Long term or short term relationship

Both are perfectly acceptable ways to be in the world. Short or long, both should be approached with sincerity and open honest communication so that both parties on board can get the most joy and enlightenment from the experience as possible. It’s all about learning and growing and become our greatest selves whether it’s just for one night or forever.wine

How about you? Are you in or out?
You are entitled to your own opinion thumbs up cheers

When it comes to a long-term relationship with a partner we ourselves chose, we can maintain the thrill of being in love, and deepen our feelings of passion and intimacy. However, to do this means avoiding certain behaviors, habits, and traps that couples commonly fall into the longer they stay together. Staying in love means taking the hard roadwine

I had a male friend who was in relationship fo more than 10 years, they were just a simple couple.
During the 1991 earthquake I was deployed to Red Crescent with my colleague from college and guess what my male friend ask me if who I was with in short need to introduced them both because we were team.
In a blink of an eye my male friend admitted that he was smitten by my colleague confused dunno I said to him you're almost engaged to your GF how can that be.
It's just happened very fast and they are now married for 20 years conversing

I think long term applies to some cases as well as short term. It's just depend on both if there is chemistry dunno cheers
Now your mixing apples and oranges.
To fall in love with someone else can happen, a major contributor divorces.
Happens all the time.

To chose however to enter a short term deal is something else.
It ain't for me, I want it to "last forever" each time.

By the way, Norway on top statistically of one night stands worldwide.
With that said: I'm willing to "try each other out" with the intent of everlasting.
If it works out well super! That was the goal.

Mixing apples and oranges looks good taste I guesslaugh but going to a relationship would be your choice and your partner... Anyone has it's way of eating the apple /orange cheers handshake
Have never been one to concern myself about relationships..I couldn't think of anything worse being on a dating site sifting through profiles sweating on being in a relationship..I as many have done joined cs for the forums..Unfortunately forums on all sites are attached to dating sites.

I have plenty of male friends who I cook for..Laugh with..Converse with..Dance with when we go out in a girls & guys group for the night or lunch during the day..Or other fun activities as a group..The only thing my male friends don't do is share my bed laugh

If I ever find myself in a relationship it will be by accident..When I go out for a girls night out or any other scenario I don't scan the streets or venues looking for Mr Right..If I ever find myself in a relationship I would prefer it to last a life time or close enough to a life time.
For me, it's always short term, whether I like it or do.

I call a lady a day or two after our date night and say, "Hello lovely (her name)"

She replies, "Who is this? Johnny? Luke? Richard? George? Sam?"

doh
I go for younger women, Stay with them for a while. Then I chase them away, but they come back some day and still manage a smile. Just takes a while Just takes a while. Jimmy Buffet why are you singing about my life. Now I am in Mexico but miss Thailand very much. As a Vaccine refuge, I have to go where I am wanted. Its okay in the Yucatan but I need a woman. So ladies, I am old but I'm happy. Now I am stealing Cat Stevens song. No shame at all. To live or die free.

You must me the heartthrob that most younger ladies are looking for conversing
Just practice safety measures I would say thumbs up Thanks for tge insight handshake wine
Hey Ysa, i think most people would start off with a short term relationship with aspirations of things leading to a life time relationship...
The short term part of the relationship is like a test drive, like test driving a car before you buy it / try before you.. then you make your mind up on the different points from your test drive..
Hey Bo
You have good perspective regarding handling relationshipdunno either ways can be fun but at the end of the day you are the captain of the ship wine handshake
Thank you.

My concern is this. It might be fun for a night.

What if you later find someone-- more so than anyone you met before -- you truly love?

What if, in all your adventures, you contracted something loathsome and permanent?

I try to stay clean so that my future wife can say yes, without also having to say yes to disease.

It's that simple.
Bo
I can relate on what you are trying to saythumbs up Think it's just fair to yourself to be just careful as you can be because one day in your time machine there is always "The One" for you wine take your time I guess handshake comfort
Butch
You have a point there as in before taking the long drive we need to warm up so as we'll be safe as we go along applause Hope that was sensedunno cheers teddybear
Hey Ysa, yeah we gota make sure our new/secondhand car is going to go the distance;;..
So the short term relationship should be thrashed, the limits pushed and the test drive is like; Drive it like you stole the dam thing and the police are chasing you..
Then if your car handles the thrashing, it may get you most of the way around the block of life..
Butch rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
I was thinking maybe you have that incident wherein you just take it FAST AND THE FURIOUS laugh peace teddybear
