Is it right to do relationship hopping?

A lot of people keep hopping from one relationship to another as though it is a game. They can't stick to a relationship and do not really know what they really want in life. They get into a relationship and tehn soon tire of it and then break up and get into another relationship. They are scared of making a commitment and try to avoid getting tied down. How long? How long can they carry it on? Can avoiding commitment get them real happiness?

its funny cause its so true to the heart , yes they do run and avoid the problem which is within themselves , and its so hurtful when they come into a relationship and dont tell you how they truly act in relationships until its over and their running scared and acting like a totally different person , i wouldnt call it its right to do , if you dont tell the other person , ....and no they wont get true happiness out of tactics , of avoiding this fear

I think it's all a matter of preference. If that's how they do it, and it makes them happy, that's great. As for does it give them real happiness, that is up for debate. Can one be genuinely happy with having a new partner frequently? Are they more happy than those who don't even have a relationship at all? Is that just how they are, so it's the happiest they can be anyway?

i would consider that sort of person as insecure and i think he or she is a selfish person who can think only about oneself.

Some people prefer the "fling" thing. Some are capable of doing it even some are already committed but is not yet satisfied with their partner so eventually they would look for some excitement. It cannot be avoided to be drowned into temptation because they wanted more. The question is hard to answer, it will depend on the person who does it. But he/she will fall in love in due time when he/she meets the right person.

this person with this kind of attitude towards relationship are the ones who are insecure and immature. they don't consider the feelings of their partner. they choose to leave if some problems occurred in the relationship because they are not ready to face it they are afraid to get hurt because the truth is they can not handle it.
