Hi! I hope my answer will be of help to you somehow.
Let me talk also about purity since purity and righteousness go hand in hand.
On our way to purity and righteousness the first step is true conversion. We need Christ to renew us and make us clean. 1st John 1:9 says "IF WE CONFESS OUR SINS, HE IS FAITHFUL AND JUST TO FORGIVE US OUR SINS AND TO CLEANSE US FROM ALL OUR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.
Then you need to study and meditate on the word of God. It will help you know what God requires of you &it will actually give you the guidelines to living a pure and righteous life as God wants.
Psalms119:9 "HOW CAN A YOUNG MAN KEEP HIS WAY PURE? BY LIVING ACCORDING TO YOUR WORD'' we can't really know how to live a holy life if we don't read God's word.
Prayer is another essential part that we need. As Christians God instructed us to pray always. Constant prayer of a pure and humble heart allows us to draw the strength that we require to overcome temptations and lead a pure life.
Avoid bad company. By bad company I mean avoid ungodly people who have no fear of the Lord in them. 1st Cor 15:33 "DO NOT BE DECEIVED; EVIL COMPANY CORRUPTS GOOD HABITS. Also
Psalms1:1" BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO WALKS NOT IN THE COUNSEL OF THE UNGODLY NOR STANDS IN THE PATH OF SINNERS, NOR SITS IN THE SEAT OF THE SCORNFUL; BUT HIS DELIGHT IS IN THE LAW OF THE LORD, AND IN HIS LAW HE MEDITATES DAY AND NIGHT.
A determination to sin no more. For us to obtain purity and lead a righteous life we've got to make the conscious decision to stop sinning deliberately. Obviously we can't continues to sin and excpect to lead a holy life.
Develop a pure thought line. Here again we have to delight in God's word and meditate on it. Feeding your heart and mind with God's word will make you clean and transform you inside out. As you do this you've got to be willing to "CAST DOWN ARGUMENTS AND EVERY HIGH THING THAT EXALTS ITSELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, and to BRING EVERY THOUGHT INTO CAPTIVITY TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST.2nd Cor 10:5
The devil obviously is your enemy and he'll try to discourage you from living a holy life or try to convince you that its impossible to live a holy life, just remember 1)the devil is your enemy. 2) that the devil is a liar and their is no truth whatsoever in him. And 3)God commanded us to be holy so living a holy life is very possible through the help of our God.
The devil is a liar and a misleader. So "SUBMIT YOURSELF THEREFORE TO GOD, RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU" James 4:7. Use God's word to overcome the devil.
Don't be discouraged, God said that those who seek Him dilligently shall find Him.

Are you a Christian? Do you believe in Christ?. If you can tell me that then perhaps I can give my two cents advice.

I met a guy a short time ago and we ended up making out and exchanging numbers. I found out later that he is my friends ex and that she still likes him.
He came to my house for a party and tried to hook up with me again but I said no because my friend would be angry with me. We ended up hugging/cuddling the whole night.
My friend saw us hugging and got angry. I talked to her later and she told me that I should go for it and that she didn't want to get in the way of anything. I could tell she was still angry though. She was not acting angry and our conversation was normal. She did add in that she wouldn't hang out with me and the guy together ever again though. She would with just me or just him only not together.
She also told me that he likes me and that I shouldn't hurt him or break his heart. I am undecided if I like him as a person or just the idea of having him as a boyfriend.
Should I go for it? (link)

Don't go for it. Your friend clearly still likes the guy alot. Just let it be for now, perhaps after sometime, depending on your friends attitude and feelings you can hook up with the guy. Friendships always come first. If you date this guy now things will change between you and your friend for sure. You won't be comfortable teling her about your dates, etc...etc with this guy.
Just chill for a while. Friendships first, don't be fooled by your friend's words encouraging you to go for it. Deep down she's hurting and she expects you to know that it hurts her to see you with her ex even though she says different then do the right thing by her. Her Actions speak louder than her words. Besides you don't even know if you like the guy as a person or boyfriend for sure. You might find out later that you never realy liked the guy in the first place, but things will have already changed with your friend.
Just wait a while, your friendship is far more important.

Hi my boyfriend wants to have sex but i keep telling him no we are to young and he says if i dont he will break up with me and i love him what do i do? (link)

Well then let him break up with you. What kind of guy insists on having sex, and your the girlfriend! Not even his wife geez! That guy is just selfish and using the fact that you love him alot to blackmail you into having sex with him.
Think about it for a minute, you only get to give away your virginity once in your life. I'm sure you wouldn't want to remember that you were blackmailed out of it by some selfish boyfriend.
If you feel your too young to have sex then he should respect that. Stand firm don't be pressured into something you don't want. If he dumps you, fine, you'll be heartbroken but atleast you won't be regretful and won't feel used or cheated. Other than that you'll know for sure that he never realy loved you. He values sex more than you my dear and the fact that he stooped as low as blackmail just to get it is proof enough. If he doesn't backoff you might as well break up with him first as hard as it may be. I encourage you to abstain till marriage its rewarding. Wait til marriage sex will stil be their.

I'm dating this guy. He's very sweet, smart, funny, and he notices all the little things about me. I feel like he really cares about me. I can be myself around him and we seem to have a good connection.
However, he's a little too sexual for me. We were laying in the grass for a bit and he put is hand up my shorts. I said no and pushed him away. He kept trying and I kept pushing him and threatened to get up and leave if he did so. So he kept his hand on my leg and calmed down a bit, but later he did it again. I kept saying no. And I got up and we talked about it and he said he'd stop and go as far as I wanted. But really, I want to wait. I know he likes doing dirty things, but I want to wait and see where we go in our relationship. I get the feeling he wants me for sex. I mean, we barely talk about sex, but still. He's very perverted and can't keep his hands off of me. I don't want our relationship to revolve around sex.
And something else: we've only been dating for a week or so, and he's already saying he loves me.
I still really like him but I don't know what else to do if he keeps being all over me like this. I want to stay with him. So how do I firmly tell him I don't want sex right now? (link)

This guy is bad news plain and simple. He doesn't respect your opinion or decisions and just keeps pushing you, that seems like lack of respect and selfishness. If he can't respect you or your decisions then he isn't worth your while. I Thought when people start going out they always seek to please eachother not insist on their own way. He is way too sexual and too early. I'd suggest you don't even be alone with him in a secluded area. You get the feeling he wants you for sex, then he most likely does. Trust your instincts, more often than not they are always right. Dump the guy and get somebody who atleast has the sense to respect a lady's decisions, more so the one he claims to love. Yes claims because he doesn't realy love you. Love isn't selfish and doesn't insist on its own way. Hope I helped.
