I do think it’s a bad idea, even as someone who saves sex for committed relationships.
- A lifelong commitment to a potentially disappointing physical relationship doesn’t seem like a great plan.
- Before sex, there’s a lot of incentive to present your best self. Afterwards people are a more comfortable presenting more of who they are.
- You learn a lot about someone’s priorities, self-control, receprocity, hang ups, etc.
But if it works for you, don’t let others talk you out of it.






You are 100% correct and it’s shocking that even this current headline is a massive improvement. It admits that it was israel and says what happened and who died: “Lebanese officials claim 3 dead in strike” is the kind of BS i’m used to seeing.
