How to date like a man

Well as I sit in my NYC apartment, alone, on a Saturday night, I start to think.

Why am I single? What am I doing wrong?

I narrowed it down to the simplest of problems. I am a serial monogamist. I am not the kind of woman who tries to trap a man or who can't live without a man by her side, but when I do have a man or am dating someone, I only date that one person. That seems to be my problem in a nutshell. I date one guy at a time and when that doesn't work out, I am back to square one.

On the other hand, I have male co-workers and male friends who date more than one girl at a time and some of them can seem to handle it. It keeps their options open while testing the waters. What I am most concerned about is juggling more than one guy.

How do I test the waters without drowning?
What are the pros and cons of this type of dating?
