When you guys say 1-2 months before sleeping with someone

How many dates is that?  Are you seeing this person just once a weekend? 

Help the sexually challenged, ok?  I've had exactly one sexual partner.  I'm practically a virgin at 29, lol.

The day I left was just my beginning.

Re: When you guys say 1-2 months before sleeping with someone

  • For me, it has to be a lot of dates just because I get really nervous and tensed too easy.

    I am starting to relax now but at the same time I have more confidence in myself which results in me picking better guys to date so that makes a world of a difference when it comes to feeling comfortable with a guy.

  • It's ok I think I'm a born again virgin it's been so long!

    I don't really count how many dates but how long you've been in communication if that makes sense.  I am really busy so I cannot spend but one or two times a week with someone but I think you can still get to know someone by talking on the phone and getting more comfortable during that time.  That being said there have been some people that I probably slept with sooner for the simple fact that we spent a TON of time together right away.  Honestly, I prefer it the slow way because I am more comfortable with the progression.  Plus I think it makes things hotter the longer you anticipate!

  • I don't think that you should go by number of dates or months that you are going out with someone.  You should wait until you  want to and feel comfortable with the person.

  • Probably around 4-6 dates. (1-2 a week)

  • I go with how I feel, not how many dates I've been on. If I'm feeling the guy, probably 3 dates or so, which would be meeting once or twice per week. 

    If I'm not that into him and am just sort of dating to date, then I might never sleep with them.

  • I think we had ~15 dates (I use the word "date" loosely; some were times we got together for lunch during the workday) before I knew he was someone who wouldn't turn into a jerk face if I got pregnant.  That's how I decide if someone is sex-worthy--would I be willing to have a child with this man and be tied to him for the next 18 years of my life.

  • With current BF we averaged 3 dates a week right off the bat and I think it was around date 11 or 12 when we first slept together.
