Crossing the Line

The other day I was talking to a male friend regarding relationships. And we stumbled across a few things we both didn't agree on. There were certain things, he believed would be okay to do, while I felt like it was crossing the line. You maybe wondering what invisible line I am referring to, well its the one that distinguishes the difference disrespecting a relationship and harmless gestures.
Lets take a closer look at relationships. As you may have read in previous blogs, I am a total advocate for equality in relationships. I also feel that, relationships are a self learning process. When I first started getting into relationships, the guys I dated help mold what the kind of individuals I was attracted to and why. Now as I have reached and older age and maturity, my aspirations for getting into relationships is not to figure out what I like; it is to come across the person whom I feel could be in a sense Mr. Right. This may not be everyones outlook, but it s mine. So if I get into a relationship that has reached the "serious" phase, there are certain things that I don't find acceptable because it is crossing the line. And the major one is, getting other girls number while we are going out. I do not see the reason to get prospective numbers when you are in a serious relationship. If you are in a relationship, why are you still looking. This was a major debate between him and I. I understood some of his reasoning, but I did not agree with it. If a guy looks at another girl while I am with him, I do not think it is a big deal. It is human nature, but if he gawks then approaches her, he needs to be prepared to see me walk away and keep it pushing. My friend tried to justify it by saying that when he goes up to these other girls, he is just playing around, well, If you are saying stuff that you wouldn't say in front of your significant other. Then maybe you aren't playing around. If you aren't happy, then end the relationship.


For those that read my blog, what is something that crosses your line?
