Is this a fair and common practice?
I was married when I was 23 years old, and dated a few years before that. Didn't have much dating experience. I divorced 3 years ago after 12 years of cold marriage, and got right into 2 serious relationships, which means I really didn't date around much. I am 38 and dating a 46 year old woman. She is wonderful and beautiful. I love her....and we want a future together.
My parents have been urging me to date around before I settle down. They don't want me to divorce again. I kinda took that a step further. I met two more women recently, and I'm dating them both. The 1st lady we had sex on our first date. She is really busy at work, so we only see each other once per week. The second lady we only kissed, and meet for dinner. She wants to have sex with me, but her roommate is always there. I don't know if I am officially "dating" them, but they seem to express their affection towards me quite openly. Including my existing serious relationship, I am basically involved with 3 women.
I have always believed there is no such thing as "cheating" before marriage. People have the right to date around. There is no need to inform the ladies that I am dating other people, because that just causes confusion. And no, I will not like it if my ladies were dating around. Yes it is a double standard, but I think society accept that.
My question is, have any of you date multiple people, and has it ever been successful? This is a serious question.
