Yeah that does make sense, I mean its not a good feeling when you force yourself to engage in intimate activity out of fear of 'losing' them if you were to disappoint. Especially when it doesn't work out anyways and then you feel used and like you put a lot of pressure and stress on yourself for nothing.

Luckily my current relationship is nothing like that...I cannot say the same for most my past attempts though.


Good thing you are now in a relationship though. I wish you the best!

We all have made mistakes. I know I have my cringe worthy past mistakes.

"We all have made mistakes. I know I have my cringe worthy past mistakes."

My mistake goes something like, I've been dating him for 1-3 months when he tells me he sees himself with me for the long haul or marrying me. I love a happy ending and go along with it. Then 6 months and a year passes and nothing further on this topic is discussed. For me, the relationship is satisfying only far off into the future, and I'm in the relationship as if it's a limited return long-term investment. For the guy, he gets sex with no money down.
It makes me want to abstain from having sex with a guy too soon but at the same time, I don't feel like I should deprive myself if I really like the guy. I'm just more cautious about talk of commitment.

A lot of people will say, "If a guy likes you he will make it known", but honestly it takes two people to make a relationship happen.

You enjoy sex and there is nothing wrong with that. But if you feel that way about sex (as though it is something you have to give) then try discussing the issue with the guy. That will give you a good idea how he feels.
