6 Reasons To Wait To Have Sex

Here are reasons to wait:

It Filters Out The Jerks

A friend of mine recently told me that she ran into a guy she had gone out with a few times and the two of them decided to meet up again. They ended up at his place and he started putting the moves on her, and he got to the point of begging her to have sex with him even though she continued to tell him "no". Eventually, she made it out of the apartment and, despite the awkwardness of their date, she wanted to keep seeing him at least as friends. However, when she contacted him, he told her that he didn't think it was going to work out.

Witholding sex is the easiest way to see if a guy is only in it for the sex. If you don't have sex with him and he's just in it for the sex, he'll move on to someone else, and he'll most likely disappear. Maybe waiting will increase your chances of losing a guy, but why would you want to be with someone who was impatient with sex anyway?

You'll Know Each Other More, So It Might Be Better

It may be a novel idea, but the more you know someone, the more comfortable you are with them. I've never had the pleasure of having sex with someone who I knew as a best friend, who I felt comfortable with, and was on my wavelength. I bet having sex with someone after you've realized you're compatible in every way is an amazing experience.

It Builds Tension

While you're going on dates, and getting closer, the tension builds. You both know sex will eventually happen, but you don't know when. With each passing day, the desire and anticipation gets more intense. Isn't this more fun than a random drunk fling?

A Well-Timed Peak Is A Good Peak

It's never good to peak too soon. When this happens, you might burn out. I'm guilty like everyone else when it comes to vices and pleasure: I am so impatient that I get annoyed at the one second patch of silence while my iPod looks for a selected song. When I'm at a nice dinner and stuff my face too fast, it's not as pleasant as when I pace myself and enjoy my meal. Sex can be the same way: if you do it at the right time, then the relationship has a good pace.

One Night Stands Rarely Result In Calls Back

I can't stress enough that after a one night stand, I never call a girl back. In addition to the too early peak, whether it's fair or not, I have slightly lowered respect for a girl (and myself) after a one night stand. None of my guy friends have ever called a girl back after a one night stand, unless they plan to have a purely sexual relationship going forward.

You Can Always Go Forward, But You Can Never Go Back

This is the reason that so many Lifetime movies include that woman crying in the corner of the shower scene. They want to wash away that horrible man and the mistake that they made. While sex is tempting, if you can wait it out, you can avoid regret and mistakes. You can always have sex with a person when the time is right, but you can never erase a mistake. And these mistakes can set you back in dating.

Have you ever had a relationship that was destroyed by poorly timed sex? Do you agree that waiting is always good? What other reasons do you have to support waiting? Is there ever a reason not to wait?

Finding Love With Relationship

Mom and dad are in the kitchen roaming about with dad swigging down his last drop of coffee and mom tidying up after the kids have ate and rushed off to school. The two kiss each other as they rush out the door heading off to work. Mom heads one direction, dad goes another direction, and finally they both meet their destination.

At work, the hours go by and tasks are completed, but as mom sits at her desk, her mind begins to wonder. “What do I cook for supper?” she thinks. Her mind continues racing as she recalls the Parent Teachers Conference the following week. Mom now has to find time off work to join the meeting, and hopes that her children are doing well in school. When she arrives home, she cooks, cleans and finds time to relax after a busy schedule. Dad has already hit the couch watching the latest news, while the kids are in their room doing homework.

A common relationship is ongoing, and the next week mom makes the Parent Teacher Conference all to find that her children are failing in school. She thinks, “Have I encouraged my children enough?” Mom begins to blame her self, and when she arrives home anxious to talk with her husband, she finds him absence. Dad had to work late again to meet his deadlines, so she calls the office where dad works and dad is not answering the phone. Later that evening dad comes home. The kids are in bed and mom is sitting aimlessly staring into the space, when dad says, “Hi honey, how was your day?”

Mom frustrated and confused snaps, “How was your day.” Dad shoots her a curious look and says, “I am sorry honey, I had to work late again.” Mom shots back with a hint of anger, “Why didn’t you answer the phone when I called.” She walks up to her husband and smells a reek of alcohol on his breath. “You worked late, huh,” she stammers with a hint of “yea right.” Dad stares for a moment and says, “Ok, I did stop off for a few drinks at the local tavern, I was only there for an hour, I swear.” Mom stares haplessly at him for a moment and turns on her heals, storming out of the room.

What do you think will happen next? As we can see we have love and relationship, and a family arrangement, but something is missing to make this relationship stand. We can review the scenario together to see which elements needed to make this relationship solid. In the first scene, family arrangement is in tact since it takes two to work to make ends meet. Thus, the parents are readying for work, while the children are heading off to school. Mom has done her job in preparing breakfast, and kissing dad as he rushes off to work.

Mom has also attended the meeting, and adhered to her motherly and spouse duties, and has worked at her job. Would it help if dad helped her along in the kitchen and around the house, since mom has two jobs? Yes, it would help. Still, this is only one of the elements to make a relationship stand. Sharing is always a good thing in love and relationships. When two people share, it brings them together.

Mom has emotions that are instigating trouble, since she is blaming her self for her children’s failure, and shows those emotions when dad comes home with the reek of alcohol on her breath. Dad doing as he pleases, would not like it if the tables turned.

Obviously, mom is feeling frustrated and appears to take it out on dad, which makes him think or readers believe that mom is emotional. However, mom expressed her feelings with assertiveness and disagreement; still she stormed out of the room, leaving the conversation hanging in the air. We see a lack of communication in this family, since from the beginning of the story to the end; we did not hear communication between the children, mom or dad. We also need respect to make this relationship stand.

Friends in Love and Relationships

Friends are a form of relationship built on different types of love. When man and woman joins in love and relationship, intimacy labors throughout the arrangement, however in friendship a different type of intimacy exists that makes the relationship work. Friendship, as intimate relationships work with the exception that sex is not in the arrangement in some instances. Some friends join in friendship and later commit to sexual relations, thus leading to commitment or else separation.
Friendships that are long lasting usually have the ingredients to make the relationship work. Friends may cause each other agitation, frustration, or unintentional harm down the road in the relationship, yet the two will work together to make it work by finding a resolve.
Friendship is a form of commitment between two or more people, and often friends join in activities, entertainment, and communication. True friends will prove true to the end of the relationship. Friends will not interfere with each other’s life, unless the friend sees the need to address an issue that is causing the friend harm, or in the making of causing him/her harm.
True friends in love and relationships will not hold back any punches when addressing issues with friends. While the friend will not hold back any punches, he/she will use consideration of the person’s feelings and emotions when addressing issues. Friends have your back, which is a symbol of love displayed on their part, and friends that endure throughout the trials and tribulations of the relationship, show love since long-suffering and self-control are visual.
Friends in love and relationship may fight at times, but both parties will apologize for his/her part that instigated the disagreement. Friends will tell you when you are wrong, thus again not holding back any punches, while considering you.
Friends that develop into intimate relationships, often work through the arrangement regardless of the storms laid on their plates. Friendship before intimacy is smart, since the two have an overview of the others behaviors, habits, personality, skills, et cetera.
Love and relationships built on true friendship will last through habits, behaviors, personality flaws, et cetera, providing violence or repeated actions of inconsideration and disrespect is ongoing.
When mates disrespect each other, or show inconsideration ongoing, thus, the relationship will fail, since friendship, love and elements that compose love are lacking.
Disrespect expands further than most people think. Thus, learning beliefs, traditions, and standards is smart when considering love and relationships. Thus, starting out as friends will help you see through the person’s behaviors, habits and personality, what makes him or her up as a person. The makeup of the person will include an insight of standards, traditions, and beliefs.
Beliefs are tricky, since nowadays standards are lower than ever, thus beliefs are often overlying inconsistency and dishonesty. When a person has lack of evidence to support their beliefs, thus faulty thinking is underlying the mind.
Beliefs are either concrete or superficial. To convince me that a person is worth my time, the person better have some realness in light. Thus, superficial beliefs rarely stand firm, thus the person is obviously heading in the wrong direction, and thus the relationship may or may not last.
