Do you give a person a second date if they tell you they are also dating other people?

Question

MiddleAgedClimbee · Accepted Answer

If I were part of the dating scene, it wouldn't go past the first date. I would always be wondering if I was the favored person or how the relationship might progress.

OfMiceandMen · Accepted Answer

Nope, the other person can have her. How well can someone get to know you if they are seeing someone else.

dynamicyandere · Answer

If I was single and in the dating scene, it would depend on how far they are going with these people.

If they’re just meeting up over coffee or a meal or a walk, and just trying to get to know them, then sure, whatever.

They’re just testing the waters, seeing what’s around and who’s around. No biggie.

But, if they’re sleeping with them outside of a committed long-term relationship?

No thank you. I believe that sex should wait until a relationship becomes exclusive.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

When I was dating, I was looking for a long term partner and not a casual relationship. If I was interested in the woman, I would ask about her intent in dating. If she, too, was looking for a long term partner, then I would proceed with dating her, but I would be cautious until it became clear that she was no longer dating anyone else.

Brainsbeforebeauty · Answer

Nope, they wouldn’t even get a first date… I mean if they already dating other people, why would they need to date me? I was taught to share, but I don’t share men🤷‍♀️

LaFemmeFatale_1 · Answer

No. I don’t even date such people

AviatorTom · Answer

If I was dating, sure, why not?

NathanDavis · Answer

I've done that before... they were hanging out with others, yes... so they were clear and upfront about that but, at/after the moment we went out, they didn't date anyone else for years to come

BoopBoopBeep · Answer

Of course. "Do you give them a second date" implies that we are on our first. I don't expect unyielding fealty by the end of the appetizers. Besides I'm not a hypocrite and I'm still dating other people at that point as well.

EmmaMary · Answer

@coachtanthony  I can only reiterate precisely what @brainsbeforebeauty has posted... She's absolutely spot on.

bolverk · Answer

No I would not continue to date a woman who is dating someone else, if I found out after the first date it would be the last date, this is my choice, she may do as she wishes, I do not need to date that badly.

Finfin1981 · Answer

Yes I would but only one or two more dates before I’d ask the question about what happens now and exclusivity

YesterdaysChild · Answer

Nope, I'm not very competitive. She can have him.

BarryLiverstone · Answer

Yes. The whole point in dating is to move towards a commitment. Wouldn’t expect exclusivity after one date.

Paris13 · Answer

Never Had That Happen But No, I would Lose Interest real quickly. xxoo

Anemone978 · Answer

Depends on the effort they put into me.. if it seems shallow and he is just out to get into peoples pants then nah.. that is how you get hurt or used..

Guanfei · Answer

No. I'm dating only one person at a time, from the first date. And only start looking after I'm sure it's over with the previous person.

TonyMetal___86 · Answer

Nope, i'm not going to be an option between other options 😏

Billlewis · Answer

Absolutely, and as many women know, I always try to get her to let me pay for her dates with the other guys she's planning on meeting, as well.

sparklycoconut · Answer

Yes because odds are I'm also dating multiple people. Even if I wasn't I still would see them again

aceleon · Answer

no i just hope their partners are aware and okay with it so i won't feel sorry for them.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Why would I expect someone I have just gone out with for the first time to have cleared her entire social calendar without even knowing if she likes me?

Kabluie · Answer

Absolutely yes, their relationship is between them and me.

magiusX26 · Answer

nope, and if they nention it during a date with me, they just ended that date too.

pickles77 · Answer

Nope I’m looking for a loving relationship not a competition. the whole point is to stop looking anyway.

Nikki1989 · Answer

Of course. Why wouldn't I?

colaman94 · Answer

Politely I'd let them down gently 😃

Lynn2001 · Answer

Idc what other people do but it’s not for me so I don’t need to date them

Slim57 · Answer

Probably not, I mean it's okay that they do but I definitely don't want to hear about it
