So you have put your BGP on and now you're thinking that maybe you should do something else with them? ( LOL,hope you are not offended but your question struck me as funny in light of your thread title. I see humor in a lot of things.)
I dunno...how easy would it be to compartmentalize this area of your life? And, do you feel that you are at a point where you are emotionally ready for this or do you not anticipate emotional involvement?
The need for companionship AND MORE is a very human one. Just be very sure that you are not adding any additional anxiety to your life.
