In a connector including a connector element to be connected to a mating connector in a predetermined direction, a ring-shaped guide member is engaged with the connector element in the predetermined direction to receive the mating connector. The guide member has a spring portion which is formed on its inner surface and is adapted to be pressed by the mating connector in a radially outward direction. The spring portion serves to stabilize the mating connector.
