Dating Lesson #3 - Slow down

The faster it starts, the sooner it will end.

While this may not always be the case, in my experience, when you have sex with someone too quickly, all logic and judgement goes out the window.  You both get caught up in the excitement and the endorphins, and all of a sudden, you think you know someone because you've been having sex with them and texting them for three weeks straight.

You don't know this person.  You just think you know the idea you've created of this person.

Don't get me wrong, it can be fun and exciting, and it may make you think you have "so much in common" or that you have a good sense of who this person is.  But just because a guy is sending you kiss face emoji, and is telling you how great he thinks you are, does not mean he has any intention of pursuing a relationship with you.

Sex creates an illusion of a relationship, but it does not lay the foundation for one.
