Is Dating Multiple People a Red Flag or a Normal Thing?
It turns out that dating more than one person initially is socially acceptable. Or is it?
I have been discussing dating experiences with my readers, and one of the comments I received seemed controversial to me. Apparently, several people believe it’s totally fine to date multiple partners until choosing to become exclusive with one of them. While in reality, this seems like a practical thing to do, I disagree that this is a good way to go about dating. You don’t have to agree with me, but I have a list of reasons why we shouldn’t behave this way.
One thing I seem to forget is that times have changed. Not that I’m super old, but I’m a millennial. Gen Z sees the world much differently, and people my age also have very different views. Sometimes, I feel like a Queen of controversial opinions; if someone asked me to describe myself in a few words, this would have been my response.
Looking for a mate is hard, tiring, and grueling. I get it. But seeing people as disposable and replaceable isn’t a good thing. Let me tell you why dating multiple people until you choose the best one is not a good idea.
