You can get to know multiple people (that you aren't committed to) without sleeping with them.
As friends yeah but some dudes/chicks aren't going for that if they think they are worth something and or don't have a "roster". I don't think you can really get to know multiple people in a dating sense at the same time. Now if its just FB stuff yeah but real relationships I'm throwing the challenge flag on that.

I know some of you may not have experience with this problem... :mjpls:

And some of you don't have to choose because you keep a roster... :win:

But how do you choose the right person to give your attention to/ or to get in a relationship with when you got multiple options?

Y'all always saying women should choose better, so what's your advice? First come, first serve? Or play the field?


Truthfully, most men know "the right one" when we see her. It's just that she usually doesn't meet our unrealistic physical standards. Unfortunately, the allure of fast women in booty shorts is something most men struggle with. Even a good dude could get caught up on a bad day.

That's why I recommend men not get married until early-mid 30's. At that point, we tend to start focusing on women's souls more than their titties.

are you responding to yourself? did you think this was your alias account? :dwillhuh:

edit: i noticed when it comes to "the safe option", y'all gotta make him some how oppressive. :heh:
Lol no, just posting a random thought. I only added the oppressive part because when you choose a man who has more to give sometimes they use that as a weapon and hold it over you.

Some guys aren't genuinely generous. They fake it so they can bring it up later. "See what I did for you/ You were nothing before me/Don't forget, the car is in my name/etc" (Not exclusive to men, women do it too)

I was really referring to the early dating stages, not relationships. If I meet someone today, then someone else tomorrow I can get to know the both of them until I commit to one of them. Getting to know multiple people isn't hard.

Exactly; if you're a half-way decent person, it's possible that more than one half-way decent person will be interested in you.... at the same damn time, no less. People treating it like Highlander and shyt :russ:

When it came to dating, I made my intentions clear to any mutually-interested suitors. Even though I know all relationships are different, I had plenty of positive, long-term relationship examples to gain insight from (and plenty of bad ones too so I knew what NOT to do) and I went from there.

I'm a pretty decisive person, so I quickly knew what would and wouldn't work for me in a relationship, and it made sorting the wheat from the chaff easier. Once I met my now husband, everything just clicked... after an initial period of me hating his guts LOL

why did you hate his guts and what changed

My appeal is different. I'm "cute", "sweet/innocent" and "pretty". People who come to me tend to want relationships. They see me as a "good girl".

I disagree if you're trying to date them which honestly most people are or at least putting out there. When most people (even guys/girls that are "players) ime meet someone new they like being all up on them at first male/female so when doing this how people going to run the routine with 2/3 or more different people at the same time? That's why I say its more outlier stuff and why a lot of cats end up with nothing running with this routine. I also think people are scarred is another reason why they do it because if you think you any good at picking partners why not just rock with one person at a time? Again that's only if you trying to be serious if its just fb do you.

I think people should do what works for them. I'm a relationship kinda gal so my intentions are made clear from the beginning and if I see otherwise I have no issues walking away. However, I can see it from the point of view of someone who dates multiple people instead of 'putting their eggs in one basket'. I see nothing wrong with it, as long as there is no commitment involved.

Sounds like most girls that look like you honestly. You don't look like the chick for the sexual fantasies stuff (at least to the dudes I roll with) but moreso the chick dudes want to have as a wife cause you're a "good girl". I can see all them descriptions you mentioned being used but I think that's a gift and a curse too just like being a "nice guy" at times depending on what you're looking for dating wise. I know who people that are "nice guys" and "good girls" will end up with almost all the time and some don't like who them people usually are at least from my small online/offline sampling.

The fact that you even have to chose means the choice has been made for you! It's niether:yeshrug:

When that sh!t is real it grabs you it moves you to work for it. Not lay back in the cut and see what's up. So they both are safe options for you because you can potentially see yourself doing fine without either one.
They don't stoke those internal flames for you they aren't a muse for you intellect.
Just perhaps good people:francis:

I don't have a mess :pachaha:

I have options because I know a few people who have shown interest. Doesn't mean I'm dating them or have even exchanged numbers with them. It's not as messy as y'all make it seem. I mean just that... that I have options.

you know daddy is right :ufdup:

Pick the one who has your best interests at heart
