How soon is too soon to bring up the "we should both stop dating other people" conversation???? Don't want to scare him off but want to see where it can go. Or should I wait till he brings it up???

Really, you both need to feel on the same page when this comes up in my opinion. Another way you could phrase it, is that when you're ready to exclusively see him to say to him "I've decided I'm not going to see anybody else except you." And simply leave it at that. If he feels the same way about you, then chance are he'll say the same soon also - if not right away. Let it be his choice. Then based on his choice, you can make a better decision as to whether or not you'd like to remain exclusive to him or not. By bringing it up too soon, you can certainly scare him away, because by you suggesting it, it almost makes you sound territorial. Good luck! I hope it all works out for you!

I suggest you wait until he gives you a promise ring.
You don't have to stop dating other people to see where this will go. I think it will become more clear to both of you that this is the relationship you want to make permanent if you hold open the option of dating other people and end up not doing it because the other guys aren't worthy of time spent away from him.

After 4 or 5 dates if it looks like the 2 of you are both in for the long haul.

It shouldn't be a topic of discussion. If he feels for you what you feel for him then he will stop dating other women and focus all his attention on you. If this is a slow relationship he may not be at that level yet. If you are then it's ok for you to do so. Ask him if he still is...make sure he understands that there is no pressure to stop if he is, you are just wondering.

I would wait until he brings it up. If he is constantly looking at other females while the two of you are out in public call him on it. If he overreacts, move on.

After having sex 5 times or 2 months, whichever comes first!

If you have to bring it up then he clearly is not responding to you as all comsumingly as you think you deserve. Why bring it up at all? This leaves your options open too!

shouldn't have to have the conversation. If you are dating a guy who needs you to spell it out...then he'll cheat. We know just like women do when we are ready to see something through.
Those conversations are adolescent anyways. besides, "I didn't know we were exclusive" doesn't ever win that fight does it?
