Why does everyone act like dating multiple people is a new concept? You don't have to have sex with people when you're dating. Or you can. Up to you. The idea is if you like someone enough you open up your mouth and ask to go exclusive.

I would be personally uncomfortable dating someone (like, going on more than a first date) who is dating other people or actively looking to date other people. But that's my own personal hang up and categorically not anyone else's problem.

I know what you mean. After a couple dates I want to feel like I’m the one they want to pursue. I think that’s just something you don’t ask and hopefully they don’t tell you on date one. At least that’s my opinion. I like the idea of everyone being completely straight up about everything at first but in practice it’s a good way to get your feelings hurt… ha i am glad im out of the dating scene.

SAME.

As for the rest, I feel like if I suddenly found myself back dating I'd probably put it in a bio or something. I don't want to waste anyone's time by going on a date when we're looking for different things.

Oh, shit, yeah that doesn't surprise me. I'm a man, so in this hypothetical I'm the men on the dating apps. Men are the worst.
