Single again, dating multiple women…?
I went from relationship to relationship all through my 20s, and now I find myself dating multiple women at the same time. It would be wonderful to have so many different lovers, except for the fact that I feel guilty when my partners want a deeper commitment than I am willing to give them. I’m not polyamourous, and not afraid of commitment, I just haven’t fallen in love and I won’t commit to anyone I’m not in love with.
I’m honest with all the women I date about seeing multiple people and honest about my feelings. I know we’re all adults and if someone is getting hurt, it’s their responsibility to look after themselves, however, when one of my lovers feels hurt and unfulfilled because I refuse to make a commitment, I still feel downhearted that I am the root of her trouble.
Should I be compensating for her by breaking things off for her sake, or should I let her take care of herself while being open to communication?

People need to understand the concept of dating, dating is the get to know period. We take the opportunity to determine if we are interested in taking it further... becoming serious. When you are dating it means there are no committments. Same as At Will employment, your employment can terminate employment for any reason and whenever he feel it is neccessary. You do the same with dating. You are honest with these women, if they cannot handle it, then they need to find a man who is looking for the same thing they are. Those women allowed themselves to be in their situation because you gave them the opportunity to make that choice on their own by your honesty.
When you lie, it is like rape, the woman did not have the opportunity to decide if she wanted to be in the situation because she was not aware of the truth.

You are honest and up front with all these ladies. I feel it is there problem that they tend to find themselves falling for you and want more then you are ready to give. I would tell a lady once, when she asks or tells you she wants more from you, that you were very honest in the beginning and if she feels she can understand that then she should move on....
At least your being honest! Don't forget to always use protection!
