Aquas, how do you feel about casual dating vs...

...dating exclusively? Do you like to casually date more than one person before becoming exclusive/official with one?

I'll casually date more than one person until one of them appeals to me enough to offer exclusivity to them.

You make an ass out of yourself when you assume? So why did you assume I sleep with men I casually date? Let's hear it, fraudaqua. Lol

Usually just exclusive. My brain is limited to liking only one person at a time. *shrugs*

Casual friendship/courting bf/gf stage but not casual dating. I'm a bit of a struggle to finalize a relationship. I like my partner being my best friend a bond like no other, but no titles please unless you need them. I normally don't like jumping in relationships, and I move slower than them so I don't offer exclusiveness right away.

Lol @ fradaqua.

If no one has really gotten my full undivided attention or has sparked an interest that I feel could lead to something long term then I'm not really one to put all my eggs in 1 basket

I have decided before to be exclusive with a guy even though we hadn't technically agreed to it, but that's b/c I liked him a lot. I didn't tell him at the time that I'd put all my eggs in his basket though. It was just something I naturally did, but the key to that was in me having to have a humungous interest in him that I felt was mutual.

I'm not really 1 for casual dating intentions though, if that makes sense. I've never been one to jump from 1 person to another OR to find enjoyment in juggling multiple folks just for the hell of it. Before I was married, I used dating as a crutch to find compatibility strong enough for something long term

If I felt like I wasn't getting any good matches, I'd take a break, reflect, try to figure out what I was doing wrong & only jump back into the dating arena once I believed that I'd figured things out.
