A girl having sex with a guy within just a few days of meeting him is like a guy showering a girl with expensive, luxurious gifts within just a few days of meeting her.

If not looking for a meaningful relationship, the recipient will happily take advantage of the scenario. However, if looking for something meaningful, the recipient views the giver as desperate.

It's a fact of human nature that applies to all genders of all ages: Something doesn't hold much value, unless it's earned.

Guys, take the time to really get to know a girl before you start taking her out on really expensive dates and trips. Girls, take the time to really get to know a guy before you give him the most valuable gift of all - YOU!
