We definitely did not follow that rule, nor have I ever. DH was the first and only guy I've ever been with - didn't sleep with any other boyfriends! I don't know anyone that did either. In my circle of friends, waiting is more common. .twist. on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1443676 Sun, 23 Feb 2014 11:06:12 +0000 .twist. 1443676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ haha.

He made a face and said no. Good thing or else we wouldn't be married right now. I definitely did not put out on our third date.

It's mostly a "man" rule and they like to gloat about it if they make it. krispi on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1443539 Sun, 23 Feb 2014 09:20:50 +0000 krispi 1443539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've heard of it.

But ew, who wants to date a guy anyway who will dump you for something like that?

Dh slept in my bed after the third date but we didn't have sex then, it was more like we didn't want to say good bye even after he drove me home so we cuddled all night, haha. The only "rule" he followed was that he called me for a second date exactly 2 days after our first date. But after that everything moved pretty fast, our third date was just one week after our first illumina on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1443366 Sun, 23 Feb 2014 03:39:11 +0000 illumina 1443366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Never heard of this! But I'm glad it seems to exist because I'd have no interest in a guy who assumed he'd get laid by the 3rd date!

Sort of the make it or break it rule. I thought it was common knowledge, at least here in NYC. There was even a local cable show on a few years ago specifically about the 3rd date that followed couples on this date to see what happened. googly-eyes on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1443221 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 23:09:31 +0000 googly-eyes 1443221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Never heard of that. I've heard of the girl waiting til the third date one. I don't think people really follow either of them in real life!

DH and I waited longer than that. chopsuey on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1443058 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 20:54:54 +0000 chopsuey 1443058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Never heard of it and didn't follow it!

DH and I went out 3 times in the first week and I didn't give it up for a month. Heck it was our 3rd date before we made made out heartonastring on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1443003 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 20:12:58 +0000 heartonastring 1443003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, definitely a rule both DH and I are familiar with. Only, the way we know it is more that it's expected by the third date, but not that the guy will necessarily dump her if she doesn't.

I made him wait until like day 5 or 6. But that's the longest I've held out with a guy.... Guess it was a good thing I did!

I've never heard of it before tonight but he was telling me how lucky I am that he didn't follow it :silly: Purpledaisy on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1442982 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 19:54:18 +0000 Purpledaisy 1442982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @IRunForFun: same! babycanuck on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1442981 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 19:53:39 +0000 babycanuck 1442981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ heard of it both ways. the guy dumping after 3 and the girl waiting until 3. Hubs told me about that long after I made him wait months after months after months lol.

Sooo...that's basically the opposite! Foodnerd81 on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1442979 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 19:50:19 +0000 Foodnerd81 1442979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Oh I thought it was going to be that women held out until the third date. I'm not surprised by it but didn't know it was common knowledge. Luckily dh did it follow that rule, which is all I'll say on the matter. :) Ra on "Have you ever heard of the Three Date Rule?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-heard-of-the-three-date-rule#post-1442978 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 19:48:35 +0000 Ra 1442978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My husband just told me that as a rule of thumb most guys follow the Three Date Rule. Essentially, most guys will dump a girl if she hasn't slept with him by the third date. I've never heard of this before! He swears it is common knowledge and told me to go on my "killer bee website" so that you all can prove him right. Have I been living in a box? Is this common knowledge?
