Let's say you're single and prefer to be in a committed relationship.

Now you have a couple of girls/guys that interest you, who have shown interest in you but you don't know how into you they are.

What do you do?

Do you put all your eggs in one basket and focus on the one you like the most?

Or do you "plant the seeds" = focus on both of them and see which one works out better?

Last thing you wanna do is to be left all alone....what do you do? ;)

Unless one of them has professed their undying love for you and you for them then I'd say don't put your eggs all in one basket. I know from personal experience that it can turn out pretty wrong. If you get tunnel vision you may be missing what the other person has to offer. Someone's opinion or feelings for you can change as suddenly as the weather (or vice versa). I've put all of my eggs in one basket 4 times and I paid the price all 4 times.

Being older now, 50, my advice is to explore. As with Intents above, I too have put it all in one baske four different times myself and I will be paying the price until the kids are paid for. Explore, explore, explore, have fun and when you get to be 35 or so, then you will have it all worked out of your system, maybe and be ready to put them in a basket.

You only put your eggs in that basket when you're certain they're just as into you. Otherwise, explore, explore, explore.

Dell's advice is astute.

"have fun and when you get to be 35 or so, then you will have it all worked out of your system, maybe and be ready to put them in a basket"

I'm thinking I didn't have enough fun before marriage.

Think I'm going to have scrabbled eggs.

To clarify ... the Easter Bunny puts all his eggs in one basket. He's got a big basket because there's a lot of children in the world. One year he even got a hernia and was laid up for 3 weeks. The irony of this is that rabbits have lots of sex. Male rabbits fuck every bunny pussy they come across, even the fat and ugly ones. Hell, in the rabbit world the fat ones are considered the most attractive. So you ask yourself, 'Why would the Easter Bunny put all his eggs in one basket, what kind of ridiculous logic is that?' Well Peter Rabbit explained it best when he said, "Oh baby, you like that. You like that girl? You like when I grab your ears? Yeah you like that. Tell me you like that big bunny cock, say it. Say it!"

Anyway, getting back on point - a wise bunny once asked, "What came first, the chicken or the egg?" Another bunny answered but nobody heard him because a large truck spattered him all over the highway (oddly enough at the same spot a chicken was killed a year earlier attempting to answer the question, 'why did the chicken cross the road?'). Moral of story, don't stop to answer questions while standing in middle of the fucking highway.

In closing, what does all this mean? It means you should follow your heart and not listen to the silly advice of a stranger.

Just for the sake of offering a slightly different take on this...

By keeping your options open, or not committing to one or the other, you could quite easily be left all alone.

You might miss out on the love of your life...

If she is the one, and the feeling is reciprocated, but you feel the need to try and keep more than relationship going at the same time, she could come to the conclusion that you're a bit of a t****er.

Just saying..
