I’m starting the process to consider dating again and find the idea of getting to know someone first to be sexier than bed-hopping.

Thank you for this insight that’s typically ignored.

I LOVE the “courting process”…. the “slow burn” is delicious…. succulent. I LOVE it, and has led to a much deeper satisfaction with, and appreciation of, the lady I’m with for awhile. Even if we part ways before we have ever gotten to the “delayed gratification”, somehow, I… we…. don’t seem to have missed that so much, because we’ve actually enjoyed the “courting process” and getting to really KNOW each other. I have made some lasting friendships, rather than “former girlfriends” that were nothing more than a one-night-stand, or a weekend-stand. There is something in that courting process, DATING, that is so very enjoyable and satisfying. I highly recommend it.
