Is it too soon for sex?

The advice I get from male friends about dating usually follow a theme: take it slow. Time allows you to figure things out, become more comfortable, and rule people out. When it comes to sex, waiting gives you a chance to build up chemistry but how much waiting is necessary?

I know some people who hooked up on the first date and later married. This clearly won’t be the case for everyone, so it just depends on what you are seeking. If you want to give your potential romance a better chance, why not wait?

What do you think is too soon? Should you know where each other lives first? Do you get their history and details about their past? When do you know the time is right?
