I dont know what to think or do. I had seen this guy at a local gas station, smiled and waved all the time. I guess he talked with a friend of mine that worked there, and showed up at my house to see what I was up to later that night. I had to work, so he said he would try to call me,but he just moved into this new place and didn't have a phone yet. He did call that night and we talked. Saturday night he called me to see if I wanted to hang out. I went over to his place with a friend. We talk and hung out for hours. He put some romantic music on and we danced down in his basement, with all his friends upstairs. We kissed and he did ask me if I wanted to sleep over,but didn't pressure me at all. He also was very understanding when I said I didn't want too. So he made plans with me to meet up the next day. We hung out all day Sunday,he even broke plans with his friends. I haven't really talk with him since, but our work schedule conflict. I just dont know if I should.

Get to know him. Decide whether you really like him or not. Then, if you feel comfortable...
I would like to add that the longer the both of you can wait, the better. It has been my experience that, if you rush into a physical relationship with someone, your indescretion comes back to bite you in the rear sooner or later. Seriously.

It's great that this guy doesn't pressure you to have sex with him and that he understands. When you feel that you are ready, then you should have sex with him. This may not be a great idea because you just met him but it sounds like things would go great, since he is the romantic type of guy. Think about this and decide what you want to do.

dreamingkat answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 6:27 pm: You don't know if you should what? Have sex with him after having known him a week? Probably not a good idea, definitely not a good idea if w/o a condom. Continue to see him on the weekends, dance and kiss? Sure, and with all new dating partners, keep to places with other people around for the first few months. Make sure you get his phone number and meet his friends and he meets your friends, etc. You know, the normal "new dating partner" stuff. :)
jcpennypanties answered Tuesday March 1 2005, 6:22 pm: Go for it, evidentally he likes you, just dont move to fast, let things take time. And if things get to where there becoming harder to deal with (as in work conflict) just explain to him that you too have to understand how it will be if you have a relationship and that there will be times you guys cant spend time together because of work. Dont let work stand in the way that could be something great. But also dont quit your job. Just have fun and take it day by day. What do you have to lose ?
