who was talking about marriage? you said dating mostly people consider dating to be going well if they're attracting other people to them. separation of desire from the need to act (what detachment actually means) is fuckin' magic for that

I don't really see marriage as anything other than government-approved dating, so maybe my terminology is off-sync with yours!
-
Yes, you seem to be using two overlapping-but-not-identical meanings of "dating". Chaos is talking about the part of the process where you're meeting multiple people at a time to see if you want to get more intimate.

Seems that way. I've never done that in my life nor had any inclination to do so so that's not what I meant at all when I referred to "dating"
-
Yeah, i don't do that either, but it is definitely one of a number of possibilities for what people mean by "dating" :)
