Dear Tee,
It was lovely reading you and seeing your perspective on my friend’s dating concept.
Yes, it sounds good. I can see where are you coming from. Skipping the romantic bit completely till marriage did sound a little bit strange to me too. I know that in some religious communities it is normal and even expected to date without any physical/romantic relationship but otherwise not sure. So I asked her to give me more details. She explained that the concept she is talking about is called rotational dating. And you can be romantic (kiss, hug etc. but no sex) with other people but you don’t have to.
“The concept of rotational dating, simply put, is the idea of dating more than one guy at the same time, till you have found that one man offers you the commitment you desire.”
You get to decide what that commitment looks like for you.
These are the connection-dates. It is meant to help the woman not to waste time on one person and later find out that he doesn’t even want relationship anymore and you lost time with him only and need to start all over again.
This approach may help women with the anxious or anxious/avoidant attachment style to get emotional to early.
What do you think Tee? Does it make more sense to you now? Would this concept help me to choose wisely and heal faster?
What’s the difference to date casually and in rotation?
Have a lovely weekend! 🌞
Warm greetings and big thanks for being the light in my darkness ✨️
