1. Realize It's Not Exclusive
The first and foremost rule that you should follow when you are dating two guys at once is that it should not be exclusive with either guy. You never want to promise one guy that you are going to be faithful to him, while you are dating another guy. Trust me ladies, it could end bad if you don't just admit that it is not exclusive, that you are just having fun!
2. Be Honest and up Front
Always, always, always ladies be honest and up front. You are just dating right? No need to lie about the fact that you are dating two guys at once! After all, you have to figure out which one you like the best and which one you actually want to start a relationship with!
Frequently asked questions
Honestly, as long as you're open and honest with everyone involved, it's your choice! Just make sure you're not leading anyone on or hiding things.
Communication is key. Be clear about where you stand with both guys. If you’re unsure about exclusive relationships, let them know. It’s all about mutual respect.
Yikes, that can be tricky! If they find out, be ready to explain why you’ve been seeing both of them. Honesty is the best policy to avoid unnecessary drama.
Planning and being organized can really help. Use a calendar or notes app to keep dates and plans sorted. Just make sure you’re balancing your time well.
It can! Sometimes, dating multiple people can help you understand what you truly want. Just be prepared for it to naturally progress with one of them, or neither.
3. Do You Favor One over the Other?
That brings us to our next point: which one do you like better? Which boy seems to work better with your personality? Which boy do you tend to get along with? Overall, you have to find the best match for you and dating two guys at once is a great way to do that – as long as you are up front!
4. Be Safe
While I am not saying that dating includes sex, sometimes it might and if you find that you are having sex with both guys (which may or may not be a good thing for you), you always want to be safe … and again be honest. You don't want to promise yourself to one guy while you might be doing another guy. Be careful ladies!
5. Feel the Chemistry
One thing that you need to do when you are dating two guys at once is to really feel the chemistry. Allowing yourself the time to just feel any and all of the chemistry that you can is a great way to be able to tell which guy is going to be the best boyfriend for you!
6. Have Open Lines of Communication
Whenever you are dating two guys at once, it is really important that you have very open lines of communication with each guy. You never want to hide things or have any secrets between the three of you, it could be bad all around!
7. Don't Get Serious with Both
Ladies, when you are dating two guys at once, it is really important that you do not get serious with both of them – that would be dishonest. If you are finding that you are having extremely strong feelings for one over the other, you need to end the second relationship ladies.
8. Be Ready to Choose
Finally, the last tip that we are going to explore when you are dating two guys at once is you have to be ready to choose between the two of them. You can't very well keep dating both of them if you do happen to have more feelings for one.
Remember, playing the field a little bit is never going to hurt anyone, as long as you are up front and honest. So ladies, have you ever dated two guys at once? How did it turn out? Spill!
***
Dating two guys at once can be a tricky situation to navigate, and it can also be a lot of fun. It can be a great way to explore your options and find out what you really want in a partner. However, it's important to remember that you have to be honest with both guys and yourself throughout the process.
When you're dating two guys at once, make sure to keep communication open and be clear about your intentions. You should also be sure to set boundaries and be honest with each of them about what you're looking for. Be sure to be respectful of their feelings and take things slow.
It's also important to remember that you have to be prepared to make a decision at some point. While it's fine to explore your options, you shouldn't string either of them along if you know that you're not interested in either of them. Be honest with yourself and with them and be ready to choose between the two of them if you have stronger feelings for one.

Jaycie-Leigh: I agree Britten!
Noor: Lets face the fact you will always have to date more than one guy in order to know who is mr right. Dating guys does not mean that you are in a relationship with him. Nothing is official! Lets bare in mind that guys are doing the same :) its human nature . Once everything starts getting a bit serious you would have already taken the decision to date one guy only :)
Britten: I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but the way I was raised, dating two people is NOT okay... you should only have love for one person and one person only... and those people should feel the same way.. just my opinion. not judging anyone, just putting it out there. but I do respect the articles on here.(:
Susan: Once when I was young I had a "harem." Five guys who all knew about each other and were fine with just having fun. I learned a lot about guys in general and about myself and eventually when I found myself falling in love I broke it off with the other four and ended up getting married. I never mislead anyone or kicked anybody to the curb and have no regrets, and we're all still friends.
