The scientists from Brigham Young University say, that if you want the relationship to last long, you don’t need sex on the first date. This is a bad decision. This is evidenced by the study of 11 thousand unmarried men who are in a serious relationship. They were asked to evaluate the level of satisfaction with the ability to communicate with partners and stability of relationships.

As Rosbalt informs, among couples whose relationships have lasted at least a year, people who have had sex before or during the first week of relationships, were less satisfied with their life together. They are worse when talking to each other and they don’t value steady relationships. Why such regularity existed, experts do not know.

Previous studies have refuted the claim that men are more likely to have sex on the first date then women. In today’s world, things are quite the opposite.

Now women are more comfortable making a decision to have sex on the first date. And almost half of men are not interested in a woman who would not mind having sex after first date, while only 39% of women will reject a man who makes such a proposal.
