Expert Answer

There is no concrete answer here, but if you enjoy your time together, there are no red flags, and you're committing to building a relationship with them, there's no reason to sit on your hands. Sit down with your partner and ask them how they feel about the subject. If the two of you are on the same page, go for it!

Question

What if I'm in the early stages of a relationship and I want to take that next step?

Community Answer

Honestly, if you both are comfortable and want to take the next step, then take it. If you're not sure where you guys are at, try to discuss it with the other person. If you've only been on 1-2 dates, though, it might be best to wait a bit longer.

You could try making a few moves to see if he is receptive, such as giving a flirtatious compliment or directly asking him if he feels the same way.
