mate, your in the wrong relationship if your preparing for when its over

I'm not preparing for when it's over mate, just that I like being able to talk to whomever I like, and I'm scared of losing that ability.

Learning to maintain social ability when in a relationship is healthy and to be encouraged.

Something I am wondering reading all of this... are you banging other chicks behind your girl's back or something?

Not really, most I've done is kiss, although there was one 'incident' with my ex about 3 months ago (I'd only been dating her for a couple of weeks).

I've been out with Dice a lot and I would have said he was on the pull quite tenaciously.

If you really mean you don't go on the pull and you're out to socialise then that's cool too but your actions imply otherwise.

Its something to think about.

And Ash, I think it all comes down to being honest without being crass, such as "Hey I see other people and expect you to do the same" versus "Hey look at all these bitches I fuck whilst you're thinking about me!" and understanding that because they're not committed to you, they will come and go. Which can be tough on a man's wee little heart. I'm no expert on the matter, or think I'm right, its how I'd like to think I'd go about it and from what I've seen with people around me.

Btw Dice, I'm not judging you or saying that you DO hit on girls, but its just the impression I always get.

Yeah I'm not denying that, I'm not denying anything. I only answered because I was asked. I'm not exactly proud of my actions, but at the end of the day there not that bad. And neither am I seeking approval or opinion, I'm working on my own mindset in my own time and at my own pace. Judge if you will, but I don't care a great deal.
