| What do you think of a guy who is in a relationship and is still active on a dating site? Posted: 11/26/2005 7:13:49 AM | I have asked myself this question...If I meet a guy and I am interested ...Do I still check out my dating sites? Difficult to answer...could justify, that Im here for the Forums? Ha Ha I think perhaps its a matter of time in an uncertain world...if two met and it gets serious then certain strickly dating sites should probably go bye bye but until then...Im checking out my other options. Communication...ahhh thats the key. | |

A couple doesn't sit down and have a heart to heart talk about where they are in the relationship and where they want to be in a relationship. People "assume" that they are in an exclusive relationship when they aren't. Before you become emotionally and especially physicially intimate, sit down and discuss the relationship. At that point each of you can make that decision to take the profiles down.
If I meet someone online, I would hide my profile on POF, but I would still continue from time to time to write on the forums, but I would discuss this with the man I would be dating. It really boils down to good communication with each other. You may or may not like what you hear, but at least you will know where things stand. | |

Posted: 11/27/2005 2:47:43 AM | | I wouldn't take my profile down for someone I was dating, but I would definitely be clear in my profile and to the people who messaged me regardless of what's written... that I'm currently seeing someone. I do that out of respect for my partner but mostly for the people who think I'm available to date. It's the courteous thing to do. | |

Posted: 11/27/2005 5:44:07 AM | I must state in advance that -- I qualify – I am in a relationship and I still have my profile active on PoF – and my girlfriend is a “fishie” too! We are both POFFAs (Forum Addicts). We discuss forum topics daily in our phone conversations, and we discuss some of our favorite forum contributors (Nice legs, Indi!). I have made changes to my profile to reflect my status, (but I still get inquiries.).
I exchange emails with a few PoF friends occasionally – not as a “come on” but rather as a matter of mutual respect and regard.
My status as a man in a committed relationship has not rescinded my position as a member of the human race; it has only whetted my desire for affiliation. As my relationship with her has grown, I have become more in touch with myself, and my ability to interface with others in an honorable way has been enhanced.
I perceive only positives. | |

Posted: 11/27/2005 7:15:59 AM | If someone who is in a committed relationship, and their profile is still up and they are active on a dating site, I would say they aren't really committed and have issues with letting go of being single, unless we are talking about POF. If it is only POF, it is because he/she is a forum addict, so the issue now becomes finding a good POF rehab center. | |

Posted: 1/20/2006 8:21:53 AM | | This guy who who is still active in a dating site might feel that his girlfriend isn't as commited as he is. I was in a relationship where I wanted more commitment...she wanted to take it slow. I wanted to spend more time with her...she said...if we lived near each other ...things would be different. I am sorry...but unless the person who posted this topic...is totally commited and SHOW IT. KEY WORD - SHOW IT...he has the right to do whatever he wants. | |

Until you actually talk about something..you can't expect someone to know your wants/desires/expectations. You removed your profile because that is how you feel about it. Maybe he feels no threat in still talking to other women because he is secure in how he feels about you. Be careful on this one. | |

We met each other here, so we decided to stay here. Our profiles are clear that we're not here to find someone to "date" but for our friends and the forums. He reads my posts I read his. We're on at different times because of our work schedules. It's not an issue with us, if it does become one I'm sure we'll discuss it and decide what to do. | |

I'd forget, get sidetracked, or wouldn't want to. If people were e-mailing me, I'd go on to see what they said. Maybe even reply. New friends are always good.
I'd say if you started "going out" as bf and gf, mention it to him. Say something along the lines of, "You never changed your profile to say you're seeing someone." Remember. Not all guys are sneaky. Some are just oblivious. | |
