I agree, playing the field works to help in finding that right person. And i also agree that dating one person can take up all of ones time in that your trying to do everything to make things work. Seems i'm lacking the energy to do even that these days, work is kiling me LOL
Lately i haven't had the opportunity to be picky. Theres a few guys i've known for a while who are interested, but not in long term marriage/kids type of stuff, just the every now and then when i need you type. Talk about annoying!!!
Now i would have been married with kids if my fiance hadn't thought the grass was greener on the other side of the fence. His choice resulted in a 4 year relationship ending. Again his choice so when he returned on his knees, i wasn't jumping for joy. I've learned that i can't rely 100% on anyone but myself and i think i'm scared to date. I don't want to be left with a mortgage and kids to look after when he feels the need to venture out.
I know not all people are like that and i'm not saying i'm judging every man now because of him, i'm just not in a financial position to be able to take a chance on being left high and dry.
And your right, seeing as i've been picky and not willing to let everyone in i've lost out on a few really good men. Unfortunetly i did realize it sooner than later.
I want a LTR, i want a husband and children but i hate the fact that i will have to do the dating thing, bouncing from man to man in order to find Mr. Right. At least i'm older, more mature, understand exactly it is i'm looking for. That should make it easier right?
