Description
When someone you’re dating wants to take physical intimacy slowly, how can you tell if they’re cautious or simply disinterested? Here’s how to have that conversation and find out whether there’s a pace that feels right for both of you.
Mike writes, “I’m a man 75 and have been seeing a woman 67 for three months; we’ve had 14 dates. She’s reluctant to get intimate, which to me should be happening based on my sexual experience over 13 years. Her stated reason is that she ended a prior relationship five months ago and made mistakes that she doesn’t want to repeat, such as moving the relationship along too quickly. I like everything I know about her so far and would like the relationship to deepen, but I don’t want to waste my time with somebody who is going to be healing forever. Susan I’d appreciate your advice on what to do.”
