Me and my boyfriend are starting over. He's agreed that he wants to open up to me and wants to try to get to know me again but I'm confused about how to pace it this time. How slow is too slow? How often should we talk? How often should we go out? I don't want to rush it because I know I want a relationship now, but don't want to scare him off by putting on too much pressure. How do you take it slow?

take when you feel like picking up the phone. don't force it. and if he doesn't feel like talking at that time, don't get mad.

You don't have to take it slow to begin with. You can call, go out and even talk as often as you like!!! Dont you realise communication is the key part in a relationship? You will find out more about each other when you interact more often! Just remember to give each other breathing space and i'm sure you're gonna be all right.

I would say, go out on dates. Talk on the phone a few times a week. Make him miss you. Maybe stay with him once in a while, not alot. I say this because it's not like you both haven't been together already. You both already know eachother so it's not a begining relationship. Do things to make you both happy and talk. I think going to the movies don't let one another talk to much. So try dinners, go for walks, or play games.

Don't hang out every single day. Give each other some space for alone time and time to hang out with other friends. Spend some real quality time together when you do hang out, trying to get to know each other better. There are different ways of taking it slow, but a big part of it is the romance part. Don't be so quick to makeout every time you hang out so you have more time to get to know each other. The romance can wait for later when you two really know each other and are more in love because of that.

Ensure sex is NOT a part of it. Keep balance in your life. Spend equal time with him and your friends. Include him in group outings with other couples, etc. Spend time with him and his family or you and your family. Group settings are the best way to see a person's real character. Does he get sloppy drunk with your friends? Does he flirt? Does he continue to show you the most attention and respect? How does he treat his family? How does his family interact? Etc. If you really want to take it slow, live your life. Don't make him your life.

Do disk cleanup and defrag (in homestead windows). Delete each little thing you do no longer prefer or use, or keep it on a reminiscence stick.. Then defrag returned. except you have a fix disk (you will convey it returned to it particularly is unique state and lose all your data), or a homestead windows disk the place you are able to maintain present data you're caught. extra suitable reminiscence is the main in all threat thank you to improve velocity, yet rather you're able to tidy up first in the previous spending.

Let it happen naturally. How much time to talk, go out, etc. doesn't matter as long as u guys do & have "real conversations", if it feels right to do certain things together, follow ur heart, but also save some sweetness for later.

my cousin helped me with the same question, he said, start out talking, dont matter how much. then after a week, progress to a kiss on the cheek, then after a lil while longer, a kiss on the mouth, and stay there for a while till you both feel comfortable. resist temptation. sit and talk about whatever. dreams, movies, thoughts on the silliest thing, anything to keep conversations going. goodluck.

I don't like taking things slow, it's not worth it, only in sexual things I try to go slow, and that's easy

get over it. if it didn't work the first time, it wont this time either. by saying that he wants to start over again with you, it just means that he couldn't find anyone else, and he still needs you to have sex with. saying he wants to start over is just his way of making you think its somehow meaningful and a way of making sex sound important.
