5 dates is fast. You may be a ho. |
Very similar to diets like WW |
Best response of the day. |
I said well planned dates…. It’s usually over a month since first intro not fast by OLD standards |
You think someone in their 20’s or who was recently in their 20’s can’t be a parent? And you’re calling someone else an idiot? Wow. I mean this phenomenon has been going on for at least 10 years so if you’re like… late 30’s or younger you should be aware of it. |
I don’t think 5 dates is realistic. All the relationships I have been in, the chemistry developed (if it did) well before 5 dates. Nature took it’s course, and we had sex. It wasn’t forced, it just naturally happened. Once you pass a threshold time w/o sex, the relationship becomes this weird friend zone, with promise of romance that just doesn’t happen. You can get sucked in and waste a lot of time, and it’s hard to get out b/c really you’re just friends. |

I think five dates is realistic. I'm a man and I waited for five dates plenty of times. I usually at least kissed a woman before then, but not always. Sooner can be good too. Some of my most serious relationships in my life moved fast with sex on second dates.
Some women move really slowly and some of those women send mixed signals. It can be very frustrating but sometimes it's worth the wait. I think sending clear signals of interest is important, even if you're not ready for sex. A couple of women moved too slowly for me by making me think they just wanted friendship when they really wanted a slow burn romance. They told me later, after it was too late. |
You really think you did something here, dontcha? What next, start talking about how white Christian men are the most persecuted population?? Give me a break. Your mommy is calling you, just be snack time. Why are you on a mommy website anyways? |
And yet you are still unmarried floating from relationship to relationship. The fact that “slow” women didn’t cut it for just shows you are not interested in something long term. Only mid term. Long term takes patience and time to build a relationship . Plenty of spouses meet each other at work and don’t sleep after 5 timed seeing each other. This quick sex or I’m out mentality is really damaging for developing emotional connections and relationships |
DP, “slow” can mean the chemistry is not there, and there’s no reason to waste more time if that’s what you’re looking for. It’s ok to set up whatever threshold for yourself, but realize some see it differently. Unmatched sex drive is a recipe for failure, you’ve got to make sure you’re on the same page early on. |
No it doesn’t equate low L or no attraction at all. She might not like how you not plan dates in advance, talk about your exes, relationships, have instant gratification attitude, might have periods, upcoming travels etc. You treat women disposable and thus your relationships all have a timer |
How’s that working out for you? |
You’re such a basket of red flags which would be an automatic skip for many. You sound like you see your self as the prize, the one to be impressed and won over. Does the man need to plan all the dates in advance and submit them to your judgement? Ok for the man to take the lead, but why can’t think of something to do on at least one of those dates, unless you’re completely boring and have no interests or hobbies. You’re going to be evaluated as a partner too, and for men, sex is a criterion for sure, besides how you talk about your ex, relationships etc. The prize is not you, it’s building a great relationship together, and sex is an important part of it. If it’s missing, no point investing more time in it. You’re bound to be alone, because the men that have options won’t put up with your attitude, and the ones that supplicate are a turn off. A good rule of thumb is to find a partner that matches the effort you put in. |
Imagine a world where you have chemistry, but you don’t have sex right away. |
