Anyone else here a "serially monogamous" person?

Getting around has never been my thing.

My goal has always been relationship > flings.

Depended on the stage of my life. I was never s man whore and I've always believed in being faithful. When I was really young I always wanted a marriage and family. Just never found the one and that's something you need to be damn sure of before diving in. As I got older entering my 30s I wanted to date around as much as possible cause those years are soon to be over and your looks don't last forever . When I found someone I felt was the one to have a kid with I was faithful and loyal but as is the case with most women they can't do the same and loyalty to family/unit is the last thing on their important to do list.

I would say when you consider stds and the chances of having a child and not being married and having a real family to raise your kid/kids in. I'd tell you find one good chic you get a long with and enjoy her company and try and make it work. If you feel an urge to cheat and act on it I'd say break up with her.afterwards if not before. Life is too short to live a lie and what goes around comes around. Nothing cool or alpha in lies and betrayal and cheating and playing with someone's emotions and feelings.

If a person can't understand these simple concepts to being a good person than they are either mentally disturbed or just an all around POS.

I wouldn’t say serial monogamous because I’m ok being single if I’m not with the right person, but I much prefer a relationship than a one night stand.

Sex without love is pretty meaningless imo so chasing one night stands is kinda pointless to me.


But when I think of a “serial monogamist” I think of a person who HAS to be in a relationship because they can’t handle being single and will be in a relationship even if it’s a bad one just to avoid being alone. That’s not me

This!

Part of it anyways. I don't think you have to be in love to have sex. I think when you are in love it's better but thays a different type of sex. Sometimes you just don't for the fun but when you love someone it's s special feeling. But those times come along very rarely
I would choose to be alone any day compared to being with someone you don't like or don't have fun with or dont want to share time with. That's a total waste of life

Me. Only relationships of fwb long term basically.

LOL if you think I'm just sleeping with these random crazy hoes that probably have std's and are used bait for a night.

I am a monogamous person. When I'm with someone/in a relationship, I have no interest in other men.

Married now. but even then i don't have the patience to be trying to talk to multiple girls. like very early 20s its easier because more girls are "living their best lives"

A perfect situation for me would be monogamy with the occasional option of banging new pussy. Like one new girl a year as a one off. But 99% of the time I’d rather be with my woman.

That is unequivocally incorrect.
I dated the hottest girls in my class when I was in 8-12th grade. Would have legit rejected a sub 8/10 non-white girl if I were in grade school. I was dating 10/10 blonde bombshells like nothing.

Me too. Being in a relationship for me takes too much focus, too much from my brain that other women can't even be on a radar for me. Or men, for that matter. Not so much that my relationships are high maintenance but I have little resources for that **** in the first place, lol....

Been in LTR's my whole life, I had some fun in my mid/late twenties but ultimately I didn't see much gain from it the way I saw actual relationships.
