ok so my boyfriend and i have been going out for almost 3 months, and i was kind of wondering when things are supposed to go to you know, like the next level in a relationship? I mean, he knows that i am a virgin and don't have that much experience with guys, but how would i show him that i am ready you know? and how long do people usually wait once you're in a relationship?
You're obviously pretty young, so my first inclination is "wait as long as you possibly can"
What do most people look for?
Most people want to know that they want to wake up next to this person 6 months from now. Most people want to be interested enough in the person that you want to find out how much you can do together. Most people want to know that their partner cares about them, and cares about what they think, what they want.
You two need to talk. About sex. You need to talk to him about whats going on in your head. Let him know you aren't setting dates or deadlines, but that you like him alot (or whatever applicable affection word) and that these things are on your mind. Ask him whats on his, what he thinks. Talk to him about what you both want, what you don't want. [ WittyUsernameHere's advice column | Ask WittyUsernameHere A Question ]

It just happens when you KNOW the love is their and that you feel for that person strongly enough to do it. When you feel your ready, just do it, and NO ONE can tell you how to get prepared to do it, especially because your only a virgin. You should just go on with your relationship normally and when it happens it "happens" and you'll know where to take it from there. BELIEVE ME

I definatley think that you really need to talk to your boyfriend about this because he's probably wondering the same stuff.
Its all about when you feel that you are emotionally and physically ready to have sex. If you talk to him i think that it will help you become closer with him and figure out when you both think you are ready to take your relationship to the next level.

you didn't say how old you were. Teenagers are having sex younger and younger these days. I think the amount of time that you wait before having sex is a personal choice. You should or course make sure that you are ready and have protection. If you're under the age of 16, I would probably wait a little longer that 3 months. Get to know him a little better.
However, if you are sure that you are ready, I think it would depend on your personality. If you are aggressive, I would just tell him that you are ready to take it to the next level. If on the other hand, you are a little timid as it seems. The next time the two of you are together, don't stop him like you probably do now let him proceed. He will eventually get the message. I hope I helped.
Good luck,
