When you start dating someone, are you supposed to stop liking other people?

I really like a lot of people. If I dated one of them, would I have to stop liking the others? Like, I think that would be a deal breaker. I would still find myself attracted to other people and want to date them, I just wouldn't because I'd be in a relationship. Is that, like, normal? Is that okay?

    I find myself liking a lot of people too. My friends and workmates. However, I'm married 40 years this month and wouldn't wreck that for anything.

    If you're seeing someone exclusively then you shouldn't be seeing other people at the same time. However, there's nothing written that says you must choose one over the others. You can go out on a date with a friend tonight and go out tomorrow night with a different friend. Even if you and he/she kiss (or more) it's your choice. Only if you're in an exclusive relationship should you stop seeing others beyond simple friendships.

    I go camping with friends, go to movies and other things - when I'm away from home. My work sometimes takes me across the country for weeks or even months at a time. So I still maintain a social life, but my wife has exclusive rights toward my body and what I do with it (in a sexual regard). Otherwise, we're social people - all of us. Being with friends is great. And no one should ever think they should exclude others simply because of being "WITH" someone.

    If you've started dating someone then talk with them. Find out what they expect. Ask them the same question you ask us. Then LISTEN to what is said to you. If you need more help - post another question. We'll do what we can to help.

    Hope this helps.

    No you are always going to have feeling for others. But you are supposed to be loyal.

    PS. these h**s ain't loyal
