When do you take your new relationship to the next level? How long to wait before sex for the first time? As a relationship coach, I am asked this question frequently. Chemistry is a wonderful thing; it is important in a relationship. Sometimes it is present from the first time your eyes meet and sometimes it takes time to develop. Either way, the decision to act on that chemistry is an important one. How do you know when it is time to have sex? I am sure you have heard of the 3-date rule or maybe the 5-date rule. Is there a magic number that tells you when it is time?
I wrote an article recently for How do I date, answering this question. Do you follow the 3 date rule or the 5 date rule? Read my article to find out.
