I don't know how to casually date someone without falling in love. Let me explain. I've been on four dates in 12 years. Why, you ask? Each date became a long term relationship. I'm a professional serial monogamist. Well, I don't want to go down that road anymore. I'm focused on my career. I would like to go out on a couple of dates here and there and just have fun. Sounds simple enough right? Well, casual dating feels like I'm going against every fiber in my being! I have the mindset that when you go on a date with someone and if you like him, go on a second date, a third, a fourth, etc. And then move in together, right? I kid you not. That has been the story of my life. ************************************************************************ So, how does one date without falling in love, getting married, divorcing and never speaking to him again? How do I go on a casual date and suppress every natural instinct to become a relationship? It's so simple: Date men that I'm not physically attracted to. That's right. I'm going out with Trolls!
