Sex is one of the factors that can make or break your relationship. If you allow it too soon with the wrong guy, you will likely lose respect for yourself and the guy himself, since this is what he was after in the first place. On the other hand, if you delay him with the perfect man, you can push him to believe that you are not interested enough in taking your relationship to the next level.
After being in and out of many relationships, your ability to figure out who’s right or wrong for you can be a bit blurry. So, before you shave your legs and spread satin sheets, use the following five questions to assess your relationship’s readiness for a sexual encounter of the hot kind.
How deeply do you feel for him?
Although it’s a cliché, your feelings play a big role in your decision. Here’s the twist, though: You shouldn’t be so madly in love that you can’t see her flaws. I have been so in love in the past that I could not accept honest criticism from my friends about faults that I blindly overlooked. This, of course, leads to some serious heartbreak at the end, but that’s another story. Therefore, if they want to start enjoying each other physically, they must invest in each other emotionally and still be able to recognize each other’s faults and work through them.
Are you mentally compatible?
If you feel strongly against casual sex, you may want to assess your mental compatibility with his. After all, you are trying to take your relationship to the next level and not just end up in bed with him. So find out what his thoughts are on different topics and discover the man behind the hot body he’s thinking about during those cold and lonely nights. However, remember that this process will take some time because some sneaky guys may fake their opinions to get into your bed. So try it out intellectually often, but don’t take it into your bedroom until you’re sure your minds match.
How comfortable are you with him?
Your comfort level speaks volumes about your willingness to engage physically with your man. After all, he will see you without your makeup and “form-enhancing” clothes. Physical nudity aside, you should be ready to emotionally reveal yourself to him if you feel really comfortable with him. So with no comfort in the equation, you need to remove sex from the bed.
Does he care about your needs?
Apart from those in bed, your man must take care of your emotional and mental needs. If he satisfies both of them, he is most likely a considerate lover. However, you’ll have to be on your toes to see if he actually goes the extra mile to see you smile. Also, you’ll need a little more time for this aspect to make sure he really cares and isn’t just faking it.
How bright (or bleak) is your future?
Thinking about your near and distant future is important to go to the next level. After all, physical relationships can lead to commitment. If you can’t see him for a few months, let alone years, it might be a bad idea to try anything physical, even if it’s just to test how committed he’ll become.
Consider these questions to decide if you’re ready to be introduced to the temptress you keep hidden from the outside world.
