Just a little missive:

 

I see lots of threads about people being in a relationship, but their partner has an active profile up on a dating site. THIS IS NOT OK!

 

I don't care what the excuses are, this is common sense!

 

Maybe "modern technologies" has changed the landscape of dating, but this one is pretty obvious. You have a gf/bf? You don't advertise yourself on a dating site.

I agree. Unfortunately too many people:

 

a) Assume it's a RL when it's not. Like they'll be on 3-5 dates, pushed him/her into bed on date 2 or 3, and then get angry that he/she hasn't taken down their profile or is even talking to others.

 

Did you have the serious talk about where things stand and where are they going? No? Then don't get angry because you assumed too much.

 

 

b) Did agree to the RL, but they still want to "keep options open" and will coldly dump someone if a BBD comes along. That's just childish and low.

3-5 dates is excusable. I'm talking about a relationships that has been going on for awhile!

+1.

 

As well, women, here's a tip: men often have profiles on different dating profiles. My BF took down his profile right away on the site where we met, but I discovered a profile on a different site a few months after we were exclusive. He wasn't using that profile; he'd not logged on recently... but it was still up. Until I pointed it out to him.

 

First I was :eek::mad:

Then he was :confused::o

Then he took it down and I was :cool::)
