Frustration

Righteo, just needed to vent some fustration on relationships.

Well, my problem is that due to me not wanting the 'physical' side of a relationship I'm missing out on the emotional side that I desire. Meeting girls is an issue for me due to me liking my room (quite a bit actually) so when I do find one I "click" with I usually persue it. The last time that happened was actually pretty recent, I found the girl, got her email/myspace, msn and then finally her number. After which I decided I'd go in for the killer and started a conversation on relationships looking to ask her out after, but during the conversation I found out she wanted the physical side to feature prominently. Finding this out I asked her that if I was to ask her out would the physical side be a problem and she said sorta implied yes but half heartedly said no. Yay for that >.>! Been a week since that and we barely talk now.

And yes, I know, I want something without giving something but sigh.

Can I ask why you don't want 'the physical side' to feature prominently? And your age? It might change our advice to you, is all.

well theres no problem with that. there are others out there that feel the same.
theres no need to shy away from a relatioship purely because it may turn sexual, there can be much more to relationships.
try starting a relationship and going with it. but if they want to become sexualy involved explain your views to them. if they dont accept it; break it off and move on

So everything but sex would be fine before marriage?
