I'm seeing someone who is going VERY slow in the dating department, but its also holding true for the sex department. I'm not complaining about it, b/c it's actually really nice for a change, but I'm curious. Why would a guy NOT want to have sex early on? I'm sort of down for it, but he is quick to say things like "I don't have protection tonight, there's lots of other things we can do though" or he just doesn't push for it. Don't get me wrong we definitely make out and do some heavy fooling around...I guess I just haven't met someone who is not interested in having sex when it's basically being offered to them, lol. I know he's not a virgin and everything is in working order, lool, so there's not technical difficulties on his end.

 

what is going on???

 

Could it be that this guy is really REALLY into me?????

He may have ED or other sexual issues you have no knowledge of...

He may have an STD that he is getting treated that he's embarrassed to tell you about.

For some reason the first thing that comes to mind is he has herpes or something. OR he's still emotionally hung up on someone else. Maybe he has had sex early with others and wants to try waiting... hard to tell. WHy are you so quick to have sex with him anyway??

ED, - difficulty maintaining an erection counts as ED too - concerns about size, inexperience, premature ejaculation, uncertain about his feelings for you, fear of pregnancy, I mean the list goes on. Or he could just be one of those guys who's really, really uncomfortable with having sex outside of a committed relationship. It happens.

 

The real question is, why on earth have you not asked him point blank? I mean I know you probably don't want to seem like a sex crazed c*ck-hound but I'm sure you also want some answers as to what his deal is. Frankly the not knowing can often make things worse or cause your impatience to grow.

Maybe he was molested as a child and has issues? Who knows. You should ask him what's going on.

Well he is trying to avoid you getting pregnant which is a good thing the last time I checked.

wow, everyone's answers are freaking me the **** out!

 

o.k to clarify I know for a FACT that he does not have ED or any trouble getting hard or maintaining an erection. We've gone far enough for me to know that. there's really know problems down there for him.

 

ughhh getting a little scared reading everyone's answers, lol. I will just ask him next time I suppose.

I don't necessarily want to have sex with him right now. I'm actually enjoying waiting in some ways, but it's just new territory for me. I've never dated a guy who hasn't really pushed for sex and is almost as equally happy to wait as I am. It's just a bit interesting to me and I wanted to know why he might want to wait? We aren't kids either, he's 30 and I"m 29...

I didn't really know how to phrase it...and I also can't really tell if he's trying to be a gentleman or genuinely doesn't want ot have sex yet...

Why not ask him? For example, the excuse of "I don't have protection tonight" might be true... but have you suggested "you should get some for next time" ? Or, even, go and buy some condoms yourself. Or, just ask him if he wants to have sex with you. Ask him when he last got tested for STDs and what the results were while you're there (and share with him when you last got tested, too).

 

If you can't have a conversation about having sex (which I appreciate takes 2 people... not just you) then you're (collectively) not ready to have sex. Maybe he's not ready. That's fine (unless you're not prepared to accept it).

Really really into you or the opposite. I would not go so far as the STD and molestation bandwagon so quickly. If I like someone and i'm not that into them I will still go out with them. I am probably the only male that actually friend zones girls but there are so many of them and 99% of the time I do not like them like that. I always seem to go for the girl that causes me the most pain and problem and ignore the nice girls that I should be going for. Personally you should consider backing away from him as you might be just a distraction for him while he waits on another girl.

Thanks for your insight. I'm personally not sure about him either, which is why i'm pretty happy that we're not having sex yet, but I was just curious as to why a might not be as pushy for it.

 

That's fine if he's not sure about me either. I guess I'll just keep going along until I figure out whether I really like him enough to want to have sex.

the only guy i have ever come across that did this to me ended up being very confused sexually. i thought he was gay, it turned out he was bi. imo normal guys don't friendzone and wait a willing woman. there is an underlying issue.

Wow. Just because a guy isn't obsessed with sexual intercourse, he's got to be "gay", "bisexual", "have an STD" or "ED". Wow.

 

It couldn't possibly be because he wants to go slow. Of course not. Because real men want sex and they always want it now. Right?

 

Good grief...

well, she already said he wasn't a virgin and likes to make out with her, so going slow isn't his issue.

It's a simple fact of nature that most men want to get sexual as soon as possible.

 

It's also been my experience that the only guy who ever delayed sex like this turned out to have pretty significant ED issues. He would get hard while making out, but had trouble maintaining an erection during sex.

I've delayed sex like this in the past, and it was because of performance anxiety with a new woman.

But what if a guy doesn't have protection?

If he wants it to happen, he'll bring condoms or drive to the store to get them.

So a guy can never ever turn down sex without it being something wrong

How long are we talking here? The devil is in the details. If you've been dating a year, then yeah there's some kind of dysfunction taking place. If it's been a week then all this talk of ED, STD and molestation is way out of line.

There are heaps of reasons - religion, cultural upbringing, personality, etc. Contrary to popular belief, not all men jump at the offer of sex at any time from anyone, especially when you're not even in a relationship yet. Sex is a big deal for some people, regardless of gender.

 

I don't necessarily want to have sex with him right now. I'm actually enjoying waiting in some ways, but it's just new territory for me. I've never dated a guy who hasn't really pushed for sex and is almost as equally happy to wait as I am.

 

What is the problem then? I think you're looking for issues where there might not necessarily be any. It is 'possible' that he could have a STD, etc, but then again if you've not seen test results, there is an equal possibility that a guy who jumps at having sex on the first date has an STD too (and is just being irresponsible about it).
