Absolutely.....I think you can become "addicted" to the feeling you get when you first fall in love. Which is an unsustainable feeling, which turns you into a serial dater/relationshiper because you are always seeking that feeling.
.....why does this sound so familiar??

I believe we are all raised with Disney...ie They Lived Happily Ever After...The End. The Cinderella's, Belle, Ariel, even Manny on Ice Age finds love...*wink*. So do I think the human race is able to become addicted to "falling in love"...well, I think it would be closer to...say...falling for a crush or lusting for a crush. But to call it "in love" is over estimating. I feel a lot of us can think of at LEAST one time we "thought" we were in-love but later found out it was all based on the infatuation we had for that person but once we learned all the truths about him/her we realized it was only a strong crush...not in love. I do believe that if you have been able to give yourself up to TRUE LOVE once...you have the ability (& are twice as likely according to relationship specialist) to fall IN LOVE again. But to say a person can make it a habit...no. Habitual infatuation, YES, many of us have started out like this...always "thinking" were "in love" only to find out later (some times only a few dates is all that takes) to figure it all out...only a crush or physical attraction. We can be attracted to hundreds of ppl but find only 1 TRUE LOVE. Once you find that 1 true love your supposed to STOP looking! If you find yourself continuing to look...or wondering if your truly in love...YOUR NOT, move on & be patient. If your divorced from that "one true love" OPEN your eyes, that ex was not THE one. If that person was...you'd still be with him/her. Let someone ELSE into your life. Give up the idea that you had once found it. So many ppl make this mistake and not let anyone else close enough to be that ONE true love. Always comparing the new love with that "perfect" ex...they are an EX for a reason! And what ever that reason is...it's the reason they ended up NOT being your true love. Move on...stop confusing infatuation with true love...aka that feeling of being "in love" is just that...a feeling. We can talk ourselves into believing it's more than what it truly is. That is the real "habit"...pretending it's love so you don't have to continue to date. Then when the relationship fails...they find other ppl to "fall in love with" instead of leaving as soon as they realized it really wasn't love. Many ppl stay out of loneliness. They are really missing out if they don't hold out for the REAL thing.
For all those out there widowed from their soul mate: there is a love out there almost as good as that ONE TRUE LOVE...it's called BEST FRIEND.

It depends on the context you mean. If it is with your partner - yes because we grow in love everyday. But if it is with different people - No, because true love does not prostitute.
