When do you think is the "right" time to start getting physical? Not beating each other up, but the slight brush of the hand, the arm around the waist/shoulders, etc.?

[xabstruse]

hahhaa I laughed at 'not beating each other up'

it really depends how comfortable you are with it, when you're both ready then go for it (:

[JJM]

It's about being comfortable with the person and with yourself, being able to talk about sensitive and private matters, and understanding where the relationship is. It's not just I like you and you like me, so let's get physical.

Hugs and holding hands, that's fine. Kissing is only for when the relationship really is serious. Getting touchy-feely is for after engagement. Sex is for marriage only.
Guys who don't like it can just deal with it. I don't play around. lol

Everyone has a different threshold.
I say go with your feel.

[ShadowMax76]

x-X' two people who're flirty with each other ending up a couple sometimes are already touchy before the official relationship starts.

but i guess there's the traditional route. :] _ don't wanna think it's anything like Pleasantville though .. .LOl.

[mrskimjinho]

This varies from person to person, culture to culture.
Personally, I absolutely hate it when things go at a sluggish pace cus I'm the type that really loves what Koreans like to call "skinship" (physical interactions). I mean, you've gotta do something with your s/o other than just talking and staring at each other, right?

[votre-beau]

It all depends on how comfortable you are with them. =) You never want to rush into getting physical. Whenever you feel it's right, than go for it.

[chrisng]

erm..
well since you're the guy, you HAVEE to go with what shes comfortable with :\
ive dated girls , that have kissed me and even madeout with me one the FIRST date,
and others that .. well it took them about 1-2 weeks to even hold hands with me [innocence is cute <3 ]
but yeah
you have to wait till shes comfortable with it . (:

[plegend2007]

Don't force anything, just let it happen naturally.

[2cOokiees]

I would say just go with your feelings and the flow.
No pressure or anything. Just when you want to.

[natsurei]

Go with the flow. When you feel it's comfortable, and you're not questioning it.
Or if you REALLY want to do it now, find a situation. HAHA. : D that way, it'll seem natural, and you both will just get used to it.

I dunno, my boyfriend first held my hand(if that's what physical counts as) was when he walked me home. I don't know I think that situation works. O_O;; But this took me a veryy long time to get used to.

It depends from person to person then.

I think that's the problem today. A lot of kids can't discern that, and once you get physical you can't stop it because you know you like that physical touch. I say be careful even if you feel "comforable" with the other person.

I say go with your feel.

You shouldn't follow your feelings, you should lead them instead.

[jesus.shuttlesworth]

getting touchy can start as soon as your into the relationship

i get touchy with my female "friends"

getting into sex and stuff, you should probably wait a month or two

[mintcracker]

hugging, kissing, holding hands---straight away/before official relationship starts lol

sex-best after at least a month.

[iridescent]

I don't think it's so much important when you start as it is how you start. My boyfriend was ready to do all kinds of stuff right away but he kept his eyes on mine with every thing he did (even small things like holding hands) so I knew he cared whether I was comfortable. If he was less experienced than I was I know I would do the same, and I think that sense of where the other person is is far more important than how long you've been dating.

[kitakaoin131]

If you want to take things slow, then wait until the first date to hold hands. I would say after a month, arm around waist is appropriate.
If you don't to take things slow, then you can get physical anytime you want.

However if you want do it, then that is a toughy.

[screamxlove]

For me, it's just all about how comfortable you are with the other person - and how comfortable they are around you.

[JASON;]

It comes naturally i think. If you both are comfortable with it, then it shouldn't be a problem.

I wish all women would be like you. I wish all women would save the real stuff for the only one who deserves it.
