That's most certainly not my experience.

Guys, does wait-time increase a woman's percieved value as a person? Does it change how you view her as potential future wife?
Definitely no.

You can't wait for a relationship to happen. Relationships happen because someone takes action. I've spent way to much time waiting before I understood that.

Nowadays, I'll just skip on getting close to women of the waiting kind. I can understand how you might be unsure if I am what you want (feeling is mutual), but if you're not prepared to at least give it a try, we'll never know, won't we?!

All I know is this idea of 'protecting myself' feels deeply right at this point in time. Relationships should be sacred for all people...
I don't think that elevating relationships to the sacred level is helpful. The world doesn't end when you break one and you're far better off if you're able to step into new ones (romantic or not) without hesitation. What's that saying again...

It's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all.

So darn true!
