I agree with you. I want to have a relationship and get to know a person before jumping into bed. For me, sex is an intimate thing. It's giving up a very personal and vunerable part of yourself and I don't give that up for just anybody. You have to respect yourself and your body. Having sex has to be somebody special and someone that I feel very connected to.

+1 . The guy I'm dating seems to be respecting of that; we both agreed that we wanted a long term relationship, not just fwb, so things are progressing slowly, but at the pace we're both comfortable with.

Contrary to the junk relationship psychology in Cosmo (and sometimes evinced on this very site), many of us guys prefer to establish emotional bonds with a woman before jumping into the sack with them. My girlfriend still can't quite make heads or tails of the fact that it was she who made the first move towards the bed. For me, and lots of men, sex is an expression of love two people share when they're in a committed relationship. It's a very intimate and personal thing to share with someone and the committment has to be there before the clothes come off.
