Physical doesn't just mean sex.
You can show a man that you dig him in other ways. Nobody gets mad at a kiss.
Physical closeness. Holding his arm when you're walking. Sitting in his lap, etc.
But let's be real, it shouldn't take months on end for a grown adult to decide if they're ready for sex.
And when it happens, and it's a positive experience, that isn't a license to let your emotions throw your behavior out of whack.
Too many women destroy potential relationships by displaying obsessive and possessive behavior after sex.
Then they blame the end of the relationship on the sex itself.
With the assumption that she's emotionally stable, IMO, 6-8 weeks is the maximum I'm willing to wait if it's a woman I'm really diggin as a person.
After that, I'll assume that she's not feeling me or there's some other issue and I'll move on.
If I don't find her relationship worthy, I'm not going to press her to smash.
The ball is in her court and she'll only have 2-3 weeks maximum to make it be whatever it's gonna be.
