How do you bring sex into a new relationship?

Welcome to the board, chronicallystill.

It's never a bad idea to talk and plan things. He may be struggling with how he feels about having sex. Talking with him is also the only way that you will really know what he's thinking.

Are you willing to get tested for STDs and wait for those results before moving to this step in your relationship? That might be something else you want to discuss with him.

If he is shy, or does have hesitation, being too forward, physically, might scare him off in the other direction. By talking with him about your desires, and seeing how he feels about the same, you will also be able to reassure him about any doubts he may have.
