Date or Dump: Are we Exclusive?
It’s time for another DATE OR DUMP! Readers submit their wooing woes and we ask you, the (lovely and talented!)Dating Support Network, to tell them what to do: Date? or Dump? Today: Are we exclusive? Heartbroken in Hoboken writes:
I met this guy online about two months ago (I’m 28, he’s 31). We’ve gone out on five dates, which have all been fantastic. He’s smart, successful, and always treats me like a gentleman. I think I’ve really started to fall for this guy. I took my online profile down last week an we slept together for the first time a few days ago. He called me the day after, which is always a relief. I thought he might be falling for me, too. But I just happened to see him on what looked like a date with another woman last night. I also checked the website and saw that he’s still active. I know it hasn’t been that long and we haven’t had any talk about being exclusive, but I feel completely heartbroken. I feel like I can’t trust him. Should I nip it in the bud and let him go?
Well DSN? Is he a cheater? Is she jumping to conclusions? Expecting too much, too soon? Vote Date or Dump below and share your comments on why this is or isn’t meant to be.
If you guys haven’t discussed your relationship status he really hasn’t done anything wrong. The guy isn’t a psychic (is he?). Try talking to him about your desire to be exclusive. If you still aren’t on the same page, dump him then, but don’t rush to any conclusions without talking about them with him first.

She’s totally jumping to conclusions. Nothing has been discussed, you’ve only been on 5 dates! If you want to be exclusive, you should say so. Don’t start a relationship expecting guys to guess what you want. Wrong already!
