Relationship Dilemma

[TheBigUnit]

Hey guys and gals I met this really cute girl few weeks ago and we ve been talking everyday since, she's really friendly and has a great personality but she was really sheltered I think most of her life. We ve kissed and all but when it comes to other stuff she's doesn't even know what they mean. ... take for example she was clueless when I said "make out" she's open minded I think for anything but I feel real bad cuz I feel like I might be "corrupting" her, mind you I'm not some "horn-dog" or desperate so should I give her time? Or should I just go ahead and ask her if she would like to take it to the next step?

Perhaps she's not ready for "the next step". She might be afraid of all the consequences it would bring to her life. Maybe you should just stick around kissing and hugging, let her know that you really like her, and remember that "love" doesn't necessarily mean "sex".

Kissing and hugging is love. I dont think you really need to take it to another step right yet. Theres plenty of time. You're 17, if youre thinking of getting married to her, you have at least 50 years yet (if it all works out)

Talking always helps. Try to get her to see your perspective on this.

Communication is a large part of any relationship, talk to her about how quick you want to take things otherwise just attempt to go for it but stop if she reacts badly to it. Also, don't be afraid of corrupting her, she will learn it in her life sometime.

Since you're 17 I'm assuming you're not dating an 11 year old. If she doesn't know about that stuff she's probably not ready to take it any further either, you should respect that. If you want to gently explain what stuff like that means you can, but don't expect she's instantly going to say 'okay let's have sex tonight'.

fair enough thanks for the advice guys

She is very dumb. She doesn't need space. Don't ask her that bc she probably doesn't know what space is. Are you sure she even knows you're a guy, much more what a guy IS?
What you SHOULD ask her is if she understands the term RELATIONSHIP cause I don't think she will. :whoops:

You should help educate her about everything then she can decide if she is ready
