wtf...you really believe this
I think there is far too much emphasis on the bond that is a relationship in this day to age.
I was told many a time that if you don't want to be getting married, then you shouldn't be in a relationship. I'm like WTF, where does that come from.
can't one enjoy's someone's company without an indefinite timeline being placed on it.
Ultimately, it's the notion that any relationship you enter, especially when you are older could potentially be your last, so people invest alot of their emotional time and effort into it.
and that's why i think people get hurt.
I never invest anything into a relationship or anything heavy because ultimately, I don't think i have longevity, i'm a short fuse persona that gets bored easily.
Saying this, when i venture into anything new, i make my claims perfectly clear so everyone knows where they are seated. Eyes can always wander but ultimately if temptation is placed before me, i'm either going to take it up or leave it be depending on how my relationship is at that time.
I live with nothing to lose and i don't date weak minded people who will fall apart without me. I'm not also the type to beat around the bush because i'm willing to take responsibility for my actions.
If the situation was reversed and my current partner was tempted by someone, i've made it perfectly clear they should go for them because potentially you never know what might happen, I'm not going to moan because they slept with someone else, it wouldn't even upset me if they wanted to be with them and end it with me or if they were two-timing me.
that's as i haven't lost anything and i've still enjoyed my time with them. I would expect the same from anyone i was dating and i make this perfectly clear at the beginning and throughout the relationship.
it's unorthodox but it kinda works...
I've never been one to believe love is the be all and end all of life and i'm not afraid of being single either. That's just me though.
two in the bush is potentially worth more than one in the hand.
