It may shock you to learn that men can choose when to consider having sex too. If he chooses for it to be 3 months then so be it, it's none of your business.

One date per weekend x 3 months = 12 dates plus one. This assumes one date only as you could really be 'in' to each other and see each other more frequently. In this case, if there was a date every day, the number of dates could be up to 92. Note that I did not say 93 dates because there is no instance where 3 months of 31 dates each are consecutive:

January - 31 days
February - 28 days; 29 days in Leap Years
March - 31 days
April - 30 days
May - 31 days
June - 30 days
July - 31 days
August - 31 days
September - 30 days
October - 31 days
November - 30 days
December - 31 days

Actually, now that I think about it, it could be more than that because you could have a coffee date, lunch date, dinner date, etc.

The OP needs to show his calculations.

Women only have sex with men once they feel comfortable. Do you believe that men also have the right to wait until they're comfortable?
Of course. I can't see how that could be gender specific

Which begs the point: Yeah, sure, she might wait for 3 months for him. That doesn't mean she won't be getting it elsewhere! Ah ha! Foot's on the other hand, now...

(Though one would have to wonder about the manipulativeness of his own "approach," what with thinking that 13 dates at McD's shows anything but a complete disregard for her health as well as his. That right there would drive anyone who takes reasonable care of herself away.)

The same reason a great man would walk away from a woman just because she wants to wait.

[it's supposed to be a relationship not a bus schedule]

Odd thread. Argumentative. Bunch of new posters starting a fight. Oddly centering on Dew.

Fail.

Whatever works for you and your partner. I think it's better to just play things by ear since different people will make for different relationships.

My friend dated her boyfriend for a little over a year before they had sex. Others however, will not wait that long. But, apparently, that was fine for them-so it doesn't matter what others would do or not. It was between them.

Agreed. I propose an amendment to the rule! No sex with each other for 3 months or 13 dates. FWB, self-manipulation, porn, walking the dog, etc. during the interim is allowed.

[refining the rule]
