I never went on what I would consider dates with anyone who became my lover until at least 6-8 months into knowing them. I certainly never kissed anyone that quickly. It might make one wonder how my lovers have been that patient - but since I have had several over my lifetime and am partnered up now, it seems to have not been an entirely unsuccessful way of being. I also never set out to have being partnered up as a specific goal. That seems like an enormous amount of pressure.
