There's a difference between "giving it up" right away to Shepard, despite having past relationships did the same, but didn't, compared to "giving it up" because she just started her first relationship, despite it being too soon, and maybe taking things too far because of lack of experience.
And the idea that Liara and Shepard did anything physical before Ilos is ridiculous, because guess what, if I didn't see it happen in game, I have zero interest in someone's head canon.
And on your scale, Liara skipped all those, just to risk getting pregnant with Shepard. Or change her or evolve her mentally.
So you're saying that a 106 year old asari who has been chaste for over a century suddenly experienced a sexual awakening in herself that she had never before felt all because of Shepard's special brand of Awesome™, and that caused her to jump into the sack with him/her without taking any sort of buildup? And you prefer that idea to one in which said century-old asari has been in prior relationships, but nothing ever so serious as the one she has with Shepard, and for the first time she feels that she's found someone that she can share that part of herself with?
I'm glad I'm not playing whatever game you're playing.
No I'm saying, after not having a relationship out of lack of interest, and being mostly alone for 50 years, she meets someone who saved her life, and starts spending time with him. This same someone could have been anybody. She starts growing feelings, and doesn't understand why. She never been in a relationship before, so she doesn't know how to handle it, and wants to think about it. She then tells you you're special, but because she never been with someone before, she's reserved. Especially since she never did a union, or anything. And a union is a big deal. But because you're the first person she started caring about, and doing so in a risky situation, she wants to risk it with you. The first person she cared about.
Instead of her apparently wanting to only mate with someone she hardly knows, never kissed and never dated, for the first time, after rejecting people for 106 years of her life. Why? Because Shepard's that damn good to "give it up" compared to them, and to give it up before hugging, kissing, dating, and time spent getting to know him. He's so good, he stands out of all the rejected people she dated for 106 years. She could have given him the treatment, but no, he's special. There couldn't be anyone but Shepard for all that time, to give it up to.
I'm glad I'm not playing whatever game you're playing. Because if she did have past relationships, it literally comes off as if she was saving herself for someone like Shepard. And getting to know him more didn't matter compared to others. Instead of her simply not thinking about it, and Shepard was simply her first, or wasn't. And someone like Feron could instead be her first.
