TLDR: Met girl #1 in February, solid connection, deep compatibility, but soft flame. Met girl #2 abroad in May, intense passion and physical attraction, but only a few weeks in. Girl #1 gave me an ultimatum this weekend. I want something lasting, but I’m scared of choosing wrong. How do you pick between comfort/compatibility and passion/unknown? ​ ​ ​ I met the first girl in February. We spent a couple of nights together and kept seeing each other casually. We get along really well, have a lot in common, and can truly be ourselves around each other. We agreed to keep things light until I got back from a trip abroad in May. ​ During that trip, I met a second girl. We had two intense days together in a beautiful setting, and kept seeing each other after I returned. Both women live near me, and both know about each other. ​ With the second girl, I feel passion and strong physical attraction. With the first, it’s more like a deep friendship — I find her charming, I can be myself around her, and the connection feels real. The flame is softer though, and I’m less sure I’d be romantic with her. ​ I want to build something serious and lasting. The first has given me an ultimatum — exclusivity or she walks — and I have until this weekend. The second is uncomfortable with the situation but giving me more time. ​ The problem is I don’t have enough perspective on the second — a few weeks, a dream setting, the excitement of something new. I’ve never seen her on an ordinary Tuesday evening. I don’t know who she is when life is mundane. ​ But with the first, the flame is soft. With the second, we just look so good together.
