I am not ready to "give myself" to a man, physically or my heart. I can't do it right now.
It wouldn't be healthy for me, either.

Do what you need to do for you

Can I ask what sparked this post?

Shine, When I start to date a guy and things go well. The guy wants a relationship and sex.
I guess, I was just expressing some frustration.
I have learned not to give myself so quickly and/or easily. In most cases, it isn't healthy.

Then the guy wants to know.. Do you want a relationship with me?
I tell him.. I want to get to know you.. Know you as a person. See different sides of you in ever day situations.

Always be true to yourself.

If we are our honest selves, then we live we are doing the best we can, in all situations

If you don't want sex, then don't have sex. If you don't want a relationship, then don't be in one.
