Some things gotta be lived through.
Just because "intellectualy" you "understand" that you "shouldn't" LTR this girl doesn't mean that your feelings match that. You might have to go through an LTR to actually find out which is the best path for you. And it might not be this kinda path we discuss in the forum, who knows...
There are no cake recepies, and there is no point in being dogmatic.
I come from a background of long LTRs. I've been that way long enough, and went through the ups and downs of a monogamous lifestyle, the motions. After having "lived" that out, I realised, not intelectually, but felt, that my path for a deeper growth in this particular moment of my life was NOT to be stuck with one girl, LEARN how to play the field like a boss, grow independent, travel etc... but that is what makes sense for ME, in MY life, right NOW. I have no idea if that will change or not, but just by living things through that you find the answers for your own path.
Perhaps, if you take a less dogmatic stance, going for a LTR with this girl might be what you oughta be doing right now. Perhaps not. Things cannot be grasped only on a "theoretical" level, you gotta try it out in real life. And be open for change, always.
Being said that, may I just add... if you do go the LTR way, do so, but keep it light. Be aware that it might tire after a while. After some months, stop and ponder if it still feels right. You might be surprised that you miss the rush for new pussy, or you might be equally surprised that you don't! But you'll never know if you just "think" about things without actually experimenting them first hand, in your life.
Hope to have been of some help.
