What are your relationship patterns like? Would you call it serial monogamy - going from one relationship to the next without a breather?

Mine is probably more like alternating Chronic Complacentcy, if that's a word, and Independitis. Long term relationships that I eventually realize aren't quite right. Followed by periods of being alone and getting to be myself. Can't come up with anything clever for that, sorry. I'm not sure what affliction is next. Whatever it is, it won't be some hypochondriac response, nor healed by a placebo. And why is "I want a new drug" going though my head now?  | |

serial monogamy ..me no. I seemed to always hang in a relationship for better or worse. When they ended I usually took a long breather. I have been in the relationship I'm in now for 32yrs, dated for 4 married for 28. I never was a jump out of the fire into the the frying pan person. Besides I'm picky I guess, I just never found that many guys who I was interested in enough to have a relationship with.

Ummm that use to be my MO, when I was younger, jump from one to the other. But seems as I get older, there is quite a bit of time between each. Last time I was between there was was a 4 year break, this time its going on a year and a half and counting. The relationships themselves lasted 1 1/2 years to 2 years. Never gone past the 2 year mark. Year and a half seems to be my running point. |

I think I'm with Teasha on this one.. It was what I did when I was younger. From one relationship right into the next. It hasn't been that way in the last couple of years.. mostly because I wasn't finding the right people/person.

I guess that sounds like me, serial monogamist. I've been in relationships more than not. I don't really jump from one to the next though. I don't NEED to be in a relationship, it has just worked out that way. My average relationship length is about 5-6 years, whatever that says about me. LTR's that weren't the right fit I guess. I don't really worry about it too much. I'll either meet someone who is the right one for me or I won't, no biggie. I'd rather be alone then settle for someone that doesn't click right. I do try for quality over quantity though. |

I definitely don't jump from one to the next. I'm never looking for them to begin with. They just kinda "happen" when they do.
