Have you ever been concerned about getting involved with a woman because you didn't want to hurt her feelings if it didn't work out?

Ever felt like you shouldn't go deeper emotionally with a woman you were dating because you weren't sure you wanted to put a ring on it?

Does it ever feel like all women want a long-term, committed relationship, so if you're not available for that, you're somehow doing something wrong?

The fact is, sex, dating and relationships are complex. There are a lot of possibilities, and the best kind of relationships are the ones that feel good to both parties.

Here, we explore how to date ethically, share what you're available for, and how to be aware of what's underneath your fear of upsetting a woman. We also outline the immense value of short- and medium-term relationships, and what some women really want when it comes to those.
