advice
My boyfriend and I are thinking about having sex. But before I act on this thought, I want to hear some personal experiences. Have you ever had sex? if the answer is no, then why haven't you? Is it because of religion, personal beliefs, morals, etc? But if you have, then What happened? Why did you decide to participate in sex? Do you regret it? I'm asking these questions because I want to know what everyday people think about this, because once its gone i can never get it back.
It's not about losing your virginity and if he's the right guy or not. It's about whether you really need to do it, which you don't. At this point in your life it's not worth the risks. You and your boyfriend can still make each other feel good sexually without going all the way. Intercourse is unnecessary! You can and should bond on a sexual level, just not through intercourse. Sex isn't something to be impulsive about as a teenager. Even though you feel very close to your boyfriend, who knows what will happen within the next year. Teenage relationships tend to feel really good, but be very unstable and not last for very long. Teenagers have a hard time with sex, love, and relationships because they haven't fully matured emotionally yet. I'm not saying you're immature or anything, you're actually being quite mature about this. Even so, it's a fact that people continue to mature emotionally throughout their teenage years. It's easy to mix up your feelings, but lust and love are two entirely different things. Don't have sex just because you're in love or you're ready, those aren't good reasons. Wait until you're older so that you can fully appreciate and understand the experience! I'm 21/f. My fiance and I have been together for 3 years and have still not had sex. There really is no point for us to risk pregnancy when there are other sexual things we can do for each other. Sex at a young age is more trouble than it's worth. I'm not saying you need to wait until you get married like I am doing, but at least wait until you're out of high school. You will be glad that you did. I recommend that you check out this website to help with your decision.
