How many dates can you date before meeting the right one??? (by teazle007)
we obviously need to learn what we value in a partner and what we'd prefer to pass on. But to claim that there's some sort of magic number? We're not buying it.
First of all, why should there be a negative stigma surrounding having dated more than 12 people? What if you were dating around and had no idea what you wanted? It doesn't necessarily mean you've missed out on your one and only. The same goes for anyone in a loving relationship who has only dated one, two or even zero other people; why upset your couplehood with the question of "should I keep looking?" when you're otherwise happy?
Not to mention that people who tend to settle in or are looking for long-term relationships don't really have time to date 12 different people! That's a lot of people!

You posted this twice. None of what you said makes any sense. I dont think any # of dates is wrong. Saying 12 different people is a lot? Maybe 12 at one time. Anyway I dont really know how to respond because I don't really understand your point
@April666:sorry,but the title to the first one was'nt straight,so i decided to re phrase it,what i mean is that like should there a particular amount of people "not at a time" you can date before u meet the right person?Is dating up to 12 people not too much much before u can say u have made d right choice?simple!!!
@brats52005: what are u really looking for,is dating as many as possible a guarantee to meet d right person?i have to get this straight!!
Yeah, the exact number 53. That's the number all the experts agree on to find the person that's right for you! If you date number 54, or any less than 53, then your love life is over, FOREVER!!

I dont think it matter as long as you find the right person for you. I havent heard anyone that cared about how many people someone has dated. Past is past.
