Relationship Milestones

[ruari-explained.livejournal.com]

I've recently started to see someone new and it got me thinking. How do you decided when to advance the relationship physically (ie kissing, oral, spending the night, sex)? Do you have a set amount of time, like 3 dates before having sex for example, or does it depend on the person?

I just feel silly thinking like "Well, on Tuesday I'll do this for the first time, and then when I see him next week, we'll go to third base. If things progress well, I'll let him stay over on the 23rd..."

i keep limits in mind, sensible limits depending on my personal system and beliefs and healthy relationship boundries. but if it feels right to alter those, that's ok too. it's flexible depending on the person and situation. their maturity level and stuff is a big factor.
