Last night my boyfriend and I were laying on the couch and he was fingering me and we were having a lot of fun. We've been dating about 3 months now. Last night, he told me he wanted to have sex with me, but I explained to him that he should lose his virginity to someone he loves and to someone who is very special to him. Then he told me he loved me and that was the first time he's ever said it to me. After about 20 minutes of thinking and talking, I said I loved him back but I wasnt ready for sex. I know hes the one i've fell for the hardest and I do care about him and he's wonderful, but I'm scared im not really in love with him. I know he's serious about things and he'd never lie and he always says whats on his mind, so i know he does love me. How do I tell him that i dont know if we're in love or not?
Additional info, added Friday June 30 2006, 5:13 pm: He also said he loves me with everything that he is, and that this just isnt a physical relationship. I know its not because we both talk a lot to each other, we're best friends at the same time. He also knows i'm not having sex until i'm married but i would only if i truly fell in love with someone. i think i love him, i really do but right now it's hard to tell. i'm scared i said it to him and didnt mean it. so i guess my questions are should i have sex with him next time? and how do i tell him that i dont know if we're in love or not?.

jumadel answered Saturday July 1 2006, 11:42 pm: Hi, the simple answer is no really. Basically because you don't sound very sure and if your not sure on something then you shouldn't do it. You must ask yourself:
Do I like him for his looks and what he's got?
Do I really feel the urge to have sex desperately?
If I do have sex and I know Im not sure, what could the consequences be later?
Do I know what love and lust is, and if I do which one matches how I feel towards him?
If you can clear these questions up then really it proves that you are a grown up girl because you are using what's up there first and not what feels good. Be careful and don't do anything that your not sure on. Daniel. [ jumadel's advice column | Ask jumadel A Question ]
sillyrob answered Friday June 30 2006, 10:22 pm: He only said he loved you to get you to have sex with him, as far as I can tell by your story. If he meant it, he would have said it way before any of that came up. You can either be smart and not do anything, or do it and end up writing a short story in your blog about your mistake.

xostarbrightbaby answered Friday June 30 2006, 6:47 pm: If you have alot of feelings for him and you care alot about him then you do love him. If your not ready for a very serious relationship or having sex tell him you want to take things really slow and see later on if your ready. He should respect your decision to wait. He does love you, and he wants to go on to a physical relationship now. Just let him know how you feel, he should understand. ♥ [ xostarbrightbaby's advice column | Ask xostarbrightbaby A Question ]
