Curious to know whether my views on sex and dating have been warped by the horrible experiences I've had with OD, where nearly every bloke seems to expect sex within the first couple of dates.
Have met a lovely, older man. And he's a hottie. Lucky me. He is early 50s, I am late 30s. We've been out 5 times. I made it clear at the start that I wanted more than just dinner and sex and he's been very respectful of that. In fact I get the impression that he wouldn't mind at all if I didn't want to sleep with him for ages yet. Thing is, I really do. But I don't know if his being so OK with NOT doing it means that he might think I am "easy" if I do.
Really want a proper relationship to blossom so don't want to make the move too soon, but equally don't want him to think I'm guarding my purity forever! Are expectations of how soon to sleep together different once you get to meet a proper grown-up (hard to find online), or am I overthinking this?
