I think dating and intimate relationships are two different things. What I would be willing to do for one I'm intimate with and one I'm dating are also two different things. The level of personal commitment is at issue. Now if I were to date again, and I'm not cause I'm married and happily so, I would be sure to know what the intended glimmer of my eye identified as, how that effected me and if we were compatible. Sometimes the heart wants what it wants, and we just have to learn how to live with a person we never would have given a second glance to.
I do however think that just flying by the seat of the pants is a risky and potentially hazardous way to live.
Then again I'm old enough to be secure and fairly immovable in my own way of being.
