This question is something you have to ask yourself, before you even sign up for a dating website.

And, you need the answer before you go any further, if you want to be happy with the person you get into a relationship with.

Once you have the answer, you should let people know in your dating profile just what you’re looking for. There’s no point in wasting your time with other singles that aren’t looking for the same relationship you are.

If you’re looking for casual relationship, hook-up or intimate encounter,  you’re only looking for fun. Make sure to mention that you’re not looking to settle down. The last thing you want is to get involved with a person that’s looking for serious relationship.

If both parties are on the same page then they will the same things from the relationship. This stops any heartbreak in the future.

When one party is expecting something different then the other, this is where serious problems start.

So make it  absolutely clear about what you are looking for from the beginning.

You should have no doubts that the intentions of the other person are the same as yours. Even if it is a casual relationship, both people should have a mutual understanding at least about the basis of the relationship.

There will always be someone who’s looking for the same things you are, so there’s no need to settle for less (or more) then you want.
