I was reading this article awhile back, and a relationship therapist said sometimes during dating women withhold sex hoping it will make the relationship more serious and cemented, when in fact men are able to form closer bonds if sex is present in the relationship. (She did not advocate jumping into bed right away, simply when the people felt ready). However, I know a lot of women hold out longer than they want to to prove they are "good girls".
According to that article it is the wrong thing to do- actually becoming intimate when both are ready to, without worrying about society's judgment on the situation cements the relationship more and makes a man feel closer to you.
Do you think that that is true? I find for myself, I have a hard time waiting very long to become intimate anyway, since sex is an important part of the relationship aspect for me, and I need to find out if I will be sexually compatible with the person...
