If you are in a relationship, is it still ok to meet people from here?
Posted: 6/13/2008 10:16:26 PM

If you are dating someone intimately, and you found that they were chit chatting up the opposite sex, then meeting them in real life, would you be ok with it, if your mate was assuring you that they were just "friends", or is that a red flag?

Wouldn't work for me, but I tend to be a one-man-woman. Even in the getting to know you phase of things. I once multi-dated, but NEVER when involved intimately with one person. That is a relationship, not dating ~ not cool. JMO

Talk yes, meet no, I would not be ok with it, assuming of course that we have fully agreed to be in an exclusive intimate relationship. It depends on what has been agreed on....some people just have no intention to commit to one person......they should just say so. I can't focus on more than one individual at once. But I have no problem if somebody wanted to date other people: he just has to forget about being with me, that's all. A relationship is a relationship ( it does not matter how casual), not dating......If it is only a sexual thing, than it is neither dating nor a relationship, but it would still deserve the respect of uniqueness for the time being, in my book. Never mind that it is not healthy to play around with sexual partners or with
the feelings of friends that wish to be potential daters: it shows no respect.

For me there is no other reason to be on here...even though I DO love the forums AND participate in them right now, when I'm IN a relationship and we have both discussed monogamy, I'm outta here and I would expect him to be as well. I would give up my "entertainment" of any online dating/meeting etc. The "friends" thing is a crock There are soooooooo many other sites to meet new ppl and make friendships...a singles site is not the place for it!

The way I see it:

If you are with someone then there is no need to be looking, it would be the same if you were in a bar and he starts chatting to another woman, dont know anyone who would sit there and let that happen.

So Red Flags, if the person returns to a singles site for any reason, and you see them, they are up for grabs, kick them into touch - or of course if you want to make friends too, then you can both stay on-line fishing to your hearts content till you both meet someone new.

from my point it's ok as long as you are honest with at least of 2 out of the 3 people.

So that there is no collateral damage.


Whether you tell your Significant Other that you're on here is up to your morality and down to your realism.

Red flag man. If you are in a committed relationship there shouldn't be a need to be on a dating site. Now if there's no commitment or implied commitment than it sounds like you may need to have a conversation. Maybe you want more than your partner or vise versa. Communicate.

If you are in an exclusive relationship there is no reason to be on here. There are other ways to meet new people and make friends. I don't buy it.

See it as a red flag.

Yes you should have trust in a relationship, but this doesn't mean you have to be stupid.

This is a dating site. Simple as that.

that's a negative way to look at life and the relationship.
How can something succeed if you're expecting it to fail?

If you find a better match, I'd view that as a success,
not a failure.

No, it is not.
There is "plenty" of places in real world you can meet friends; why would you have to do it here?

If you are in a relationship with someone and you can't trust that person enough to meet whoever the heck they want to, then you shouldn't be in that relationship. Sorry.

How about someone that is married and still living together... and openly brags about how she dates and travels around with men.. ? Yet she says she is only looking for friends.. male and female.. but her profile states her likes are .. cruise ( your expense) and casinos (your money). I do not know about you all... but I do not know too many of my female friends that would pay for me a cruise or give me money to blow at casinos... and why would a man if he knows you are married.. except for one reason.

Well, I would wonder if it would be okay for you chit chat with males on line, then meet, "just for friends". Ask him if it would be alright, and start doing it.

Why does it ask you if you are divorced, separated, single, married, or taken if they are not allowed when you sign up on a dating site?

Divorced, separated, married, or taken does not mean you are single. So I don't see the problem with people being on a dating site for whatever reason. It is aloud. You should be in control of yourself.

I'm in a relationship and I have it stated as to why. And that is all that matters. I'm in control of myself and I don't get out of hand. Those that seek me out I let them know off hand that I am taken and not looking for another. I'm not giving up my sugardaddy for anybody.

Just because a WEBSITE has those options, it doesn't make it right.

That is just your opinion. Everybody either can agree or not. If it wasn't right, it wouldn't be offered.

All dating sites also have the option for you to choose from of what you are looking for such as friends, intimate encounter, sex, relationship, marriage, etc. So, there is all kinds of things offered to people. It's just not for single people.

There is no way I would come on here looking for friends if I was in a relationship.
Especially female friends !
Thats just very disrespectful of my partner.

Any one who does is really just making back ups in case something goes wrong with their relationship.

Surely you should be spending your time with your partner not trawling the dating sites ?

Yes, it is my opinion. But going over the whole thread, it seems to be the popular one.

And FYI, the website(s) are here to make money. More traffic = more profit. It's fairly common knowledge.
