I didn't date a lot. I had a handful of boyfriends but that's it. I kind of wish I had a bit more fun instead of being so serious all the time.

I didn't date a lot but I had a lot of boyfriends (like maybe 10?). I don't even know if I'd consider them all boyfriends. Some of them lasted only a few months.
-
Same! I had a bunch of boyfriends that I wasn't serious about.
-
1 boyfriend, dated a few guys, lots of blind dates (thanks, mom!)
-
I never really casually dated, attractions usually turned into relationships pretty quick.
-
Yep, I dated quite a bit. I look back fondly on those days, as I had a lot of fun and many adventures
-
No. I had a few longer-term relationships, and a few one-night stands/FWB in the interims. DH started out as the latter...
-
I sure did. I only had 3 serious boyfriends before my husband.

@meredithNYC: When people say things like this, it makes me wish I had more fun. Dating sounds so fun and happy when one isn't trying to be so serious.
-
Yeah. I did. *blush*
-
No. I had one other boyfriend and went in a handful of dates.

@Rubies: Well, it could be that I'm looking back through the rose-tinted glasses of nostalgia - lol. At the time, I felt like I would never have a "serious" boyfriend and I had the usual dating-related dramas -i.e., wondering whether the guy would call. But looking back I'm like, yeah, that was fun! I also was living in London from the ages of 22-26, so that made things more interesting, dating-wise.
But, I will say that I feel like most people do not enjoy dating. Most all of my friends absolutely hated the stress of it all. I guess it's not for everybody, and I do think it gets much harder the older you get.

Not very much, I had a couple serious boyfriends, a couple flings, and a couple in-betweens that never quite developed into real relationships. But I spent a lot of my time in college and afterward (prior to meeting DH) single and not really searching, I was too busy with other stuff.

@meredithNYC: Same.
I think part of the reason I was able to have fun dating and look back on it fondly is that I was in no rush to find "the one" and get married, and I don't think the ultimate purpose of a relationship or dating needs to be a serious relationship or marriage. If I felt like I needed to settle down and find the right one, or didn't think just dating was "enough", then it probably wouldn't have been as much fun!
