Shagging on the first date

Works for some. I have friends who are happily married now, with 2 lovely kids, who shagged about an hour after meeting each other. So there. *



*This post was inspired by the latest on Todger Talk, which sort of advocates playing hard to get.

Was ChildOne born 9 months and 1 hour after they met? :)

I think as with everything the real answer is, it depends. Everyone one is different and every relationship is different.

some relationships might work well from starting with a good shag, and some relationships might never happen because they started with a shag. And sometimes that might be good.

I think the best thing is to do what feels right at the time, and things will pan out more or less as they should.

On the other hand, what do I know.

ha ha, EM.

don't mind him, Annie, i know what you meant. i too read the TT post and thought "what balls! i'm a feminist!" (i know, that makes no sense) but all the while secretly wondered if they're right and i'm single because i'm an incorrigible floozy.

Adrian - right - though if you check out that post, one of them seems to be advocating a kind of 'The Rules' approach. (One of them is really down to earth and sensible, the other one never fails to irritate me.)

Emordino, thanks for that. Have now attempted proper punctuation *cough*

Rosie NO NO NO THEY ARE NOT RIGHT. I hate it when people get all prescriptive about relationships. As Adrian says, it takes all sorts.

I like Mr Sex (teehee!) the other one is trite and seems to think that women are from another planet...

Breezed in from random Istvanki link and felt compelled to chime in. Shagging on the first date..?

TOO LATE!

Best thing to do it shag first. If that goes well, go ahead and have a first date.

I mean, what happens if you really like someone then find the sex is terrible. How awful would it be to have to 'work on' the physical side of things.

To put it in overly contrived blokish terms, if you don't have the right fuel to put in the engine then no matter how pretty a car looks from the outside it ain't ever gonna run right!

Hi Kenski - I think that was more or less how it occurred. Reminds me of the Tall Guy, did you ever see that? Emma Thompson's nurse tells Jeff Goldblum's character 'I always like to have sex first, gets all the awkwardness out of the way.'

Em, you know what I mean. English people don't really date anyway. They just get drunk together.

Stupid dating. Boo.

I've had sex with people before I've met them.

In my mind.

I've had sex with people I've never met, Billy. In my dreams.
