Yes, it's actually something you should discuss with your bf first, but only when YOU'RE READY!! In my opion you should wait until your married. But you shouldn't even think about having sex with him until you're sure you're ready to. If your mom gets upset you should tell her that it's your life and you really think you made the right decision. good luck!
charmed3fanatic answered Sunday April 16 2006, 3:32 pm: you should have sex when ever YOU think YOUR ready.. don't let what other people say your mom, friends, anyone, influence your life.. it's what you want to do.. if you have sex before your married it's not like your moms not going to trust you hun.. because i'm sure your mom didn't wait that long.. and if you truly want to have sex. and love the person that your with then you should go for it.. BUT!! talk to your mom about it first.. so she can at least put her input on it.. i'm sure she'll be alright with it.. as long as you let her know your going to do it [ charmed3fanatic's advice column | Ask charmed3fanatic A Question ]
Kayendall06 answered Sunday April 16 2006, 11:36 am: 5 MONTHS? That's a really short time. Whenever you feel that you are READY to have sex with him, do. Listen to what your mom says though, because she is right. =) [ Kayendall06's advice column | Ask Kayendall06 A Question ]
RealisticWench answered Sunday April 16 2006, 11:35 am: That's stupid, some people wait years before they have sex with their partners. Don't listen to the others and don't give in to peer pressure. Have sex when you're ready and comfortable, when you want to not when anyone else says you have to.
Waiting until after marriage is unrealistic and can lead to people marrying young just so they can have sex. Your mom probably just doesn't want to see you get used or for religious reasons. As long as you're in a loving, committed relationship, you're ready and you use protection there's nothing wrong with having sex before marriage. Your mom doesn't have to know about it.

If you do/are having sex, then make sure you use a condom, and if you can convince your mom to put you on birth control (say..for menstrual reasons), that's good too.
