That led me to think, how many of you would actually have sex on the first date? What do you think about it?
I never have but my mind certainly wanders about doing it (pun intended? I'm not sure) with this guy. I know the common thing said though is that guys would never date a girl who gave it up on the first date. I'm inclined to think that's not true.
I was mostly told to wait until marriage or if I was in a committed loving relationship. And my parents certainly didn't agree with what the Catholic Church thought about contraption, homosexuality and the priesthood.
I was an altar boy! I had the Catholic church all around me (due to my parent's community position), but never heard sex mentioned once. Perhaps they saved it for the girls
That said, I did know at an early age a couple of priests that left the priesthood, & married -via being introduced to their spouses, by my Dad!
I think all that early information about holding on to it is quite salient however, in your teens, when all your hormones are flying around, & you're likely to make enormous mistakes that can damage your self esteem. It's just to protect you from users, though if it's mutual, & discreet, where's the harm.
That said, I've always had sex on the first date, or the first time I wanted it (I must give off some kind of signal)- post 18, & it hasn't affected my opinion of anyone at all. You never really know anyone until you've slept with them, & certainly never if you haven't lived with them!
I don't actually think, however, that you should have sex with anyone until I've made some millions (to indulge your own projects), worked out all my irritating personality flaws, & met you:wink:, though that could take a while.:frown1: Oh well, practice makes perfect.:biggrin1:
Have a very, very happy birthday on Wednesday, & indulge yourself in whatever you like - you deserve it:fest06:.
:laola:
PS - get out there & meet more people IRL! I'm sure that there are thousands of decent, dashing, chaps out there willing to sweep you off your feet!
