There's a happy medium in there somewhere. When things are fast and furious, they tend to fizzle out. But if things go too slow, either person (or both) could lose interest. I think the key is finding a good balance. Go at a pace you both feel comfortable with. Make it clear that you're interested in the other person, but let the relationship unfold at a natural pace. You shouldn't be introducing to families, etc. until you're both sure you want this relationship to last. Don't move in after just a couple months.
I know there are people out there who are going to say, "I married my spouse after 6 weeks and we're still together 20 years later". Yes, those couples do exist, but they are definitely the exception, not the norm.
Take my time
With my ex-wife I was fast and furious. I told her I loved her before she even knew what to say, and we moved in together after only a few months.
With my ex-girlfriend it was slower than slow because I met her online and everybody told me she was fake like a catfish or something. I avoided even messaging her back for the longest time but she was persistent, and I slowly started talking to her as a friend. It developed from there and she turned out to everything I needed at that time in my life.

u in the middle... I am about balance
doesn't matter much to me about the speed, I just want to make every second really count for something meaningful but!! I do like to take my time with it as well
it sounds tricky and maybe like a contradiction, but is really not... lol, at least not in my experience
I try to make friends fast and furious. I wait before I get super serious romantic, at least a month. After three months, if things are going well, I get smoochy. After six months, I begin thinking about taking things the next level.
But I'm flexible. Especially if it's an LDR. Gotta keep my expectations reasonable.
If it flows then its ment to be even for a while or long either way time is gold however fast it takes to get acquainted and know who your dating is how fast you should move... a lot of people like to lie so just when you find that out leave immediately, lying people will always hurt you , the truth costs nothing and if you can give truth doesn't matter what it is you can find out if the person loves you faster duh👌👌😉
After my divorce it was time to decide to take it easy relax for while and go slow I love being in relationship with girl I just love being with girl too keep me company to be loved by her that I can enjoy being with her that will enjoy nice dinner for eveiñg date
Once we’re in the bedroom I want to take it nice and slow, but if we don’t get there fairly quickly I’ll turn my energy in a different direction.
No idea these days. I took it slow before I got married. "Glacial" really.
That's 20 years ago.
I think I'd try it a bit faster if I was single again now.
Sometimes you can learn and click with someone very easy and fast. Sometimes you need time to get to know each other especially according to the situation, the person issues, or where your at.
Slow and easy, gotta build up that trust first and get to know someone first, before jumping into relationships etc
I like to take it slow just as fast as I can. Get to know them and enjoy every moment. Have fun.. experience. That's the Wally way.
Years ago I would have said slow. Not so sure now... time is too precious. Maybe not as fast as the picture but probably not slow.
Depends on the person. Some people I click with right out of the gate. Most people don’t understand me for varying distances.
Definitely not F, though I do agree with Patrick. lol
It’s complicated, but mostly E.
if we know we're attracted to each other, why not have sex right away? i don't get the waiting period
No rules for that... Just living the moment depending on the person... I'm not afraid of " commitment " and I'm wise enough to not get taken advantage of...
I like nice and slow friendly friendships. It’s never the other person it’s always me, I’m literally so anti social in person. Same with romantic relationships.
oddly both at the exact same time. certain asoects of getting to know wach other are rushed where other aspects of getting to know each other i keep slow or never really care to learn about.
I take it slowly, there's no need to rush it's better to savor every moment!.
Fast…slow down for a little while. Like that…. Risk and go but stop to breathe
Slow and easy. I haven’t dated since I was 15 or so and I’m 23 now, so things like kissing or sex on the first few dates just seems way too fast for me.
Depends, if I'm in the mood for drama of course we're going to have to go with fast and furious.
