Sex

[emmasi]

I'm glad so many virgins have posted in this thread . It's something that people don't really admit to much outside of religious reasons, and I was a little embarrassed to get the ball rolling, but I'm glad I did. I have had opportunities, but I do think it's a personal choice, knowing when you're ready and whether a person is "the one." Not necessarily the one you're going to spend the rest of your life with, because that's too much pressure for anyone to know (unless you do wait til marriage, which I don't think I will have the patience for), but just someone who you know you want to share that experience with. Someone at least a little bit special, even if they're just the prettiest person you think you've ever seen at the time What I'm saying is, I don't see any reason to settle for less than you want, just because you want "it." There's really no rush. I mean, if you die tomorrow, do you really think that the one thing you'll regret is not having an extremely awkward physical experience with someone you didn't particularly like that much anyway? My best chance to have sex so far was with a guy who I'd had a crush on for years, but I knew at the time that I was too immature, that it wasn't the right time or place or situation, and that he was so drunk that he was definitely going to regret it in the morning. I didn't want to be somebody's drunken regret, so I politely declined, even though I really really liked him. The time I spent with him was special enough without giving it all away. Even better, since I can look back on it with no regrets and no complications afterwards.

I'm 19, I've never had sex, or even had a girlfriend, and I'm most likely to wait until I'm in a committed relationship.

i was 16 when i lost the v-plates and im 19 now...i was drunk when it happened but it was with a guy i knew and not a complete stranger but after that the only other guy ive slept with was a boyfriend and i dont regret it at all because i think that everyone has to lose it eventually and i didnt think it was a big deal.

I don't want to say much on a public board on the topic, but, I agree 100% with emmasai.

Don't lower your own levels just for sex; and, you don't want to be someone's drunken regret either... it won't be worth it.

I was 15 and it was awkward and I did regret it. But then it just got less awkward and I started to enjoy it more and, I wouldn't say I was exactly promiscuous, but I guess I just didn't see sex as a big deal. Then I met my boyfriend and as corny as it sounds I realised how special it is with someone you really love. So I've been with him for two years and it's great. I'm not sure I'd say I regret all the people before him but a part of me wishes it was something I'd saved for him.

Well, i was 14 with my boyfriend of three years at the time. We're still together and i don't regret it one bit. I think that it made us even closer as a couple.

I havent slept with anyone yet and I am 18 so like others say wait for when you are ready. Theres no point in regretting it.

I'm not particularly bothered. It's not something I was ever interested in.

I've never seen the problem with sex before marriage. But yeah, wait until you're ready if that's what you think is best.

I'm 22 and a virgin.

I am not bisexual, I just don't believe that gender should matter if I find someone I feel comfortable with. And for a long time I have only felt comfortable around women.

I probably won't get married, so sex before marriage does not bother me.

I was 13 and drunk. She was 16 I think. She was one of the hottest girls in school.. but it was pretty much a total disaster. Though she was discreet about it afterwards. Now i'm 20.
