, we get a new creation. It is number one. They bring out a follow on. In most instances this is pretty poor by comparison, and it does not matter how many times they try to improve on the first one, it generally turns out worse. Unless the follow on is better than the original due to new special fx and such - which is rare. What they dfo then is take the rubbish film and add it to the good film in a box set making it a film and a film (one and one) but no-one wants to buy it cos they know one of the films is crap so you get none.

Hope that did not help clear things up at all.

Whoah! This is a weird thread.

I believe in The One. I also believe in Two for One...

Sometimes only Buy One, get One Half Price. (Which isn't as good).
