    Hello :)

    Hope everyone is enjoying the good weather! Right so I suppose I better get on with it ;) I broke up with my long term girlfriend last year and am now just about over her. We actually get on great as friends and work together without any awkwardness whatsoever. She is actually meeting a guy and I can honestly say as far as I can tell am totally cool with it.

    Anyways since the break up I've done the whole random snogging/dating thing along with the odd fling. I was meeting two lovely girls but at the time I was still pretty much pinning after my ex so neither relationship has a chance into developing more than just "fun"

    A while ago I decided to give the world of online dating a go. Initially I set it up just to see what it was about but found some really cool, interesting people on it. Now I've been on a few dates but up until recently I didn't really feel anything with them although have to say the dates were great fun! Now though I've had a date with one girl, who I really clicked with. She is very pretty, smart and funny. Just had the one date so far but have plans for another early next week. The thing is I am also now currently texting another girl from the same dating site who I also seem to get on really well with. Personality wise I click with her and looks wise she would also be my time.

    My question is would it be bad form to have a date with her too and then after that pick which one I get on with more ( assuming both would be interested in me ) Is that online dating etiquette? Is that acceptable behaviour? I'm new to this sort of world so genuinely haven't a notion.

    Thanks very much for your help :)

    J.

    Yeah I don't see an issue. You've only had one date with this other girl so god knows what could happen there. I'd be keeping your options open and nobody would expect you to be exclusive after one date, IMO. Enjoy :)

    Generally this is the done thing with online dating. Chances are that the girls are doing it too.

    Online dating is still just plain old dating at the end of the day.

    The girls you are going on first dates with are more then likely chatting to a few other guys and may have other dates lined up that week. At such early stages in courting its pretty much all fair game, until the "talk" happens somewhere down the line and exclusivity and entering a relationship is discussed.

    So work away with a perfectly clean conscience my friend.
