There's a word for a man who thinks he owns you when you've been on one date: stalker.

You should be dating. She should be dating. At some point there should be a mutual discussion about exclusivity. _Mutual_.

I date one at a time, but not sure this is true of men I choose. I mean if a guy is REALLY in to me as he says, he'll make time to show up.

I've had boyfriends in the past who were like a shadow. He was ALWAYS here. These were ones I met offline though. Guess it's easier than these online ones cause they see my character everyday for what it is.

I have not had a guy over in over 5 yrs, which my neighbor asks about. My comment is "I don't want a bunch of guys here".

Unless/until the relationship has reached the stage of 'the talk' about being exclusive and intimate, there's no reason anybody has to date only one person at a time.

Dating is the process of learning who someone else is. It's not designed to be a commitment of itself. If you know a few other people and you like to spend time with them, what you're doing is 'shopping' and eventually narrowing the field to your favourites among those who want to date you.
Nobody should put expectations on the other when all you're doing is shopping.

Until you're prepared to commit to a 'purchase', you're entitled to browse and sample.

I don't mean sample sexually: that I would compare to bringing the outfit home and wearing it around without paying for it. Yep, I'd kinda think of it as stealing ...

Dating = I get to know you. I get to know others too, and they get to know me.
Commitment = You're my favourite. I like you. Can I keep you?

Well, honestly, you gotta strike while the iron's hot, and if you've got a few guys interested you have to make the most of it. It seems to be either feast or famine with dating and you have to take advantage of the situations. I don't really like dating more than one person at a time, like I'm forced to do right now , but it's better than sitting at home alone on a Saturday night.

I personally wouldn't do it.

I know of a guy who would date many girls at once, but he quit that when one got jealous and vandalized his car like in that Carrie Underwood song.

Well, women dating multiple guys. I have to agree that I don't get it too.

No they don't...at least I don't. It bothers me to play with someone like that. You can't make out and pretend to have a great night with one person then do it again the next without someone getting hurt. Its called having to make a decision and obviously something you're not good at...

Everyone is different and everyone has different dating styles.

Why all the hate? Why not just date people who have the dating style you like or will tolerate?

If someone is different than you, or has a dating style that you don't approve of, is it really necessary to invest your soul into despising them for it?

I mean, I don't get all the negativity.

Personally, if I am seeing a girl and find out she is dating other guys too, it's an instant rejection from me. But there's no spite in it. It's her perogative to date how she wants to date.

So.... I don't get the angst.

So why do women date multiple men at once? Why can't you date one guy at a time? It's so frustrating when they don't know the correct information about you... I don't get it...


Laughing...you are kidding, right?.....For the same reason men do the same.......

I try to focus on one man at a time, but I suspect they do it for same reasons men do it...If they aren't serioius about you then they continue to date others and you are not exclusive...

Anybody who keeps up with my posts knows that I am no feminist, but guys date multiple women just as much as women date multiple guys, if not more so.

I'll admit I haven't read all 43 pages of this thread, post by post.

But I am still taken aback, and seeing again that "dating" seems to have many different definitions here.

I don't have just one friend at a time. Why should I have a date with just one man at a time?

Only smart women date many men at the same time until they find the qualities that they are looking for and a huge tool, then they discard the rest and live happily ever after....lol
