I wouldn't feel comfortable dating someone (even just friendly dates) who was going out with somebody else, if I thought they were "evaluating" me as a po- tential SO. I wouldn't want anyone to do that to me. I'd also feel guilty if I broke up another relationship, even if it were to my advantage. -- It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes we wonder how I keep from goin' under.
