Too much too soon?

been on 2 dates with this guy and chatted on the phone about 6 times and emailed a lot.
I said in other posts that I felt very attracted to him the minute we spoke on the phone and this only became stronger after we met face to face.
We both love the outdoor. I had planned a camping trip with my friends few months back but we were missing one more person so I thought of him since he loves camping.
He came over to my place on date #2 to help me plan the camp reservations... nothing happened but I know he is very interested...
I feel comfortable doing this but would like your opinion. Is it too much too soon? He is aware that we needed this 10th person and he had done camping the weekends before this long one... and its our last chance for a warm camping before the long canadian winter here.
I will be sharing the tent with him . It s the sleeping arrangement decided on by the other organizers. (Since I m the only one who knows him in the group)
would like to hear your honest opinions.

Actually what I said was it was "too much too soon" and I wasn't talking about sex but rather too much togetherness and sharing for me with someone I don't know. Camping and the lack of amenities result in sharing space in a way that people that don't know each other rarely do - I was talking about a non-sexual type of intimacy. In your response you brought up the subject of sex by mentioning that you would stay up until you were too tired to have sex.
I am glad you enjoyed yourself and feel closer but stand by my opinion that it takes time to get to know a person and find out whether you are emotionally and intellectually compatible and that for many women, including me, sex can make us see what we want to see and even ignore those little nagging warning signs that may have prevented us from wasting months or even years on a man that isn't compatible with us in any way but the physical.
Good luck. I hope it works out for you.
I totally agree with you. It is very intimate to sleep in the same tent as someone else although less intimate than sharing a bed.
You are zipped up in a sleeping bag so you wont touch at all during the night. Still, you are in a closed area alone and might be tempted to get physical.
Thnx for your honesty. We all learn from experience and form our own different opinions about life.
