For further hotel details please review the fact sheet located in this Digest, and for the Downtown Merchant details please visit the following webpage:. The more you share, and the more time you spend together, you are always con: 'do I want to spend my time, my effort, my life with this person. Dating, on the other hand, is a process where a person gets to know another person for the sole purpose of determining if that person would be a suitable partner. As stated above, an anon relationship is a mutual agreement between two people that neither one is romantically pursuing other partners. Not every day is filled with hearts, bells, and whistles. You take your online dating profiles down.

I like to pursue it pretty exclusively......... I think I'm probably pretty unrealistic in my expectations... Perhaps I have just been out of touch a little too long...... I think I likely need to readjust my thought patterns and expectations. What does the over 45 crowd think about this subject? Do you date casually more than one person at a time? There was a gentleman that I dated for a long time, all while, dating other people. I did not talk about my other dates with him but we had an agreement that if eithe one of us found someone we wanted to date exclusively, we would tell the other. So, wishful I did start with the same expectations you had then I learned through this experience which was very positive that I am a free agent and I will know when I find someone I want to concentrate on. Meanwhile, I date ,,, nothing wrong with that. Besides, there are many positive side effects to dating ,, besides having fun ,,, you get to practice your social skills, relating, to people of the opposite sex, flirting 101 and so forth, practice listening and also have the opportunity to better understand your self and the opposite sex in general and to hopefully get a pretty good idea for what traits to look for in a partner and those to avoid like the plague. I could practice a lot of useful skills like those you mention.... Thanks for your perspective on this...... I've traded email with several very nice ladies and dated a couple. These would have come under the heading of casual dating. We had a good time. I found I was uncomfortable hunting for someone. I'm thinking, I don't even know you well enough to know if I like you yet aka: the reason for dating - why would I commit after 1 or 2 dates? Kinda crazy, but for every time she's been hurt... Say what you will - my way my thinking works for me - if it don't work for my next potential girl friend - she is NOT my next potential girl friend. Rene'e - high school - two way eye contact and it was all over - couple Cathy - high school - one phone call - it was - couple Rxxxx - First sight - married 16 years - saw her at a drive in rest - Sxxxx - between wives - first blind date from a newspaper add before these sites - live in gf 1 year - Txxxx - first date - blind date - married 17 years There was NO QUESTION either way from the first five minutes with any of the above mentioned females. If I meet a female that finds something more important about me than I am - she can go back to fishing. Usually after two or three dates I can tell if I want to pursue the relationship to any degree.... Probably when it gets right down to it... I just want the great results! Totally unrealistic, of course........ I may be the weird duck in the pond, but to be honest? I never really think about casual vs. I mean, when I can! I meet men on a casual basis as friends. I make no demands of them. Remember back when we were kids and dating? I don't remember any of us thinking that way. I have not changed my dating style and it has worked well for me so far. No issues, no drama! And I have made great friends along the way. You are such darlins! OT: Truly, that is how I feel. Like how does one know that this is what they want after a first meet? You know next to zip about that person..... I like things the way I do it. It's really interesting to read the perspectives here, and see how others think - I'm relatively new to the forums, and like this feature of PoF a lot! Remember back when we were kids and dating? I don't remember any of us thinking that way. I have not changed my dating style and it has worked well for me so far. No issues, no drama! Overanalyzing is a wonderful way to talk yourself out of something... If it is exclusive, it will happen without anyone saying it... In an honest relationship, both will know... I'd have trouble casually dating more than 1 fish at a time. I have always been like that and I find it as difficult now as I ever did. I agree with Ron that you just know - real fast. The reason I'm here is to find a partner and that means exclusivity. Now I'm not so naive to think this would happen immediately. Yes, we have to see each other a few times and then make that decision together. If the relationship's right, then it'll happen. But during that time of discovery, it won't be me casually dating other guys. I know I'll want to focus on the person I think is important and not use any energy at all for casualness. And Wishful, I don't think this is unrealistic at all. Life's too short for wasting time. I think I have enough confidence in myself to recognize a good match when I see it. And I hope I have the daring to only accept what's best for me.
