What does dating mean to you? It sounds like such a simple question but yet we seem to make it difficult. Some people look at dating as having a variety of different relationships with no real expectations. Keeping things light and no real boundaries. Probably in the urban community dating is almost exclusively one on one until  recent years. Of course there’s some exceptions but on the whole we don’t openly casual date. Maybe that’s the problem with urban relationships. We don’t think outside the box when it comes to relationships. Maybe if more people would date a variety of people casually it would take some of the pressure off. Maybe it would give you a real good look at the person for who they are and not what they can provide  for you. I know for me with the dating nightmares I put myself in I could probably benefit from slowing down and dating casual. Dating doesn’t mean your sleeping around either. Just getting to know each other with zero expectations and if things happen we handle it as adults.No matter what side of the fence your on when it comes to dating just make sure your honest to eachother about what you want from eachother. Sounds simply enough right? RIGHT! So….What is dating to you?
