I have been seeing a great guy for a few months and everything seems to be going well apart from one thing - he doesn't seem to want to be physically intimate with me. Are there men like this, or is there something wrong? Should i break up with him?

AngelofLove agony auntPerhaps he does want to take it slow. Initiate making out and give him the "go ahead" that he needs. See what happens, if no joy then you need to bring the subject up and find out why does he not want to be intimate.

It is now or never.

good luck x

A male reader, Blue Rat United Kingdom +, writes (15 January 2007):

He could just have a very low libido - some people do. But it is certainly unusual for a guy to be so backwards in coming forwards. There could be any number of reasons - religious beliefs, bad past experience(s), a medical problem or something that causes him severe embarrassment in a sexual situation, a past relationship or recent break-up. Impossible or anyone to advise as we don't know anywhere near enough, but certainly you should talk to him about it and find out why he doesn't want to be intimate.

Lilly223 agony auntGeez, this is a difficult one. As far as my experiences have ever gone, no most guys DON'T wait a few months before approaching you... ever heard of the three date rule? On one hand it sounds like this guy is being a real gentleman and not pushing the sex issue, and waiting for the time to be right. But then, since you are both adults, it would seem that he would be interested in a sexual relationship, especially since everything is going well otherwise. So we need more information to give you an answer.

What were his past relationships like? Is he very religious? Is he insecure about something? Is he dating more women than just you? Have YOU approached him? Is there any kind of sexual activity going on at all? Kissing etc? Or a simple handshake at the door? Is he or was he married? Has he recently broken things off with another woman?

Get back to us with more info, please.
