My gf and I have been together for almost 5 months now and I feel that we should take that next step. I love her very much so, we both view sex as a very important thing in a persons live and it shouldn't be taken lightly. We talk about sex and its not really awkward when we do. I don't just want to have sex with her just to have sex. I want us to have that bond together, I don't want to rush her into anything though. I want her to be ready but I don't know what she wants and I don't know how I could really ask her that without it making her not want to have sex. Opinions and advice please?
