Ethical Question - Relationships that won't go anywhere
So here's the hypothetical situation:
Girl you've been seeing once a week or so for two months wants a serious relationship. Says she can't handle another heartbreak so she needs commitment. Really really likes you. You like her, but you're 98% sure she's not the one for you but you'd love to keep seeing her, you care about her a lot and she's fun, interesting, etc. But at what cost, huh? Would likely have to dump her sooner or later and the longer it goes the harder it'll be on her.
Is the risk par for the course or do you end it right now before you hurt her more, even though she'll be much happier until we end it...?

Depends how much you actually care about her.
If you care about her, be honest and tell her what's up.
If you care more about yourself, promise a relationship and nail it till something better comes along.. her = owned

if you believe it can go serious and develop, tell her. if not, probably best to reslease her. from an ethical standpoint that is.

Yeah, please consider this. You don't want to end up in my situation in a couple years.
