Benvolio doesn't seem to love anybody in Romeo and Juliet. In fact at the end of 1.1, and again at the beginning of 1.2 he seems to be teasing Romeo about being in love with Rosaline.

But Benvolio's teasing is quite gentle - so perhaps Benvolio has been in love himself at some stage.

Mercutio also teases Romeo about his love for Rosaline (2.1, and again at 3.1) - but Mercutio's teasing is vicious and obscene. Mercutio clearly has some kind of an issue with girls.
