how long to wait
| Thu, 11-17-2005 - 3:27pm |
Do you think it matters how long you wait to have sex? Will a guy still be interested in you if you have sex on the 1st 2nd or 3rd date or have you lost all grounds for a serious relationship developing?

I married a man I slept with on the first date. So no, doing so is not *necessarily* fatal to the possibility of a serious relationship developing.
That said, I don't do so any more...I prefer to wait until we've dated about 2 months or so (unless I'm just looking for a casual fling). The reason for waiting is, I tend to get emotionally attached to men I'm sleeping with, and those feelings cause me to suspend my normally good judgment. As a result, I end up in over my head emotionally with men who are not a good match...which I would have known if I'd taken the time to get to KNOW them for a couple months before sleeping with them!
