When is too soon to bring up the exclusivity conversation up?

[sammyamescoco]

I'm tired of situationship after situationship, but don't want to bite the bullet too soon! I'm also trying to figure out is there a point where it's past the time I can bring up 'the' conversation?

It depends on how things are going with the person you're seeing.  Are they frequently in contact? Are you frequently going on dates and doing nice things with them? Is it an unspoken rule that they give you prime date nights (and if they can't do one, they give you a reason) . 

If all the boxes above are ticked, then go ahead and make sure they are on the same page as you.  If it's not looking like this, and you've been doing whatever you do with them for a while, then don't even bother with the conversation.

If you want to avoid situationships, don't waste time with someone who isn't enthusiastic to meet up

The min they say "I'm not quite ready....." or they don't have that vibe, then you boot them to the curb. I suspect you give them time, space or play along and hope. Stop that. You think things are mutual, (interest, feelings) then sure make it official. If you fear of rejection, well then you just saved yourself from wasting time.

You had 3 or 4 good dates, it's time to address dating exclusivity and hiding your profiles if ever you met online. You'll see how it magically makes the time wasters disappear.
