Hi I'm Dee. I'm 23 and married. I've worked in health care as well as office settings but am now a home-maker. I'm knowledgeable in a variety of subjects but don't mind doing a little research if asked about something I don't know about. Most of my friends come to me for advice. I read several advice columns and would like to help you also. I'm not judgemental. Your life is yours to live it as you choose. I believe asking for advice is good, but ultimately the choice is yours. You WILL NOT find a hurtful or smartass answer here.
If you have a question that you would like to keep private, you can email me and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

It sounds like you have a great relationship with your mom. I wish I could say the same about mine. Anyway, I would sit down with her and calmly tell her that you've been seeing someone and you've decided to take the step into a more intimate relationship. Tell her you wanted to let her know because of your agreement and also to get set up with birth control. She'll probably be surprised, but I think she'll respect the fact that you were honest about it and also that you are making an effort to protect yourself.
A couple things to remember about birth control. It's not 100% effective and it doesn't protect against STDs. Even if you go on the pill (or whatever), I would highly recommend using condoms as well to protect yourself.
(Rating: 5) thanks that will help.
