Dating multiple women: opinion?

<p>Is that considered wrong? Opinions from both genders appreciated.</p>

<p>I think it is.</p>

<p>I guess it depends on your expectations for the relationship.</p>

<p>If you go out on a date with someone friday night, and go on a date with someone else saturday night, but aren't in a relationship with either person, I think it could be okay.</p>

<p>Have two on-going relationships - not okay. You'll have to pick one to be "in a relationship with" on facebook anyway. And we all know a relationship isn't legit until it's on facebook.</p>

<p>oh indeed. facebook is the law of the land.</p>

<p>If either thinks it's exclusive (and you'll know) then it's wrong. If nobody thinks its exclusive then there's no problem.</p>

<p>Are your other women dating other men? If so, and if everyone's open and okay with this setup, then go for it, I guess. I'd never want that, though.</p>

<p>Hm, it really depends on the situation. I have rules for myself when it comes to this. If the girl is a friend or someone I know relatively closely, even the first date is definitely exclusive. If she's some random girl I've only talked a couple times to, then it's ok to date around IN THE BEGINNING. And by beginning, I mean you have to decide probably after the second or third date, and only if she is ok with it. But that's just my personal rule, because I'm not really into non-exclusive dating in general. If you both know the other is dating other people, then it can go on for as long as you like, I guess!</p>

<p>I'm sort of/kind of doing this right now. They don't know about each other and I'm a total douchebag.</p>

<p>I can't wait for this to blow up in my face!</p>

<p>I really think it's okay to casually date more than one person at a time. Playing the field is really the ony way to go, especially in high school/college.</p>

<p>I agree with umcp11... it's only ok in the very very beginning. After a couple dates, you'll need to make a choice, before things get physical.</p>

<p>Personally, I think it's ok to be talking to and hanging out with a few possibilities at a time, but once you actually start going out-on-one on one dates, you should have made your decision.</p>

<p>I think a couple dates in the beginning is okay, but after that you need to figure out which one you like better and go with that one. Generally, girls think they are the only one in your life, even if that is not the case, and they will probably be pretty upset and dump your ass before you can get really started with them if they find out they're only 1 of 3 or 4.</p>

<p>I applaud your courage.</p>

<p>Dating multiple women?</p>

<p>In short: awesome.</p>

<p>I think thats called <em>coughcheatingcough</em>. I think post #5 has the right idea.</p>

<p>Depends on the situation. If you are in serious relationships with multiple women(serious does not equal sex IMO, but rather an actual emotion filled relationship) then yeah, I would advise against it because you are only going to hurt people. But, if you are just like fooling around with people then dating multiple people isn't a big deal.</p>

<p>srcameron wins it.</p>

<p>what they don't know don't hurt them.</p>

<p>Just keep it open and honest. That way it is never an issue. I always tell girls on the first date, first phone call, or right when I get their number in the bar or party, that I am not into relationships and I am just a casual, serial dater. But for some reason they never turn and run, I think secretly they are hoping to change me. last summer I pulled off dating four chicks at the same job and none of them cared.</p>

<p>Don't sweat it, have fun, and get to know people. you learn a lot about yourself by hanging out with a variety of people.</p>

<p>I would say just be upfront and honest about it. If they don't know about each other and think it's exclusive it'll end badly for everyone. As long as they know and realize that they are free to see other people as well, I don't really see a problem.
Not really a situation I'd want to be involved in, but...whatever floats your boat.</p>
