what do you do when you feel like things are moving to fast for you? I met this guy in the park. we spoke about many things, we went for a walk and after that I went home. he seemed really sweet and I was kinda happy with the fact that I accepted going out with him. the next day he calls me and to my surprise he asks me if I don;t wanna go to his place...and I said hey wait wait: we met yesterday and today he asks me to go to his place? things are moving way to fast for me.I said no. gladly he kept looking for me and we still go out but what happened was kinda weird.

Well, I think you're right to refuse. But, before assuming anything else, you could've asked that guy what he was planning on doing with you when you'll meet him in his place. It's not actually going to be bad though unless if you're in Philippines wherein kidnappers exists a lot. I don't really find it awkward, depending on the subjects you were both talking about or how deep it was. I'm happy that you've met a companion.

Sometimes it all happens of a sudden we hardly have any time to realise what is happening. We wait for so long and all of a sudden we get into so many things relations and we start feeling good also. We often learn lot of things from any type of relation.

When things are moving too fast, it's time to take a breather. if you don't slow down, you may find yourself in a situation that you can't stop. It can end up causing you more trouble than you want. there is nothing wrong with taking a relationship slowly. Sometimes it's the only way for it to move forward.

Hmm that is just honestly a bit too fast. Maybe he thought that you were a fast and easy girl then but glad that you said no and reminded him that you two only met the day before. I would definitely have said the same thing if it was happening to me, but I'm not sure if I will still go out with that guy. I'm happy that he respected your opinion somehow. Have a nice day

i think you made the right choice. we should get to know someone really well before we go out with them. this is especially true if the guy wants you to go to his place! we have to make them know this from the beginning. if they stay, great then they really like and respect you. if they leave, good riddance. be safe and not in a hurry.

Hello swissheart, I think it is really fast and you have a good decision that you saying no for it. It is better to know him better first to avoid in bad situation. There are a lot of accident because of that situation just be careful always. Have a nice day.

i wouldnt want things to go that fast. that was what i thought before i met my man. IT happened on our second date and it sort of weirded me out. it made me feel bad after we did but since i like the guy a lot, i never made so much drama of it after i spoke to him about it. i told him what i felt about how things went and we compromised halfway with our beliefs. i came from a conservative family and he was able to adapt more of the western culture since he lived in another country since his younger years. i guess apart from culture, men's genes play a major factor. no matter how much they keep it to themselves, at some point their wanting to sleep with a girl will be revealed. there's just a varying technique as to how guys go about it and i must say, the guy you met is a bit too fast. after giving it a thought, what i did made me happy and its what i want. i may sound different from how others would normally react but thats how it really goes. we have been together since and it has gone far the whole sleeping with each other is too early thing. it all depends on how you deal with it and as long as you know how to take care of yourself then you couldnt go wrong. if you cant handle and you have a lot of issues about it, might as well not consider the thought.

Some guys can't really wait for a perfect time. Honestly, my boyfriend and I have gone the fast pace motion of dating and courtship. I met him on our previous office. We don't get to go out and talk that much because I do client field works while he stays on our headquarters. I really cannot remember how we were pulled together but all I know is that we share the same faith. I met him October 2008 and we dated December of the same year. hehehe. We're still together and hoping for more years to come! Cheers!

I'm glad you turned his offer down, because you need time to stay on your side. That day in the park has gone by fast, and you've met up with him other times as well. Whats intriguing is that theres so many things that have passed, and when you see that theres things planned for the future, it feels like a roller coaster ride. It definitely would be weird if people asked me to go here or there just after a day of meeting up. Stay safe and do write often. I'm loving it.
