Sex is very important nowadays and as mentioned, people are extremely open about engaging in sexual activity before marriage. However, when dating a person, one should be cautious before casually popping up the subject of having sex. A recent survey revealed that about 45% of all people think that one can have sex with the first person that approaches them during the course of a relationship. This percentage increases to about 55% if the person having sex has not told their partner about it. So before it happens, you should ask yourself, “How many dates before sex should I plan?”

The number of dates is dependent on a lot of factors: One of which is how long you have been dating the person and how comfortable you are with him or her. The longer the relationship, the more intimate it becomes and thus, the more time and effort that you will need to spend on intimacy.

On the other hand, if you are just starting out with a new partner: the number of dates you should wait before having sex with them depends largely on how long you have been dating them. If you have been together for less than six months, you should definitely wait at least four to six weeks before sleeping together. If you have been together for more than six months, you should wait at least six weeks.

However, what about those who have been together for a while: but want to feel more comfortable having sex with their partners? How many dates do you need to wait before jumping into the sack? To figure this out, you should consider how comfortable you feel with your partner. For example, if you feel uncomfortable going to bed with your girlfriend before you are both ready to sleep, then obviously, you should not proceed until you feel comfortable enough to go to bed together.

Of course, there is a flip side to this as well: If you are very much confident in your relationship and feel like sleeping with your partner on the first date, then you may want to wait even longer before jumping into the sack. This is especially true if you have been dating someone new for quite some time. You do not want to ruin your relationship with someone that you barely know anything about. This will also help you avoid the situation where you feel like your heart is racing a mile a minute just waiting for your turn to jump in the sack with your new partner. Just make sure that you are able to wait for a few days or a week before jumping into the sack with someone new.

Finally, the fifth date rule can be summed up by saying: that you should wait for the fifth date before jumping into the sack with your new date. This is because the fifth date is the most likely to end up in a sex session. However, if you have gone through all the fifth dates already without getting into a sex session, then maybe it is time for you to slow down and focus on building a loving relationship first. After all, love making is more fulfilling when you are doing it with someone that you care about.

Therefore, wait for the fifth date to see if he/she can give you the same satisfaction that you were expecting.
