ok i am making a pole months after (i was known as official poling agent in Mahabharat forum so much pole i used to make😆)

here i have included all known unknown love interests of Asoka , and left it to you to chose and give your reason to choose

personally i love all but devi has special place in my heart because she was not only his first love but only one who never expected any royal comfort of magadh palace. she was selfless and a strong character whose influence made her children mahendra and sanghamitra helping ashoka spreding buddhism outside India

(i not at all support ahankara as i want her for susim and i also dislike that concubine story but well asandhimitra adopted charumati so its ok)

Karuwaki was princess of kalinga who was forced to wed ashoka to save kalinga after the kalinga war . Ashoka inscription always mentioned her and her son as influence on his life to embrace buddhism

Devi 's children were most useful for Ashoka.. also the lady had suffered insult due to her caste... so i love Devi more.. but yeah Kaurwakinis also nice.

History is the most interesting subject and the most confusing as well.😆 Some say that Devi is Ashok's true love,some say Karuvaki while others prefer Asandhimitra😉

As far as I am considered,I like all three of them.But my favourite is Ashok-Karuvaki😳 It is because of all the stories its their story which has got the potential to be the most passionate one when portrayed on TV.That is just my POV😊
