I think it’s great advice to not tie yourself down to focus on just one person while in the beginning of dating. You’re right that it takes time to get to know someone and you shouldn’t lock yourself into something that you don’t know much about. I have recently started the whole “dating” process again. This was something that has recently freaked me out; was to be tied into something that I am not sure I am ready for. Society usually says you focus on just one person when dating but I appreciate your point of view of keeping your options open. It easier to come to an understanding of what you like/need in your life if you have can a side by side comparison. This was something I needed to read and remind myself. 💕
I have so many thoughts on this. Love your balanced perspective and where it's at. I think patience is the biggest challenge here when you know what you want and you meet someone who has the potential and checks the boxes but like you said--it's important to really be able to see them for who they are and get to know them. So many thoughts lol
Hey man, I think there is a ton of wisdom in what you've started to discover. I mean,, take it from a guy who has done both. I got married, to my first wife, no sex until we were married type of thing (and we dated from the age of 20-22 before getting married....and, we were not ready. Second wife, we've experienced the same tribulations (my mental health, etc.) but are growing more and more solid, 7 years later. I've never been the casual type...but I get it, trust...
