<human>: I (33m) recently met a girl, and I'm crazy about her. We've been out to dinner a few times, and kissed. She is extremely independent, which I love about her.

I, however, have a history of getting too emotionally invested early on in relationships, and it has led me into some bad relationships because I find myself too committed to the person early on. I'm trying to break out my old ways by learning how to take things slow, but it doesn't come naturally to me.

So I ask: How long do you date someone, and just let it "be what it is," before you start thinking about committing to a relationship with that person? I know this is extremely subjective, but I'm just trying to get a feeling for what regular dating is supposed to feel like, because my impatient habits are kicking in.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: I always rush and get involved too early. How long does dating usually last before a "relationship" should be formed?
