Dont put your eggs in one basket !!!

My grandmother is always saying that to me .I doubt though that this is what she had in mind but I am thinking that I am going to start by diversifying my relationship base so that at any one point intime ,I would have several relationships instead of one.That way I dont loose all I invested when that one fails since I would have another "basket of eggs" so to speak somewhere. This gives me added insulation form heartbreak too since I would have another relationship to fall back on and wouldnt have to spend too much time grieving about the demise of any one relationship. I know some may argue that having so many relationships is going to mean that none will get the effort and time that they deserve and hence increases the chances of failure.My responses to that is that the added benefits of diversity,redundancy and reduced grief time is at least worth trying it out. Disclaimer :I havent tried out this technique yet ,just weighing the pro's and cons ,so if anyone can present convincing arguments why this is not a good approach,then please furnish them.!!!
