In my opinon, people fall straight from casual dating to long-term boyfriend/girlfriend automatically without exploring other options. I think that's a mistake.
If a guy wants to date someone else while he casually dates me, I wouldn't see a problem with it. If he's LYING about where he is, pretending he's someone he's not, or feigning commitment, then he's gone when I find out. I just don't have time for dishonest people.
Besides... you're young... only 22. I wouldn't expect you to want to get tied down right now anyway. When you meet the right person, both of you will know it's right. In the meantime, enjoy life! |
Yes! This really hits the nail on the head... I just wish more women thought like you.

Unfortunately, from my experience it seems that the vast majority of them are very resistant to the idea of an open relationship... they treat it like a bad joke and they feel like they are 'being used'. But at my age it's as you say: I'm not looking to get tied down to any one person. I also have the suspicion that the right person for me won't have any hangups about open relationships so this won't even be an issue once I meet her.
