I have ever posted the same thread long time ago, however with lot of new CS members, I am curious what the perception of the guy or lady you (seriously or exclusively) date and he / she still has an active profile in a dating site.

It happened that a friend of mine complained that her boyfriend's profile was always online although they already moved into exclusive relationship. Wrongly she blasted him several time and accused him not to be serious on the relationship and "breached the trust". The end of the story: they broke up.

Is it a must that somebody who found his / her partner, has to automatically close the account, even it is only for fun?

Well, it depends on what the profile says. If the profile is clear that the person is only online to post and states that he/she is in a relationship then I suppose it's alright. BUT if it's a profile saying: looking for LTR or similar, then I'd think he/she is out looking... heck.. it doesn't get more obvious than that.

Totally agree with you on that one...my ex came up with rather lame excuses as to why his profile was still online...hence why he is now the ex

I was in this situation in the past and the two of us agreed to remove our profiles. Main reason was that we spent so much time talking together each day, we had no inclination to post on CS.

Having said this, there are people here who are in an exclusive relationship with each other(both CS'rs), who have obviously discussed the reasons for staying on here. Leave or stay, it needs to discussed and both parties come to an acceptable agreement. It should never be a trust issue. If you don't trust each other, you have nothing.

Because some people are on here for friendships, and a profile is a good way to say what your interests are, the type of person you are, things you may have in common.

I would have a difficult time with it just to honest. I would delete my account if I was in a relationship, and would expect the same. If something is going in real life there is no reason to be on a dating site. Obviously not everyone will feel this way, but I would have to find someone who shares my opinion on this.

its all a matter of showing respect for your partner. when one keeps his profile no matter what it says, in all acuality they are still on the market. I have cought my ex like this and divorced him two weeks later he married a girl he met when we where married. so deleat that profile no reason to keep it.

I would say he wasnt serious about the relation if he wa he would close his account n spend time with her not on this site. N i would expect to do the same form her. Relationship is all about trust if u break the trust then its over. Good on her

well when all is said & done - I would not agree to remove my account unless I was in a committed relationship though

but if that were the case I 'd prefer we both remove them and agree on that

if someone I was dating casually has a problem with me being on here - I mean, I'd talk to him about that but basically say - "Oh well."

i still have my profile up, although it states that i am no longer looking. and it's not because i'm holding out for a better offer, it doesn't get any better than the person i have met.
having said that, i have several friends on cs, as well i have met several artists through cs...so i've left it up.

Its not problem. If you are honestly and faithful with your true love had just found out, so the profile online or not online doesn't matter.

Ive found my true love here on C.S and we both still have our profiles here.It clearly states were in a relationship and only here to stay in touch with friends,visit the forums etc.
I would find it difficult to leave as ive met some wonderful people here.
I dont see anything wrong with leaving our profiles up,after all,the people that truly are friends here know all about our relationship.teddybear

My boyfriend has his profile still online, I closed mine off before I even started dating him, and then I rejoined 4 or 5 months later... As far as I know, my boyfriend hasn't updated his details to say he is with someone, whereas mine does.... each to their own... it doesn't bother me - he knows what I am up to if he wants to gander through the threads and posts that I have put my two pence into ... and the last time I looked my boyfriend hadn't posted anything since 2011....and the only reason I know that is because he responded to something I had posted last year... prior to that, he hadn't posted since 2009...

It wouldn't be acceptable! When/if someone is totally into you and has strong feelings for you they take your thoughts and feelings into consideration. It's blatant disrespect to still be trolling the dating sites putting yourself out there to meet others when you are in the supposed committed phase with someone else.

I have to completely agree with Texas here. It's disrespectful. A relationship is based on trust and if he is on a site, it would indicate he is still open to a 'better deal'.

the bottom line is that we cannot control the personal lives of others - if a man is going to cheat he will cheat whether it's online or elsewhere - I'd say be happy he's posting out in the open & not trying to hide anything

If am in an exclusive relationship with a man I respect him, therefore I wouldnt be on a dating site ad I wouldnt like him to be in one either, I guess that is something that can be agreed as a couple, if one is still on a dating can make me think he is not satisfied with me and probably I am not gonna break up with him just like that but at least he will listen some of my questions about it and depending on the answers I will decide if it is worth it to go on with him or not-
