Tell me what you think

Once again I was seating around talking with a couple of friends the other night and my sista made and really odd comment...

She doesnt feel that she should be committed to anyone because they dont have a ring on her finger so until somebody steps up to the plate and really wants to make a real commitment she is still going to date other people beside her boyfriend..

Do you think thats a cool way to think nowadays, is this what most of us really feel deep down inside?

If you gonna keep dating around how do you expect anyone to take you serious enough to give you a ring?

but im saying after 3 years you should know if you wanna be with this person or not I mean nobody as time to date something for 5-6 years and but like ya know what I want something different peace!!!

That was alot of time wasted if you think about im just saying

I agree with you Easy .. I think its that committment in that one relationship that shows someone that you are serious about them .. I think if your sister goes along with her plan .. she just may not get what she is really looking for. I wouldn't waste my breath to say someone is my man if I got 2,3,4,5 other guys on the side.

She has the choice to do what she wants. However, once I know your dating other people.. you are no longer marriage material. Focus on me and only me.

Roshanda Pearl said...

What not marriage material!!!! I mean you aint doing nothing what ya want me to do just seat on the side line. whatever....

if someone feels that strongly about being married, there is nothing wrong with asking to be married. If the person balks or gives 'an unsatisfactory answer' then you got your answer. At that point you aren't dating around, you are dating someone else.

let me clear that statement up, when I say 'ask to be married' I am not necessarily saying the woman should propose to the man, but she can make it known in no uncertain terms that she is ready to be married to that man.

I think that you could date whoever you want as long as you and your partner have discussed your relationship. Meaning if your partner said he wants to have an open relationship then you get to do you. But if he/she expects you to be in a committed relationship you have to be with only that person. Its not cool to have somebody being 100% faithful to you while you out in the cut doing you.

Hold up Easy .. you may on to something ..

MEN: How do you feel being proposed to?

WOMEN:Would you ever propose marriage to a man?

I thought about proposing to a guy once STS but I dont think he was ready otherwise he would've asked so I didn't go through with it.

StS said...

Awww Knobles .. I applaud you for the thought. I think that if men and women put ourselves in each others roles more, we would understand each other much better .. If I were secure in a relationship I would propose .. but he wouldn't get a ring, I would just go pick out MY DREAM RING .. lol :-/

I agree with Easy...If you keep talking about you free until you get a ring well you probably won't ever get one!

Roshanda Pearl said...

I dont think I could propose to my man, I think im just old school when I think about the idea...

Dakim, women are not psychic. How can she possibly know whether you want to be exclusive. I agree with you sister's comment. All he is to her is a boyfriend. If they didn't have any conversation about commitments, why should she be with him and only him. He is seeing her and only her? She should keep her door slightly open. There is nothing wrong with her having other male friends. Now if she's having sex with all of them, that's something different. It doesnt make her be any less marriage material just because she talks to other ppl.
