My Method: after date numero uno: wait no less than 3 days before calling. [i]I went out monday last week, called her sunday. Always make first conversation after first date brief (2-3 minutes TOPS). I said had great time wednesday, how about yourself, quick small talk, and ended with a nice "hope we can get together again sometime soon if ya interested". she ends with a most definitely and said I would call her in a few days. NEVER call back less than AT LEAST a week, typically if they dont call by then, they arent/werent interested. Basically putting the ball somewhat in their court if they really want to get together SOONER rather than LATER. She called back today and said, "hey you never said when you want to get together again." Date 2 saturday nod

So, then, it's a good thing to sleep around?
I never said that either. laugh out loud I can see why thegolie didn't like it when I put words in his mouth.

I'm neutral on this opinion, I think before you get engaged/married you needed to have had at least 1 other serious relationship and slept with at LEAST a few different girls/women. If you call the sleeping around, then yes I think it's necessary, if you call that casual dating, then yes I think it's still necessary.

For the same reason why I think it's necessary to "date around" before you get married. Because if you get into one serious relationship and it goes straight to marriage, you'll never know what you missed. You'll also never know if this is the right person for you, yes you "love" them, or you think you "love" them, but how would you know what love actually is if you never dated anyone else?

And the reason to sleep around, is a relationship is also physical, no matter how you play it, no relationship (or let me rephrase that, no healthy relationship) is all mental/emotional. There has to be sex to make it work, it's the way our brains are programmed. So I think you should at least know what it's like to have sex with someone else before you make a commitment with one person to sleep with them for the rest of your life.

You could play devils advocate and say "ignorance is bliss"...

So the gist of this whole thread is that men are ho's and women are too if they call you back too soon after the date...right?

Dating doesn't require sex. And honestly, if you're committed to your relationship, you make sacrifices... even in bed. It goes both ways. If one partner doesn't want it most of the time, they're going to have to give it up sometimes, even if you're not "in" to it. Like, there are days when I just don't feel like it, but when my guy gives me those eyes, I can't help but quench his thirst. I do it because I love him.

My fiance is the only man I've ever had sex with and ever want to have sex with. With sex this good, who needs anything else? Stick Out Tongue

I agree with the first part

And with the second part, I understand where you're coming from, and not be an ass, but how do you know what sex is like with other men? it could be much worse than your fiance or it could be much better. (and even if it is better, it's not like you're going to dump your fiance and move on, most long term relationships are not purely physical or purely mental/emotional, it's a combination of the two).
I wasn't saying that you have to go sleep around, I just think that both the man and woman in the relationship would have a more secure feeling about the relationship if they had 1 serious relationship before they get married (mental/emotional aspect) and had a few partners (physical aspect). Dontknow maybe I'm way off base here.

Why do I need to know what sex is like with other men when my sex-life is beyond anything I had ever dreamed of? When you have a Royce, do you really NEED to go out looking for a better car?

laugh out loud but if lived in isolation your whole life, and someone gives you a honda civic and says it's a Porsche, you try it out and it rides great, and you love it; you'll never know what you missed out on. Again - ignorance is bliss, lol Smilie

Ignorance can be bliss. One day, my mom told me she wished she'd never met her ex-husband so she wouldn't have had to go through his abuse. I asked her, "But what about my three sisters? They wouldn't be here if it weren't for him." Her response? "I wouldn't miss what I'd never had."

And thegoalie, as long as you're open and honest about your desires and dislikes with your partner, there should be no problems. My guy and I are blunt and it makes things great laugh out loud laugh out loud

Cannot argue with you ... especially if this is the last man you'll ever have such an intimate relationship with.

btw Welcome to the Lounge, rough thread to get acquainted in! Evillaugh
