Is Dating, Cheating?

article image placeholderUploaded by @FryedOreo
It sounds silly, but I think with this conversation, if it does occur, we will begin to see that maybe dating is something we all don't really agree upon as what it actually is. And I know we can go to Google and look at that definition, but we over time tend to give it our own definition to which Google will eventually change anyway, as it has done in the past

What does the tern *dating mean to you and should we update the term altogether? #dating #relationships

But early on, where you only had one or two dates with each person and you haven't had that talk, I don't think it's cheating at all. It's called dating for a reason. It's like, you know, practice for. I always say that dating is playing house to practice for real life. I don't know. That's just my. My little thing that I say, but, yeah, I don't think. I don't think it's cheating

And I guess to some degree, there is a certain aspect of me that does want to date, and I don't really know if I want to be committed right away. So with that being said, thank you for responding to this swell cast and keep on making good stuff

Communication is the key. Communication is the key. But I think in the beginning, it's okay to date more than one, you know, more than one person. I personally, in the beginning, when I was dating, I did that, but once I'm really liking somebody, I just kind of stop. It's, you know, even though I might not be totally sure, I will wait till I'm unsure. But that's just me

I've had a person like that before, and it gives me kind of, like, clingy vibes a bit. When they're trying to establish what we are and we're still in the talking phase, it's like, no, no, no, no. We talk about that after we've been on a couple of dates, after we have met each other in person

It's just I think some people, in this fast, fast paced dating climate you have nowadays, people are dating around and they feel they may have a special connection with someone, but then the two of them are still dating around, but they still feel like, you know, they put a claim on you, but you don't know it, you know, so they may accuse the other person of cheating, which doesn't make any sense because, again, both of them are still dating around

Oddly, I didn't factor that in to where you literally can go on a date and see the date that you just had and maybe animosity can ensue. No, I guess for my example, I'm talking about, like, more open communication, letting it be known that, hey, I'm single. So yes, I have been on some dates and et cetera, but I would like to go on a date with, you know, that sort of thing

The only thing between dating and cheating is the lie that you have to feed yourself to make it okay. I mean, so doing the others, that's as simple as it can get. Don't hurt anybody more than you want to be hurt. And that didn't come from a book. And I bet you I can't turn on the Internet anywhere in whatever is left of reality and find that message

And that can go out the way, you know, go out the way, go out the door. But no, it's not. And I think we have to redefine what dating actually is. It's dating a person. You're dating more people. And if someone get their feelings involved and think that you're their boyfriend and you don't have that conversation, then, like I said, morally you kind of like put that person in a bad predicament

Oh, something else that I want to give you both. I designed my cage that I was willing to take a stand. I know where I want to be, and I know what I want to have. And till I see the faces of the men that I felt protecting me, will is still mine. And I don't think I want anything more than the little boy that's lost his way and the man that found his way to come see me face to face

I am 142 different shades of around and find out. And there's nothing that can be given to me that wasn't already mine. So I don't know where I lie in that equation, because I'm just a little girl making problems way bigger than I'm supposed to have to carry. And I know what I've lost, so that must be what I was worth. And I love this song

I don't know if you guys are fighting your own spiritual wars. Do it on whatever battle side you need to choose. You just have to make a choice and be willing to stand up and fight and have the ammunition you need. And spiritual wars do not go on in physical planes. Oh, whoa. That was not anything to the three little boys still looking for dad. I'm sorry if it sounded that way

Um, it may be for her. It shattered that picturesque, usual story of a dating where, you know, you have to pretend like this is the only person on planet earth you're talking to. Because until we're official and exclusive, you're not the only person I'm talking to. It's just that simple. So in terms of a spiritual war, I feel like that's a different conversation

You just, you never know. That's the, that's the probability dice game you play when you go into dating. You don't know what the outcome will be. Even when you're in a relationship and you're married, you don't know. Exactly. Yeah. You may think due to your programming as a child and growing up in all these movies and tv shows and et cetera, what marriage is like that
