Should I tell a guy i want a commitment before having sex?

A guy i really like wants to have sex. I am 35 and tired of making the mistake of sleeping with a man too soon, only to see him walk out on me later realizing he wasn't really that into me. I am ready for "the real thing." Should I come out and tell him I won't have sex unless we have a commitment?

    I think that would be a great idea. There is nothing unreasonable about having a commitment before sex. I would expect no less from my girl, in fact I would rather know her that well before we decide to take that step. You tell him how you feel, if he doesn't mind waiting, that is a sign of respect, but if he thinks that is outrageous, I am not so sure he is the kind of guy you want a commitment with. Good luck to you, and have a happy holidays.

    yes...you must have commitment before having sex. if that isnt involved then what is it? If he wants to have sex so soon then maybe you should think about what he's talking to you for. If he doesnt want to have a commitment before sex then you know that he isnt the right one for you.

    What difference will it make?He will probably lie to you anyhow,or maybe this time this guy will be true.Hanging the sex thing over his head is not right.

    35 yrs old and still playing games?I think its time to grow up and take charge of your own life.You decide,who,what,where,and when.This way you can only blame yourself.

    If that's how you feel then let any guy you date know that you don't get involved physically unless you're in a serious relationship.

    Then it's up to them to decide if that's acceptable or not...

    yes! If you were in his shoes, wouldnt you want someone to tell you? You have to make sure you two are looking for the same thing. Communicate!!!

    Yeah y not.. stand your ground dont give in or be afraid to speak your peace for fear of what he might say. if he cant respect you and your wishes then you know he wasnt the right one anyway.
