Sometimes I do
other times it doesn't matter just not that into them.

Day to day life, but make sure it is within their interests if you plan on keeping them around. Perhaps I didn't do so much with you, which is why there are no replies. See? It is easy.

you think?
remember now...you're just starting to talk online but there is interest.
If I was on a date in real life I wouldnt call the guy the next day and start discussing a date I have with a different guy.

if nothing is carved in stone then dont worry about it. when you become a couple and date steadily then i think itd be wrong to go on a date with another guy. look at it as job interviews. once you find the right job you dont need to have anymore interviews.

Ooh, very good question. Because this comes up often.
If a guy asks me if i'm currently dating other people, I'll tell him yes or no, depending.
And I'll ask him if he is.
But what I'll NEVER figure out is a scenario like this:
Me: So did you have a nice weekend?
Him: Oh, yes, I went out with this fine lady. I mean, she was hot! We had a really good time, went out dancing and ..blah blah blah.."
Now, is it just me, or does anyone else think that it's WEIRD, if not RUDE, to be discussing dates with a woman you purport to have an interest in?

im just me, i can like them at first then get bored and move on, or i can beat myself and tell myself that hey i have to like the person. So i am honest, or at least try to be.

Make them aware you are dating.....not something you want to find out way down the line

Exactly my point!!!!!
Maybe not even to that extreme. WHy even casually mention it?? If I tell a guy I'm talking to that I had a date....it probably means I have no romantic interest in him at all.

I think SHeila is the only one getting the question here....
I don't mean letting them know you are "dating" but that you went ON a date....
so you're talking to a guy/girl online that you like and they ask how was your weekend...you would answer....it was GREAT. I had an awesome date?!?! How would you feel if he/she said that to you?

I'm a completely open book.
Some women have suggested to me that I'm too open and that it takes away the 'mystery'
All I can say is that they must be used to dating some pretty shallow men because even though I'm an open book it's a never-ending story and there's a new mystery on ever page of the book.

Detail is not needed but the idea that he/she is not the only one does need to be addressed. When you meet someone that you are interested in whether it is two days or two months it hurts just the same to find out that the feelings you were sharing with them, they were sharing with someone else.
Really it is curtisy to let them know that you are not looking for an exclusive relationship. If you are dating more than one person or dating one and talking to another that has romantic intention then you are not looking for long term or exclusiveness.
This is, in my mind, considered a game.

sure, why not tell them, If your serious on the internet? I mean how many ppl do we actually think it could work out with on the internet?

I agree, but when time and energy, phone calls into the night, planning visits, online for hours........is expended in what appears to be a genuine way, and there are others, dates, people that you are interested in, don't they have a right to know? A right to honesty?
people get hurt.

I think it goes back to what NFowler said.....and what Ive already said...
if I hear that, I figure you're not interested in me. It has absolutly nothing to do with jealousy. I dont care if the person is DATING....but if you start telling me about dates you're going on...that feels more like a conversation you want with a friend not a potential romantic interest.

Now how open are you about dating other people. Do you tell them (even if they dont ask) that you had a date?
Just how open do you need to be?
