i got asked out at one time by three different guys and accepted them all. after three weeks, i was able to weed the two bad guys out and settle on one. i'm not sure whether dating multiple guys is bad or not - it depends on what you want in your life.

Dating is fun and until you really find someone you like and have that za-za-zoo I think it's fine to date multiple people. Of course be very careful not to call one by another one's name.

I THINK ITS A G00D IDEA, AS L0NG AS Y0U D0NT HAVE S** WITH THEM.

Dating is really fun but you need to lay down the rules for certain fellas because some may get in too deep and you don't want to hurt them!

Ummm...no. Not ok with me. I wouldn't want to be swapping spit or other bodily fluids with multiple guys. That's disgusting.

It depends on how you define 'dating'. I think it is okay as long as you have not gotten intimate.

absolutely not.

Men do it, why not? I would be personally uncomfortable with having sex with multiple men, but I would date more than one. Women always put all their eggs in one basket, and it usually ends with a woman alone and some broken eggs. I think it's better to say cool and detached until you get to know a guy better.

dating more than one guy is fine. having sex with more than one guy is sleazy and stupid.

i joke with my friends to always have a backup. oftentimes women assume because a guy takes us out on a date that he is into us and wants a relationship. whereas the guy will be dating several women and just looking for a good time. it is a good way to get to know people, and weed out the guys who are not up to your standards.

i usually date one guy that i like the best, but i keep other guys at a close distance, (just in case it doesn't work out & in the early stages of dating). If i am in a relationship, obviously, i will not have a back-up.

Dating around is super fun! I would say go for it

Bad idea. It didn't work for me.

if you want to go out and aren't in a relationship why not date more than one person? if it's early in the dating you're still getting to know the other person and don't know how you feel.

i only had an "awkward" situation with this once. i had started dating 2 guys w/i a week of each other. first once a week, then twice a week. at about the 2 1/2 month point i went out to dinner with one of the guys and the other guy was there with his dad; only 1 table in between us.

the next day he called me and we agreed that the night before was a horribly uncomfortable situation and we didn't want to date any one else. so i guess that worked out okay

Dating is great. You just have to know your boundries

Men do it all the time.

And for me, the word "dating" means going out on dates (dinner, movies, dancing, museums, etc), not having sex. I only have sex with boyfriends... men I'm in a committed relationship with. So, yes, I will "date" many different guys. You are supposed to be dating to find out what qualities you do and do not like. How are you to know how many wonderfully different men there are there if you limit yourself to just one?

Now, IMHO, once you start having sex and/or have 'the talk' about the nature of your relationship, then you should stay with just one guy.

I think definitely, date around! I personally wouldn't sleep with more than one guy at a time but I'd definitely date multiple guys. I'm in a relationship now so it's not an option, but if it were I'd do it for sure.

I agree with most people on here - dating multiple people is okay - but not having sex with multiple people.

I personally think that some are being rather prude on here. It's okay for men to sleep around and be "players" but when women do it, it's being a hoe. Women have to get rid of that double standard because we do it to ourselves. If you are a single and a RESPNONSIBLE adult, you can do what you want. Sleeping with several men doesn't make you a hoe, rather just someone who is having fun and playing the field..that is not a bad thing!!

I think that it's fine as long as your not intimate with any of them, that tends to make things a little more serious.

It's not respectful!

I think Its better to focus on one person at a time u never know what might happen

Opps, I meant to say responsible.

I TOTALLY agree w/kendalheart (smile). I'm a "serial dater" which I use as an excuse for being a commitment-phobe in the worst of ways. I have a tendency to date multiple men at the same time, and as long as everyone knows that I'm exclusive to no one and practice safe sex, who am I hurting? All parties know of the situation from the start.

For me personally, dating multiple guys at the same time is fine, but having sex with multiple guys at the same time is not. But I do agree with valova that if everyone is aware of what's going on and they're fine with it, then do whatever you want. As long as you're cool with it, who cares what anyone else thinks?

bad idea. i don't do it and i don't really know anybody that does do it.

DATING- Multiple people is ok. It's just like going out and looking for a job. Your interviewing to see who has more to offer and what benefits are included.
SEX- Should be reserved. Respect your body and make a guy earn your temple of gold.
Sex tends to cloud judgement, wait to see if your compatible with a guy first.
That takes at least 90 days. Make a guy work for your attention. Guys like the challenge it's like sports for them.

as long as it's casual and anyone you're seeing knows that it's casual, there's no need to feel bad!

for me-i can barely get one date, let alone multiple dates.

I think dating multiple people is great. Actually I was just reading an article about how to do that successfully - you can read it here:
