AIBU to ask..

How many dates did you have with your DP/DH before you slept together? Is there such thing as too soon?

We kissed on the first date on Friday and I got the nice sparky feeling that I haven't had in a long long time. But I was quite tipsy so I'm wondering how much that had to do with it

8 dates. Married 18 months later, now expecting our first baby in the next few weeks (together over three years).

I wouldn't do it before 3-5 dates generally. Mainly because I don't trust people.

2nd date together going on 8years

First date here!

I've never really obsesses with just wait x amount of dates or it won't last. It doesn't work like that something either works or it doesn't

If two consenting people want to fuck each other then I don't see any problem with it

3rd date.
Although we didn't hang about, before then would have been too soon for me as I didn't feel like I knew him well enough.

A few wks. Interestingly he was the only one that ever turned into a long term partner (now dh), but I think that was just coincidence.

If you feel it, go for it, as long as you're happy and comfortable.

The night we met. If they are the one I dont think there is such thing as too soon.

Lifes short

There were no dates before we had sex. I'd been working with him for a few weeks (with zero flirting, I must say) and then we slept together after someone's leaving drinks and after that were just a couple; there was no formal dating as such. We've been together 14 years.

I've never "waited" to sleep with anyone (except my first proper boyfriend as a teenager) although I've always known them a bit through friends or work first. I don't actually like 'dating' in the formal sense.

3 years or first date depending on how you look at it.

We were good friends before it happened and we've been together ever since. 6 years

2nd date here too! I'd known him a couple of months previously to going on "proper" dates, but I absolutely 100% knew that he was "The One", we've been together 15 years, married for 11 and have DS(10).

we worked together for months before, so we knew each other. It was:
hug
proposal of marriage
first date- slept seperately
slept together a week later
moved in together a year later
Got married 3 months later.
been together 5 years.
Its the only time I've fallen in love before having sex. I'm 59. She is 54. She is the love of my life.

also- I hate dating, and we only had one real date before DTD.

After 6 days which will be 20 years ago this July!

Within hours of meeting. Been together 33 years. I felt comfortable with him from the start in a way that I never had with anyone else.

A couple of weeks before first 'proper' date

4th date, we knew each other for 6 months before dating.

After our first date, 24 years ago.

Had known each other through friends for a while. Got ridiculously drunk and slept together. Went on a series of dates over a week, knew it was right. He went away for 4 months or so, kept chatting. He came back in the Feb, we moved in together in the June and her proposed in the Oct, a year to the day of our first snog. Married 6 months later, now coming up to 8 years married with a 6 and 4 yr old. Have never been the butterflies type and still am not, but he's the one I'm meant to be married to.

Surely "too soon" is when you are not prepared to accept potential consequences of sex - a pregnancy.

First night we met. It was my intentions for it be a ONS, but. Almost 4 years later. We're still together.
There's no too soon or too long.

We waited about 6 weeks... still together 14 years later

We didn't really date. First night we met each other.

Around a year.

First date, he moved in six weeks later and we have been together for 20 years, married for 16!

First time we met. We met online and had been chatting for a few days. He was trying to be a gentleman and wait, but I wanted it
