I always thought that a relationship was already something of a commitment .... perhaps to different degrees dependent on the type of relationship itself .... when, and if, sex comes into play is entirely up to the people involved.

Sex is important in a relationship...it is a form of communication. What better way is there for expression between a couple of caring, committed adults to communicate? So many people forget that sex is a form of communication. I'm not saying to have sex with anyone or sex for the sake of having sex, but to look at it from a different perspective.

Hmm...ya, I gotta have it. I don't have to put the label of "commitment" on it, but I do require a mutually agreed upon "Hey, I'm not screwing anyone but you and when I wanna screw someone else, I'll let ya go first."

It's an individual decision. I've tried it without the relationship commitment and know that's not for me. Before I jump into bed, there will be some type of commitment (not talking marriage, doubt I will get married again). I guess this makes me old fashioned, but I want to know that whoever I am sleeping with isn't sleeping (or considering sleeping with) anyone that grabs his interest.

But like I said, this is an individual decisions and even that person can change their mind from time to time depending on their life at the time.

And maybe I'm old fashioned too, but I also feel this way. And sex is very important to me, but not with just anybody!!

Ladies...this BS question is getting out of hand. This is as bad as Emo stuff...


Yes, sex is a must in a relationship. It's the primal need to procreate.Some needs are stronger than others...


How many man are willing to wait until a relationship becomes a commitment before having sex?


Not me....you will have to waste someone elses time playing the hold out game. Sticking socket A into port B is not the culmanation of anything other than if you suck in bed or not. Am I suppose to base the rest of my life and happiness on that, a wet hole? You whould have to be on crack! If my "tool" fell off tomorrow, then what? Y'll keep puss as a treat, Pavlov's Dog I am not. I do good, pat me on the head, give me some?..."go away!" My emotions are far more valuable to waste. If you ask "Are you looking for a (defined) relationship?" you'll get an honest answer, because a relationship (defined) IS a commitment.


You can be GREAT in bed, but if you don't take care of yourself...Guess what? ....the same thing if we don't!

Put the emotional head games to rest ladies and move on. Drop what they tell you to do, and ask...That is the beginning of respect for you from ANY man. If he is ready, just like you are, then sex does not matter because it will be the last thing on your mind because you are having too much fun.....

...remember being kids playing football, baseball, basketball, or any other sport with the one you liked even then? Same thing....and you both STILL went home respecting each other....

Entering into a relationship is (to me anyway) already a committment, and as for waiting for sex, it will happen when it feels right, whether that's the first date or 3 months down the line....

I dont think its "a waste to wait", HOWEVER, there has got a be that sexual tension or magnatism for date #2 to happen, and date #3 for that matter.
Dont need to hit the sack for some time after the first date, but with me, theres little chance I'll wait around if that spark isn't there.
I mean, if you dont want her badly (and I'm speaking in the biblical sense here boys) why continue to hang out? I can always use more friends........
but cant see dating if you dont feel eventually you are going to get hot sweaty and stuck to some sheets at some time during the dating. And hopefully continue to do so until you're in the nursing home!
I've had great sex on the first date, and I've waited weeks and weeks....looking back, I'd have to say "when" had very little to do with "how long" the relationship lasted, eh?

It depends on the type of relationship.For me,if it's a committed.monogamous type,there darn well better be sex!Call me shallow or whatever,but if there's no sex,we're just buds.

I know there are people who can do without it and I'm well aware that there are other priorities.However,if I'mliving with a woman and I'm NOT allowed to bone any other women.I better be getting it at home.

Sex is a union of two people and for me that means there's got to be some really good connection going on before we're sack hoppin'.

And as for important to a relationship? Yes and no. Yes if it's a healthy long term thing and No because it can cloud the mind and heart to seeing what's really there.

Sex has it's own precription glasses and that can cause some very unhappy people on down the road.

Excellent post, Shell - very introspective. And I couldn't agree with you more!

As for the OP:
How many man are willing to wait until a relationship becomes a commitment before having sex?
Count me in that number! And the wait will make it all worthwhile when the time is right....all that anticipation building for so long......(geez, I hope we don't kill each other...... )

Depends on the relationship. I really need to know someone a good bit first before I will even go out unless it is understood it is just friends meeting up. I pay my own way, too if it is friends only.
And there needs to be sparks flying. No sparks, no second date, definitely no sex. And I do not lead men on by making other dates as other than friends if there are no sparks. Why? I can tell right off if there is possibilities.
A man must 'turn me on' mentally before I can be sexually aroused to them. I have seen good looking guys that say stupid crap and that attraction FLIES out the window. Geez. Got to be a meeting of the minds before I join chakras. But, yes, once it is a real relationship, the sex IS important. VERY!
