    I know every situation is different, but...how long would you consider dating someone before you became "exclusive" with them?

    What was the fewest amount of dates you went out on with one person before you became exclusive?

    What was the most?

    Would any of you quit dating someone if they don't become exclusive after a certain amount of dates?

    me and dario became exclusive the day we met, and we've been together almost two years. i'd say that's the least amount of dates before we became exclusive :) haha!

    the most? i don't know, i didn't really keep track with any of my other relationships. i guess they weren't all that meaningful to me...

    I've had a few girlfriends, including my last where it was exclusive from the very start - others after as many as say five dates. Generally speaking, I won't sleep with a girl unless I have a desire for an exclusive relationship with her. The only time this wasn't the case was several years ago when I got back together with an ex. I was still in love with her, she was no longer in love with me and she wished to see other people. I gave it a whirl for about a month, then gave up having grown tired of being her 'part time' lover as I recalled saying to her when I said no more.

    I suppose a lot of it has to do with age and experience...

    3 dates. i usually go out once and end up being swept of my feet and in a relationship though. i don't like dating multiple guys at the same time it feels like im cheating even if a commitment hasn't been made.

    If I am dating at all, its with one person, back in my younger years I would sort of wake up here or there, but that wasn't dating.

    I never really understood actually dating more than one person at once.

    I think right now in my life it would take alot of time for me to want to be with someone exclusively. I have always been one to jump into a relationship quick and it never works out. Somebody always ends up gettin hurt. Its like Marley said "easy skanky, skanking it slow"!

    exactly i feel bad like im using someone. There's girls at work who like to see how many diiferent guys they can get to buy them dinner...i think it's immoral and if you have that much of a financial issue that you have to get men to buy you dinner than you need to refocus your priorities towards financial independence. I'm all for presents and being traeted special but focusing a relationship on how many guys you can swindle is disgusting.

    i like to screw up one thing at a time, myself. so i dont get seeing multiple people either. i have had problems in the past liking more than one girl and then losing them both.
