My friend introduced me to online dating and of course you are going to respond to a couple of people who send you messages, but are you suppose to wait and see what happens with one before you go out with another one. I met this guy this weekend at the movies and had a really great time, and we are still talking daily. We also plan on going out again this weekend. Here is the question, I was talking to another guy at the same time the first guy just asked me out first so would you go out with the other guy or just wait and see what happens with you and the first guy since the two of you hit it off, and had a great first outing that ended with a nice respectable kiss and I was home at decent time.
If you are going to be immature and write a judging comment on the online dating thing please don't respond to this question as though online dating just started.

I think you should stick with the guy that you went out with and see where that takes you if you truly hit it off. Especially if you think there is a chance that this guy could be right for you. On the other hand if you did not discuss whether or not you were exclusive so to say then perhaps you should talk to him and see where he stands on that then you will know exactly what it is that he is thinking and you won't get hurt if he is seeing someone else and you decided not to see this other guy because of the one that you already went out with. I think the best thing for you to do right now is ask him what he wants to do, is he planning on going out with anyone else? After all, if he turns out to be Mr Wonderful you don't want him to be hurt later down the road.

A bird in the hand is better than 2 in the bush. Ofcourse, a hand in the bush is better than the previous two ehehehhe. Sorry I couldn't help myself.
If things are going great with the guy you went on a date with why not keep going. I mean, why screw a a good thing up for something you don't know anything about. In the end is really all up to you. Do what makes you happy. You two only went on a date once so there is really no comitment as of yet so you are free to do what ever you want. If you are still curious then you can give it a try just to say you left no stone unturned. Meeting people online is a risky bussines so becarefull.

Online dating is no different than offline dating in this respect - it isn't a serious committed relationship or 'going steady' until it develops into that (over time).
There's absolutely nothing wrong with you going on a different date every night of the week if you want to. In fact, that's the beauty of online dating - you can go on so many dates you can afford to be picky.
It's actually healthy you date more than one person, make certain that you're not biasing yourself or choosing to quickly. This first guy you mention sounds like a good match... but is he the best match? You won't know till you've got a few others to compare him to.
So you don't have to feel guilty or like you're doing anything wrong. Chances are he's doing the same thing anyway.

Dating is just dating. Unless you have an agreement to be exclusive then feel free to date more than one guy. Once you start to have stronger feelings for someone and move into a deeper physical relationship then its time to call of the other dates. But if you just met this guy then dont worry about playing the field a bit. You might miss someone you are even more compatable with! Remember that in relationships at the beginning people tend to hide faults so others will like them so the first date may be awsome you dont know him well enough yet. Give it time and be honest with him about the fact that you are still dating others to so he doesnt get his feelings hurt.

Short and sweet - it's called online dating, not online auto-commitment. If you like the first guy enough to commit to him, then don't see the second one. But dating is supposed to be about meeting a lot of people and weighing your options.
Most people skip dating and go straight to a relationship, which limits them from dating a variety of people and finding out what they like and what they don't like. So go for it! Date a couple guys, have fun, and don't get hot and heavy until you know which one you like the best. Life is too short to date a guy who doesn't do it for you. You'll know which one is the best one, and make the right choice for everyone involved. Just be honest with them and with yourself, and everything will be fine.

As long as you aren't exclusive with one of them (and it doesn't sound like you are), you can go out with as many people as you like. However, you need to keep in mind that those you meet on an online dating site are doing the same thing.

i really yhink you should go on. why wait and let other girl find him? it's ok if you have someone else on the line while you going out with this guy. it's not like you're going to sleep with him,you just want to hang out with him and having a great time. so don't waste it. but when it is not ok with him,you can always find other. no string attached. that's all.

If you think this guy is what your looking for then give it a break . If not then go out with the other he may be even better for you .
