The concept in
dating of seeing other people is initiated for one of several reasons.
1. The
relationship is
new and neither party is yet
committed.
2. One party in the relationship, often the
guy, wants a
girlfriend but wants
concrete evidence that the relationship is not
serious.
3. One or both parties in the relationship remain
confused.
4. One party in the
couple wants to
get out but doesn't know how to do a non-gradual
breakup.
5. One or both parties in the relationship wants to
test the
limits of what is or is not
allowed.
6. The couple is not a couple. The couple is made up of two
selfish people to whom
sex is more important than
love.
