Question
Find a Conversation

I've been seeing this guy for about 2 weeks and we've made it official and exclusive. We technically met through an online personal ad although we had the same class together last semester without knowing it and he knew who I was from seeing me perform. Anyhow, I still have my personal ads up and I continue to get responses from people. Most of them I am not interested in, but there are a couple of guys here and there I wouldn't mind getting to know. My question is, is it all right if I start talking to these guys while I'm exclusive with someone, even though I'm not dating these online guys but they might have the intention of wanting to get together as more than friends? I don't know what to think about this situation. Also, I'm pretty sure my new beau still has his profile up too and I'm sure he gets responses.
Thanks.

If you are exclusive, you should not have an ad posted, and you most certainly should not be responding to anyone!
Are you really giving this new relationship a fair chance if you're still chatting up potential dates (whether they say say or not, it's a personal ad, of course these guys are looking for dates-or sex)? Are you ready to be in a relationship? Do you feel that there's enough passion and interest and common ground for it to work between you and your new boyfriend? Why did you make it official after only two weeks? Really ponder WHY you are still in a dating mindframe even though you now have a boyfriend.
Once you know those answers, you'll either decide to talk to him about taking down profiles (after you've decided that's what you want to do) or that you aren't ready to choose a partner yet and continue dating. Either way, only do what is true to you.
Good luck and keep us posted.
