Assuming you are looking for a long term relationship.

+1 yNot until we're in a committed relationship with each other. That can range from weeks to months in most cases, but by that point, ideally you should both know each other well enough to know what you're looking for, are you interested in said person, and establish an emotional and physical connection with them. That and there has to be trust before I can sleep with anyone! That's why, usually we're in a stable relationship when it happens.
If he can't wait until I'm ready or feel comfortable with him, it's not happening.

+1 yIf I remember, Wayback win, it was a few weeks or maybe even a month before my husband and I got full on intimate. I wasn't in a hurry and I could tell that he wanted a long-term relationship because he wasn't focused on it. When you're gonna be in a long-term relationship, you know there will be plenty of time and moments for sexual intimacy, so you're not worried about the speed at which it happens. it's kind of like short term investing versus long-term investing. We didn't have a need for a get rich quick scheme :-)

No doubt, a new couple will be very excited, both mentally, and physically, just try to gauge if you both want the same thing, I'm willing to bet it's hard to do, especially in this decade.
+1 yI've heard different formulas from different people. Some say it should be a certain number of dates, some say it should be a certain amount of time. My opinion is that it should be when you are comfortable being intimate with that person. Don't force yourself into it just because of some random formula but also, don't wait if you are both ready.

+1 yIf I'm looking for a long-term relationship, I let her know on date #1 that I'm interested. That can be a simple kiss, a more passionate kiss, or something more, depending on her reaction to the simple kiss.
After that, we take it at whatever pace works for us. There is no hard and fast rule.

+1 yI'm not looking for a long term relationship. It's about comfort and intimacy in my case. If I really like him and feel safe with him and feel comfortable enough to get naked and be vulnerable, then I'd do it.
So far no guy or girl has made me feel that way, so I haven't given it up lmao.

In your case, I'd say a few months. An year, if you guys can wait. You can also wait for marriage.
1.6K opinions shared on Dating topic. I don't know, I am kind of old fashion. If I know you or we get to know one another and go out and have a good time. If there is a second date then I am pretty much committed. That doesn't mean we should be having sex but it does mean we should be discussing it as an option.

+1 yFor me, it was love at first sight. The day my husband and I had met, we were already becoming intimate. We even had our first kiss later on that same day when we went on our first date. Six days later, we became lovers.

+1 yI would guess that there are some variants in the equation. How often are you seeing each other weekly? How the chemistry is going. If it's all going well I would say within a month. Whether it's a long-term relationship or not.

It's a tricky thing to wait too long or be too impatient with it.
Wait too long, maybe they think you're not interested.
Rush in too fast, they think you're just after sex.
Just let it get hot and heavy by itself.10 Reply785 opinions shared on Dating topic. I would say when you are both ready or when it feels natural. But, if you only date once a week or might be longer than if you date several times a week.
10 ReplyI would wait until you get to know each other better and you feel confident that he knows you well enough to like you for who you are. And that he wants to spend all his time with you. That's key.

Anonymous(25-29)+1 yDepends Have we been together for a while. I’d say 2-3 months if I really liked him and cared for him. Some relationships aren’t it. Like this guy he’s really clingy don’t think that’ll work out.

Opinion Owner+1 y@pethouse. Like texting all the time. I get busy. I don’t like when a guy responds right away. It’s different if it’s every now and then but whenever I send something don’t respond back right away. Wait a couple minutes.
