If you're single and over 30 why it's better to wait!

ARE you single, over 30 and looking for a loving longterm relationship? According to the latest research, the secret is not to sleep with your partner on the first date. Instead, if you wait, the chances of fulfilling your dreams and finding ‘the one’ will increase.

This research by a team at Cornell University, New York, found couples benefited from taking things slowly, as they learnt exactly how compatible they were and also when they did eventually have sex, it was better because of the wait.

“A strong sexual desire may thwart the development of other key ingredients of a healthy relationship such as commitment, mutual understanding or shared values,” the authors of the study advise.
