"They 'shop around’… date girls and if they wanted to settle down with someone they dated, they would have done so". I don’t think dating and shopping around can be correlated. Shopping around is something like random hookups. When u shop around you are either are looking for the best value for your money or you are not looking for something in particular... when you date someone neither is true. You don't get into a relationship thinking this is the best I can do for myself or oh I was just looking around and I met you lets date...
