Brutus' conflict over love is a theme throughout the play. Many characters throughout the play seem to contest for his love. Upset by Brutus' distracted manner as he ponders his role in the conspiracy, Portia cries out "Dwell I but in the suburbs of your good pleasure? If it be no mor Portia is Brutus' harlot, not his wife." Near the end of the play, Cassius, who seems to truly love Brutus, cries out "When thou didst hate him [Caesar] worst, thou lovedst him better than ever thou lovedst Cassius." And finally, Brutus remarks "Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more." So, possible choices include Caesar, Portia, Cassius, and Rome (or its people.) He is willing to Kill Caesar for the good of Rome, He leaves Portia in Rome where she commits suicide out of loneliness and despair, and He drives Cassius to ask Brutus to kill him because he feels he is "hated by one he loves." Perhaps, then, Brutus loves the people of Rome, since he appears to be willing to betray everyone else close to him for the republican cause. The problem with this, however, is that the people loved Caesar. What is Rome if not its people? Who was he killing Caesar for? The possibility that I personally feel is the most likely is that the only thing that he truly loves is his own honor. Near the beginning of the play, he utters the famous words "I love the name of honor more than I fear death," and from this point on he never once seems willing to forsake his nobility for love or any other pragmatic reality. The better question, then, seems to be "what" not "who" did brutus love.

Julius Caesar was married three times First to Cornelia Cinnilla in 83 BC to her death in childbirth in either 69 or 68 BC. Second to Pompeia in 67 BC until he divorced her in 61 BC. Third to Calpurnia Pisonis from 59 BC to his death in 44 BC He also had three lovers, they were Cleopatra, Servilia Caepionis and Eunoe.
Julius Caesar was married three times and was a womaniser. He had affairs with many women, including wifes of his closest allies, Euno, the queen of Mauretania and Cleopatra VII of Egypt. It was said that his lover Servilia Caepionis was his love. She was the half-sister of Cato the Younger the mother of Brutus and mother-in-law of Cassius, the leaders of the conspirators who assassinated Caesar. She became his mistress before 64 BC and remained so until his death in 44 BC. It was rumoured that Brutus was Caesar's son, but this was unlikely as Caesar was only 16 years older than him and he was in his thirties when he began his affair with Servilia.

If you mean in the play, I don't know. If you mean in reality, there are two people that come to mind, Alexander the great and his great nephew Octavian. He admired Alexander and tried to outdo him in his military conquests. Seutonius tells us that he admired Octavian for the youth's intelligence and determination.

Cleopatra was a shrewd, calculating politician. The only person Cleopatra loved was Cleopatra herself. She may have acted like she loved Caesar, but in reality she used him as a tool to gain the throne of Egypt.

Julius Caesar admired very few people in his lifetime. Among them was Alexander the Great and his great nephew Octavian. He did admire things or qualities. For instance he admired the city of Alexandria and he admired the courage and abilities of his men.
