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!

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!

If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.

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.

    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 :)

    I didn't know people actually did this. I don't think I would be able to trust someone if they couldn't devote a few weeks into making a decision as to whether or not to be "exclusive."

    Wow there is a huge double standard here. If a guy did the same thing a girl would be crushed to find out and he would immediately become a player. I had no idea this was passed among women as acceptable.

    its going great! my first one works out of town so i dont get t see him very often, and we made an agreement that he can do what he wants when hes on the road, and i can do what i want, so we both have a second partner. i care for them both very much and they both care for me, they know about eachother and there are no secrets between us. its not a double standard because we are both doing it, no one is getting hurt and theres no tention, so wheres the harm? i dont see it and neither do they, its a mutual decision between 3 adults. but reguardless, it cant work for people who arent willing to let it work, or for people who get jelous easily, but if you can, try it, whats the worst that could happen, everything that happens in life is a learning expierence

    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.
