Level 1 - Acquaintance. Hi. Bye. Limited conversation.
Level 2 - Associate. Hi. Bye. Possible Movie. A date or two.
Level 3 - Fuckin Friends. Nicer term Bootie Partners. All of the above plus sex. But you are still free to do who you want, when you want. No ties. No explanations.


Level 4 - The talking to phase. You see by now you should know is a person has a significant other or not. If you find out they do and they didn't tell you in the beginning, you don't have to respect them if they come at you and you can let the whole cat out the bag. You didn't negotiate their partner. They compromised them. and violated you by not telling you, thus taking away the freedom of choice you would have had as to whether or not you truly want to be involved with this person or situation. Now, if you knew about the other person and they come to you, shift them back to their partner. It's not your business. It's not your problem. It's their domestics, so let them deal with it. What ever the person your with says, let them run with it. If you do not agree with it, talk about it later. At this level, you are allowed to date only each other and whoever was already mention as their mate. Remember, if you aren't the main one you are no one, but amongst the other no ones you demand to be the main one.


Level 5 - Commitment. We now go together. There will be no cheating unless we decide to have an open relationship.
You see, the purpose of the levels is honesty and staying true to the situation. These levels help you to determine right and wrong and how to address certain situations. Everytime before you graduate to another level, the two parties are to discuss it. Let each other know whether or not they are ready to go to the next level. There will be times where a person is not ready to go to the next level, and it is at this time to honestly discuss it. If you are not ready to go to another level, you have a shot at slowing your roll so you don't get or the other person doesn't get to caught up.
Example. We are both at level 3. You want to go to 4, I want to stay at level 3. If I don't want to go to level 4 you now have a choice to make. Can I deal with seeing her with someone else? Can I deal with her sleeping with who she choose? Can I deal with her telling me we can't go somewhere because she is going somewhere with somebody else?
If the answer is no, then it is at this time we need to get ready to just be friends. If the answer is yes, then we can continue doing what we do. Choices and Consequences. That is what these levels help you determine.
Remember. Honesty is the best policy. Put all your cards on the table. Leave room for no surprises. Let a person know what they are dealing with. Let them decide.
