Is it okay to date several people at the same time? Have you done it?
 
The notion of dating even one person at any point in time scares the hell out of me.
 
Well, I guess I'll never find out, then.
 
I know a friend who is poly but never have dated more than one at a time.
 
It wont be scary once you're actually doing it.

Seems unfair for someone to have multiple partners at the same time when some of us are stuck all alone, lol. I wouldn't do that, though, I'd want to dedicate my time to a relationship properly, can't do that with two relationships on the go.

If everyone involved is happy with it, then sure... but, I don't think it's something I could ever do.
I totally agree with your sentiment. As long as boundaries and consent are being recognized and respected then it is all good. All the power to them if it is what they are happy with.
How are they poly then?
I do note they corrected it in a later post. But someone could still be poly and never have dated more than one person at a time. It could simply be that they have not been able to find compatible partners who are themselves also poly. I myself would only date one person at a time but until I had my first relationship I would have had to say I had never dated anyone.
 
I have dated 3 people at once and it ended badly all around.. I wouldn't reccomend 0 out of 10.
 
I've only managed one date out of all 32 years of my life, I couldn't imagine dating multiple people at once. For the most part, even if nothing is yet serious, I'd rather stay committed to one person at a time. Dating multiple people would seem to just be asking for drama and hurt feelings, in my opinion.
 
No. Not really. That feels overwhelming lol
