You also might want to speed things up in a way that they don't want.

So someone says they're not ready for a relationship.
voice-verified
They say they just want to be exclusive rather than calling you their girlfriend.
voice-verified
If that is not the pace you want, do not go along with it.

And I'm not saying you force them into it.

voice-verified
So slowing down is about protecting all of that, not just your sex life.
voice-verified
It's about protecting your energy and protecting what you actually want to give people before they've proven to you that they would even go close to giving you the equivalent.
voice-verified
Number five was that I started taking people at their word.
