Are other people my age virgins?
i'm 18 and still a virgin. i'm definetly not ashamed of it, actually i'm kinda proud. its not like i'm ugly, actually alot of people are surprised or don't believe me that i'm still a virgin i just refuse to give my virginity to someone who doesn't deserve it and i haven't met anyone worth giving it to yet (i know i'm old fashioned but whatever). i've had a few boyfriends and definetly many opportunities but i just didn't want to. but i feel like everyone my age and even a little younger has had sex. when i hang out with certain friends thats all they talk about. i mean somethings i can contribute because i've done everything else except actual intercourse. but i just feel like i'm alone. is there anyone out there my age virgins?

Hey,
I am 18 and I am proud of being a virgin. I would never give my virginity to any guy who isn't my everything. He has to be the person who understands me, loves me for me, makes me feel good about myself, who I can relate to on every level, who makes me laugh, who warms my heart, and who would plan on holding me in his arms every night for the rest of our lives. If a guy doesn't feel this way and doesn't make me feel this way everyday... he isn't allowed my virginity.
This is definately a morale thing for me. Not just anyone deserves this. It will go to the guy who appreciates me. The guy who gives me the sweet kisses that send butterflies throughout my body. I'm positive I will know this guy when I meet him. Until then, I am content <3

I'm 20 and still a virgin. A lot of my friends are always like you're missing out.. but you can't miss out on something you haven't done.. so I'm content with my decisions. just waiting for the right person.
Hope this helps!

Yes, there are still people out there that are older and are virgins. I know people that are still virgins at 23, because they wait until marriage. Just don't let your friends' talk discourage you and never feel like your being pressured into something.
You are not alone.

tons of ppl are that are your age and its perfectly fine ...you lose it when your good and ready not when some guy wants you to.and maybe its just the certain friends your hanging out with have had it but i bet atleast one is lying and your not alone trust me

Me! I'm also 18, a virgin and proud! I've been dating my boyfriend for 11 months and we are completely content with our relationship. Like you, we've had many opportunities to have sex but, right now, it's something we're not really in a rush to get to.
I wouldn't think of myself as "old-fashioned", more like self-respectful. I definitely live by my own morals, and not everyone else's around me.
And in all honesty, I don't want to give up my virginity for just anyone, or to fit in with society. It's not me. And it might be you too. And that's perfectly normal and respected upon.
Don't be anyone else, be you :)
Hope I helped!

It's much better to remain a virgin until you feel good and ready than to regret having sex. I, along with plenty of my friends, have really regretted at least a couple of sexual encounters and it's not a nice feeling.
I've also got lots of friends who are still virgins and I'm 19. It's no big deal, people who care about that kind of stuff and use it against you aren't the kind of people you want to be spending time with.
You should be proud of yourself.

There are plenty of people just like you out there. Don't feel singled out, and don't rush it, because if you end up going on a ''I WANNA LOSE MY VIRGINITY'' quest, it just screws you up.

As someone old enough to be your grandfather my response is going to be somewhat along the lines of grandfatherly advice. I am also going to include some information that you may find useful that you might not expect to receive from some one my age. I believe in handing you the facts as I know them or have found them for you as the questions call for them. Then letting you make the proper decision.
First, you should be proud of yourself for not being forced into having sex just so you could be like everyone else. This say a lot about your values and principals.
second, You are not the only 18 year old virgin male or female. No your not old fashion, your not a prude; you have values something sorely missing in today's teenager. You have found other ways to release pent up sexual feeling that do not subject you to possible unwanted pregnancy or STDs. Let your friend talk about their sexual conquests. I'm sure you have heard your mother say something along the lines of; "just because Mary jumped off the bridge does that mean you have to also?"
The link to a website I will place at the end is something I found for questions we receive from girls who ask when do I know if I am ready for sex. I don't think that is your question. Your question is you'll know when Mr. Right comes along till then should I be embarrassed that I am a virgin. The answer to that is no.
A first sexual experienced is something that should be enjoyed, not a hurry up affair in the back seat of a car or some stolen moments trying not to get caught. This is what is so great about waiting. Your an adult now, old enough to make your own choices. When Mr. Right comes along you need to find a place that is secure, so you feel safe. A place that is comfortable, so that you both can relax and enjoy the experience. You also need to find a time and place that you won't be disturbed so that you can relax and take your time. Yes, you should already know each older and maybe you have already explored each others bodies. This is different lying in bed for the first time totally naked, knowing that you will fully complete the sex act you both need time to fully explore one another again or for the first time. Talk to each other and let each other know what feels good and what doesn't.
Most importantly is the fact that at any time if you say stop or no. No means NO! And Stop means STOP. You have the right to say so at anytime even if he is already inside you. Please remember that.
Enjoy your first experience. Until then maintain your value's you are a better person for your values.

Yes, not me but i have a friend. she's 18 years old as well and she's just like you she wants to give it to someone who she really loves and cares about and someone she knows won't take advantage of her. i'm going to be 17 i'm not a virgin but i only had sex with one person and still am, since i was 15 years and 3 days old... LOL. but you know you're above everyone who has gave it up when they weren't ready and you know maybe one day i will regret it but i made the decision that i was ready that was with my current boyfriend and i hope i will never regret i hope he will be my first and my last but only time will tell, we waited a year before we actually did it and the time that i did it was the time that i was ready and trust me when your time comes you will know, just promise me that you will fall in love before you do it and i mean IN LOVE!!! like head over heals, give my all, unconditional Love.
Good Luck

You know what...i proud of you. When i was 18, i was still a virgin,and trust me i was happy too. But then again I was doing what you was too...everything but sex. And you know what believe it or not..I know people that is older then you and are virgins.

My first was my hubby. I think it was ...maybe 2 months before my 18th b-day. Im proud of you, keep it up!

I was a virgin until a month before my 18th birthday. I lost it to my first boyfriend, who I had been friends with for 6 years at that point. Even 5 years after breaking up with him, I still love him as a good friend, so I don't regret anything.

I'm 19. Still a virgin. Probably lame, whatever.
