<human>: First off - hi guys! I'm a very recent lurker and I thought maybe you would be able to help me figure out a recent relationship bump I've hit.

I've always had a very active libido. My boyfriend and I have been dating for three (almost four) months, although we've known each other for three years. We're pretty into each other, and the honeymoon phase is definitely in full effect. However, there is a problem. Whenever we kiss, it seems to almost always progress into heavy make-out sessions, which turns me on. A lot. And since this is my first romantic relationship, I've never had any experience in..."controlling it", I guess. 

Yesterday, after making out, my boyfriend told me that he thought we should slow things down. I sheepishly agreed and felt quite embarrassed, despite him breaking it to me quite gently and considerably. And the worst (best?) part is, I really do agree. I'm not ready to go further with him physically, and I always feel guilty after we make out because I don't want to mislead him into thinking that I do. My mind and my body are truly not in sync.

So I've been thinking about it, and I believe that lessening the duration and intensity of our kisses might help me scale back. I plan on bringing it up the next time we see each other, which will probably be in a week or two. What do you guys think? Do you think it will help?

<bot>: My boyfriend and I want to take things slow, but I often get carried away when we kiss which makes things difficult. Would letting up on the kissing make things easier?
