Hi ~ First, I want to applaud you for your high morals. Seems like nowadays, everyone jumps into bed even on the first date!
I agree with Harley. Even a kiss should mean something -- I don't think they should be given out to everyone. Make sure of your feelings before you kiss him. Like you said, you don't want to lead him on.
As far as sex goes, it's MY feeling that sex should go along with love, but I'm very old-fashioned too. I don't like casual sex. I think it gives the wrong message and I also think it damages your reputation. There are also a LOT of risks in having casual sex -- such as STD's, pregnancy, etc. So make SURE you can talk to this person BEFORE having sex to make sure he's been tested for HIV, that he will use a condom, etc. You must be responsible. No, it's not very romantic to have this discussion, but it's very important and necessary. Take things slow and be sure of your feelings -- and proceed from there. You don't want to regret it later.
Best of luck and God bless. I wish you the very best. Hugs, Lee
