I have been in some relationships with the wrong people by being exclusive. If you're up front that you want to date different people and you don't want to commit, I see nothing wrong with it. Take your time and really get to know someone first. If the other person doesn't like that you don't want to commit, they have the option to stop talking to you at any time! Good luck in finding the right one! I agree with your point in taking time to discover if they are the right one, but there are ways to discover that, you continue dating them until you find out enough about them to know and start to fall in love. Dating someone else is not going to tell you any more about them, that is only going to tell you about someone else. This raises the question, do you really know what you are looking for, if you do, then clearly the person you are dating is not for you, because if they were for you, why would you want to date someone else until you had exhausted the possibility of a relationship with them as the right one for you. This is only my viewpoint muse62 welcome to Mingle2

I feel that being on a dating site still looking is disrespectful to the other person especially when their profile says they want a ltr. It's like they aren't able to commit to just one person if they aren't sure then man up and tell the person hey let's just date and keep our options open, if that person is okay with that great if not you can keep looking............. and good luck with that

if one is married, the options should be closed... Very true. However, the ring ain't stopping people from looking at there "options". I know when I was married, temptation was out there. However, I was committed to my wife....until she became a cheating biatch.

Ok.. I say and hear this a lot.. From people that are dating casually but looking for something serious long term... Now is it appropriate well seeing somebody and getting to know them to be also seeing other people at the same time.... or as an example let's say you're seeing somebody offline right now but you keep your profile online still running... basically keeping your options open.... Some believe once you meet someone and start seeing them.. dating them casually however... you should not have your interest anywhere else. Some believe if you're just dating casually but looking for long term.. It's quite alright to keep dating other people.. keeping your options open.. Now is this a form of sitting on the fence?.. Is it unfair to be stringing the other person a long while you keep looking.. Even know you explained your position to them clearly.. and they say they're okay with that they understand... Firstly I feel a bit weird dating multiple people... but at the same time I don't want to close off any option of meeting the right person while I'm entertaining or dating what .could be the wrong person... If that makes sense? so there was this thread already lol

i believe this is not an option for a committed relationship unless both partners agree to the set up.

Isn't that an excuse to double date?? I mean I know what I want and I won't settle for less. If I want a serious relationship then a casual dating would be lock in a dungeon.

I want a serious relationship.. if I am seeing someone in a non friendly sense ie getting to know them then I'm looking for a ltr with them.. that's how I tick.. that to me means I only want to know them dating wise.. I would communicate with anyone else who messaged me what I am doing.. this sounds judgemental but to me honesty and expressing what you want are key.. I want a relationship with 1 woman and when I go out with someone.. until stated otherwise by either party.. then I am with them.. irrespective of whether it's the 1st or 40th date.. my emotions will be 100 per cent with the lady I'm seeing..
Romance and love come from trust and inner qualities as well as attraction.. just my opinion |

Human can never be satisfied with anything they want and have. I guess also finding the right relationship is as difficult as finding the right partner. At times we think we're doing things right for us even if the fact tells us there's something wrong. If one has a partner and continuously searches for another man or woman its gives an obvious picture of a relationship failure.

communication is always important I am usually under an 'assumption' that there is no exclusivity unless expresssly communicated, UNTIL a sexual relationship occurs for me, there is going to be no sexual relationship without the commitment of exclusivity but, just online communications? I expect them to have ,know, and communicate with others, and I suppose I assume they are expecting the same. |

if there is security, commitment, trust and love i dont see any reason why a person would want to keep their options open. these factors are hard to come by so when we find it in a relationship its time to focus and nurture that love.
