Went to second base on the first date?

Things got a little out of hand. I had a great date, and I usually end it with a kiss but we got a little carried away and were making out for quite a while. I want the guy to know that I'm not just looking for a hook-up. How do I show him I'm girlfriend material or is it too late?

  • Yeah, it's really not a big deal, just keep trying to connect on a personal level... Doing activities and dating doesn't lead to sex unless you want it to. Stick to your boundaries and interact on a mental level, and if you don't connect with him, maybe it is just a physical attraction- in that case you might want to keep looking for a better match, because you can't change a guy into someone you like just by wishing you had a better connection.

    I've had sex on the first date- it really doesn't change how I think of a person, and sometimes it's more real and exciting to go with the attraction, but down the road you can still build a connection. It sort of confirms the attraction and makes it exciting, but guys still like to hang out, talk and do stuff too.

    Not too long ago I went out for coffee and the girl wanted to go back to my place and have sex immediately... Older women are pretty much just as horny as any 21 year old guy, it's crazy.

    You're probably hot and really turn him on, can you blame him? If you think all the guy wants is sex, though, that can make a girl feel mistreated and you might just want to take it all slow and focus on the dating, and you'll know before long if he can respect that.

  • Just relax and be happy that the two of you got along so good together on your first date. It sounds like both of you spontaneously couldn't resist each other. That's a good sign which I say makes you better girlfriend material for him just as he's become better boyfriend material for you. It's good when couples click and connect like that like that right off when least expected. You show him you're girlfriend material by just being who you are and by being respectful of him and making sure he knows you like him for who he is. Start by showing interest in the things he likes and does, and you want to expect that from him also so that it doesn't just become some sexual relationship. It's definitely not too late to show your interest in him. It's actually the beginning, and your first date was just a very good introduction. Start setting the tone of girlfriend material on your second date, and when the right time comes, don't hesitate to let him know you're not a hook-up girl. Good luck!

  • If things got too hot between you that's a good thing. Just because you let him get to second base- or even go all the way- doesn't mean you're not girlfriend material. He'll come back to you if you have great chemistry, and if you make it clear that you want to hang out outside of bed it should be clear that you're looking for a relationship.

  • You didn't do anything wrong and didn't mess up your chance of showing him you're girlfriend material. It sounds like you really like this guys so good luck!

  • I don't think you went too far, and it sounds like you have good chemistry which is a good thing!

  • Every date is a new beginning

    just make sure that future dates have plenty of other things to do beyond kissing

  • Not out of line at all and you didn't mess up anything with him.

  • Are you really 18-24?

    I've never heard a guy express going to second base on the first date made a girl look easy. At least not since I was about 13.

    Relax. As long as you keep having dates (NOT just hanging out at each others' places), don't worry. That doesn't mean never at each others' places, just its not ONLY that. Don't try to slam the brakes on, just try to let other aspects catch up to the physical.

  • if next time things start going to far or further than you want just explain... I like you a lot and so things went a bit further than I usually go on a first date. Is it OK if we slow the physical stuff down a bit?

  • The other replies are all good but... well... there's this rule book and it clearly states that you never allow the guy to progress past first base just because the two of you enjoyed a first date. I'm really surprised that the umpire didn't call foul or something.

    LOL

    Relax, you should look at this as a good thing. You know that you have enough in common to enjoy a first date and that there is physical chemistry also. Of course, if you end up having his twins on the second date, that might be a bit too much for a really healthy relationship but, otherwise, enjoy life.

  • Of course its not too late. Most relationships I know of started with sex then hanging out and going places together came afterwards.

  • One date. You should not worry. You call the shots.

    Hope it works out for you. There is no universal guidebook or manual for this sort of thing. Go at your own pace and do not overstep the limits you set.

  • there is nothing wrong with that,

    it doesn't depend giving to soon or to late that I choose a gf

    it depends on getting along well

    • Thank you, this makes me feel better.

    • don't worry yourself for nothing. Sense humor, talking, common interest, are much important I am glad I help you :)

  • I think that if you slow down a little on the next date he will know you aren't just a hook up

  • just try to not worry about it

  • You probably can't go backwards but you shouldn't advance. Your charms are not a right or obligation. Let him earn them by being respectful and bringing his interests and activities into the relationship. No matter how the hormones rage, sex should never be at the core of a good relationship.
