When it feels right. But is there a reason why you need to put a label on it? Can't it just evolve for a bit on it's own?

im staying in a hotel tonite in her home town , I have not told her this and it is not my intention to take her there with me , im picking her up at her moms and will leave her home after dinner

I would be happy to have this girl be my girlfriend but im wondering if its too early , I know some will say that sex needs to happen first but I honest am not in a rush , that said she may view me as a wimp for not wanting sex before asking her to be my girlfriend

perhaps I should go half way and ask her to be exclusive but that sounds kind of formal and unromantic tbh
Yes ask her.

I would say 15 to 20 dates?

You know nothing about this woman besides the fact that she is willing to date you.

It's not a marriage proposal. She'll either say yes or no (at which time you can ask again later because she'll tell you if it's too soon). If she likes you, you're not going to scare her off. So, yeah, ask her.

I didn't ask her to be my girlfriend , I did however tell her that " I wanted to get to know her better and that I had no interest in anyone else right now "

We also went back to my hotel room for two hours , we didn't have sex as she told me she's still a virgin and wasn't ready yet , at first I was very surprised but I was touched by her honest disclosure , we fooled around and she told me I " made her feel very special "

Then I drove her home and returned to my paid accommodation for the nite

how soon to ask??


their is no exact time..

i wouldnt put a label on it too quickly,,actions speak louder than words.

exclusivity seems to be what you want-and if two likes each other it will happen..

take a deep breathe... step back and enjoy the moment..


some girls like to be courted a bit, treat her like a lady... things will happen if its meant to be,,,
