In my thinking when you get to the point of dating you have passed the friends stage and are trying to figure out if you would marry the person.



I don't think you could be "dating" several people and think that they are all worth marrying. If a girl is dating multiple guys then I wouldn't have any interest in being with her.

It isn't as old school as it once was. That is why I posted the question I wanted to know if I was alone in how I am thinking. I think that dating at 1st is dating and its not going out of the friend stage until you both agree to the same agreements of each others wants in the relationship. You bring the attention to each other. Such as " I am not dating others and I don't want to date any others.I am sure you will get a response just asking it. I think no one can really get to that exclusive point until its been clear of how one is feeling toward the other. When you find that out then its past the friend stage for me. If I find the man is working with me in actual communication and honesty the man's got my attention.



And I agree if you are a person that can date several people and think that all are worth marrying. Your right again she shouldn't be a woman to consider.

I would never date a woman who was dating another man under any circumstances. To me, the word dating implies an exclusive relationship in which two people get to know each other on a level deeper than that of friendship. When a couple agrees to date, it's as though a seed of love is planted and the couple work together to cultivate it. The plant might wilt (the couple might break up), or it may grow tall and strong (marriage). If the couple reaches the marriage stage, then they work together to protect the plant until one person dies. I think if one tries to grow more than one plant at a time, one will end up with several smaller plants. I would rather have one large beautiful one. I think it's better to date one at a time, if one thinks one needs to. That way, one plant is given time to wilt and fade away before a new one springs up. All of the person's attention can then be given to the new plant so it can grow as large and strong as possible.

Depends on if she tells you when you first go into the relationship rather than telling you weeks or months into a relationship.

Thanks for your reply my question was more toward how a man would feel about a woman they asked out on a date, or wanting to date. And the woman told you upfront about dating other's when you did ask her out.

The question is what does it mean to date? If dating means to go out with friends then i guess there's nothing wrong. because you are both just going out with friends. But if dating means boyfriend.girlfriend/holding hands etc Then there is no way that you can date others as well. To "date" in the group, i believe is just a copout way of saying, i want the back door open and i dont want to commit.



A friend once said " i will never date a girl if i know she is not marriage material, or basically would stop at at any point where he realises it, Because if i do that , then I'm messing with someone else's wife".



Now to me that attitude is commendable, and i respect a guy who thinks like that, But i dont respect a guy who wants the backdoor to be open, just in case.



If you like a girl, you go for it with everything you have and if at any point you realise, its not going to work out, Then only do you back off, but not while youve got ten to choose from. Each person will have something good in them and in the end you'll probably be stuck with nothing 'cause they will have moved on. You cannot connect with ten people at the same time, your "heart" will go wonky and like another friend once told me, the velcro wont stick any more.



Sorry but I believe that God has given us good common sense and he wants us to be comitted to those we love, not beat around the bush. without "dode" greekword for love, godly love, committed love, a relationship cannot survive. The velcro wont stick, 'cause there's too many dog hairs inbetween, :laugh:



God bless, if you're serious about a relationship, God will come through for you and He will direct your paths
