1) You know what you want in a woman

If you haven't dated many women at all, how do you know what you REALLY want? If you've dated your share of high-quality women and you've had a chance to fine-tune exactly who it is you're looking for, then you'll be WAY better equipped to recognize her when she shows up in your life.

And if you find yourself in the mood to actually HAVE an exclusive relationship with her, it's probably because of the next point...

2) You've left no curiosity unanswered in the dating world

Here' a truth that's about as simple as truth gets: If you're still interested in dating lots of women, then you probably aren't interested in choosing one of them from the mix at this point.

If you end up in a steady relationship under such circumstances, you'll probably end up with your nose pressed against the glass looking at "greener pastures" outside.

And this will be the case no matter how great your girlfriend is. After all, you weren't in the "relationship" state of mind just yet.

On the other hand, what if you've been dating sixteen women at once, and have grown tired of all the juggling?

Let's say you narrowed that field down to four or five at that point. And after a while, you then started realizing that you had met and enjoyed the company of lots of incredible women but were now thinking more about stability and long-term vision than you have in the past.

It's about then that you may realize that one woman on your list is by far your first choice. Were she available every night, you'd see her instead of the others.

Well, that woman would be a GOOD choice for an exclusive relationship, I'd say. You will have selected her from many options and with a solid frame of mind.

3) You have tested and approved her ultimate worthiness

Even if you have a firm grasp on what runs your guns as far as women go, and even if you have a pile of women in your life, there's always the off chance that one's going to come along who flat-out knocks your socks off. The switch gets flipped and she's basically all you can think of.

Whoa there, cowboy.

You've been around the block to know that it takes sweet time to qualify a woman fully. Spend loads of time with her in common, everyday situations. Mix it up some. Meet her friends and vice-versa. Go on that all-important road trip I talked about in an earlier article.

You've got to make sure you know that what's under the hood has the horsepower to back the sexy bodywork. Otherwise, she's "all show and no go". And true character takes time to show forth in its fullness.

Take your time and decide from a position of strength. And deserve what you want also, because a great woman like her is probably as tuned in to reason as you are.
