I was under the inpression that sex in most forms of buddhism is supposed to be between two people who 'love' or deeply care for each other - how can you love or deeply care for someone two dates in?

I think that's interpretation rather than actual Buddhist teaching. Which is fine. But I think, and Nichiren Shonin especially taught, that rather than trying to rigidly follow a code of moral conduct, a better approach is to allow the spirit of the precepts to be embodied naturally through the deepening of one's faith.

Anyway. I don't think I've ever posted this much Buddhist stuff on here. I'm sure everyone is enthralled.

It's whatever you're most comfortable with. I was actually just starting to really explore this more casual attitude toward sexuality when I got into this relationship. You have to be careful, though, and make sure both people are on the same page; otherwise, things can get nasty. Moreso with women, I think.

It really depends, but if its someone I see a real relationship potential then I wait...I'm not one to rush sex at. all.

If it someone I'm attracted to but know it's not really going to go anywhere, I have some fun...

It's all moot thought seeing as I haven't met anyone I'm even remotely attracted to in a looong time.

Awww...I love it when guys are willing to wait...2 years is long...personal choice, or a mix of your choice and hers? And the real question is did you wait with the woman you're now married to

to wait. I have to different than other guys, just a quirk in my personality (Kinda obvious aint it?). I thought Christy was the person I would spend my life with, but we know the outcome with her don't we?

I know this may be TMI, but I made it up to Christy with a 10+ hour hump fest (I had to get up and leave for Tech School - Not a good thing to have ended ones carnal fun )

As for Deb, uh, well....She helped get me ****faced and I was all hers for the effort & takin', romantic aint it?
