Online Dating--meeting more than one person for the first time?

I have run into a possible dilemma. I joined online matching, and all of a sudden I find myself making plans with three people to either meet personally or speak on the phone. What I want to know is, when doing this kind of thing, is it really wrong to be meeting more than one person within a few days from each other, for the first time as friends, even though there's "dating" going on? To me, just meeting as friends and getting to know each other isn't the same as seeing each other exclusively after we have fallen in love...in that case my answer is clear as day. But for now, does anyone have any suggestions? Should I let the others know that I have more "friends" that I'm contacting? I know, dumb question and I know the answer to it (which is the suggestion no to do it), but I'd like to hear your perspective on it. Thanks

If everything is new there's nothing wrong with doing things without being exclusive. you need to make sure that person is good for you and the more options you have the better chance of a match. my advice is to be honest with the women though, let them know in a subtle way that you just started the online dating and have a couple other new dates ahead that week.. It will make her want to be the best kind of date she can be if you're honest.. and if she isn't and just gets competitive and mad then she's not the right girl. good luck
Reply:Until you and another have agreed to an exclusive relationship, you are free to see anyone you wish. If you are concerned that someone whom you're seeing is more involved with you than the other way around, you might mention that you're still meeting other people, to avoid any misunderstanding.

Reply:dont feel bad about meeting many new friends. but dont discuss it with the other people!
