While the premise of this thread is perhaps louche and degrading, the basic question remains a worthwhile topic: namely, given the uncertainty of communication, lacking clear signals, at what point should a man overtly reveal his sexual interest, in effect asking the woman to welcome or to reject his suit?

This is of course highly situational, but in my experience, the time-scale is around 3 months. By the passage of 3 months, one can discern if the contact is heading for what's now colloquially called the "friend zone", or if strong possibility for romantic attachment remains tenable.

There is much evidence suggesting that potential for sexual receptivity is formed very early, almost in the first impression. I am inclined to agree with this. However, actual sex, or even its casually-affectionate precursors, is a huge step, requiring substantial corroboration of one's initial sentiments - and that takes many dates, and several months.

I thought it was when you kiss and he touches your boob? The lady allows or says no.

Oh, the whole 'run my hands up your side and get some side-boob action because it's not technically touching your boob but I still kinda got to second base'? I called the dude I'm seeing out on that and we had a good laugh over it.

hahahahaha lol, do you actually believe that?

I'm pretty sure that YOU are the biggest factor in whether a girl sleeps with you or not, unless her method of deciding who to sleep with has nothing to do with the person she's sleeping with

So far, It's been about 2 months and...9 dates? with the guy I'm seeing and we haven't slept together. It will happen when it happens, if at all.
9 dates? wow, I'm going to refrain from comment.

eh, it's not really about a time limit... more like an average

...what? don't play armchair psychologist with me dude.

the post is implying the usual dynamic of heterosexual relationships, with sex being the goal(I will bet money that atleast one person is going to read this as me saying "sex is the only thing that matters"), the woman being the goalie and you being the guy with the soccer ball trying to score


ergo from a man's perspective it's usually getting the woman to sleep with you, and from the woman's perspective it's usually holding out for.... something.

Of course you'd say that, you're still a teenager, no? For me, sex has never been the goal of a relationship. The relationship is the goal of the relationship. If I don't feel like I know or trust the guy, I'm not sleeping with him until I feel the time is right. I'm picky about who I let inside my body, as I should be.

Why? Lemme guess...if you can't get the woman into bed within the first 2 dates you move on and find someone else? Yeah, I've dealt with guys like you....no thanks.

On average, close to 3 but as much as 5 real dates + multiple phone calls and texts before she says "come on already". If you say no to her after that it would be viewed as a personal insult.
