Serial Dating

Recently realized I'm been online dating for almost 10 years. Have had some significant relationships, made great friends, lovers, and met all kinds people I would never have been exposed to elsewhere. I either am able to judge character very well, or have just been lucky, because out of the multitude of men I've met, no one has been scary. The worse case scenario is meeting someone boring and I usually suspected that ahead of time, but figured they were nice guys I'd give them a chance. First impressions are usually correct.

Trolling the dating sites, checking out potential partners is hard to stop once it becomes a way of life. There are so many unexplored experiences out there for some of us it's hard not to think, even if you are with someone you like a lot, that maybe there is someone else.....and you keep looking. Will I know when to stop when the right one comes along? Will I be able to?

I made reference to a similar subject in my blog Triple Digits

Hmmm... Looks like we're a bit of a distance from each other... Right? Any other ideas? It's a grey day here, but I'm heading out for a walk by the lake... No way I'm spending the day indoors.. You have any plans?

Tresennui: STEP AWAY FROM THE COOKIE JAR

I think you know that happily ever after, soul mates, THE ONE, etc. are romantic notions, at best, and most likely remnants from a society in which co-habitation was a practical, economic choice. You were married for many years and know the realities all too well but it's an interesting question.

I also wonder if settling down might not be a good idea but a quick survey of friends, co-workers, acquaintances, celebs, etc. confirms that making it work is not easy and, for those who remain together, often a brutal, soul-sucking struggle. I think 2ofaKind has it right, though. If you can partner with someone who shares your perspective, then you just might be able to make a "serious" relationship work.

It's definitely a needle in a haystack but, in the meantime, I think you can have a lot of fun searching.

Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have.

The key is mutual understanding and mindset. That's what makes our situation work so well (hence name 2ofakind). Meeting here we already had a common ground and expanded on that. Having a committed, loving relationship knowing indeed you belong together and yet not inhibiting either ones sexuality, gives an incredible feeling of freedom and honesty.

You'll know when that right one comes along, but perhaps the key is it will find you - not the other way around. So in the meantime have fun...enjoy yourself and exploring those deepest corners of your sensuality. Try reading the "Ethical Slut"...it will open your eyes.
