What you have is something that should be given freely. If you don't feel like doing the deed, then don't. Giving into your boyfriend's "pressuring" does not guarantee love. It seems that it's more of fulfilling HIS physical need for intimacy. If you love him, you're of age and you're ready for the consequences, then let loose. If you are afraid, or not sure, and you don't feel good about it, DON'T. Remember, others might say I'm old fashioned or something, but it can wait. If your boyfriend truly loves you, he will respect you. If he didn't like your decision, then it's about time to find someone else. You only deserve the best. =) Hope this helps you decide.

DON'T DO IT... PLEASE.. HAVE YOU EVER ASK YOUR BOYFRIEND IF HE'S STILL A VIRGIN?,, AND WHY IS HE ASKING THESE FROM YOU ALWAYS EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T WANT TO DO IT...PLEASE THINK IT CAREFULLY..KNOW THE RIGHT DECISION..TRUE LOVE CAN WAIT AND WHEN TIMES COMES IT WOULD BE THE MOST UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCING YOU WILL HAVE.

Once you give away your virginity, you can't take it back. This is just a fact of life. You really need to be sure of your feelings for your boyfriend. Don't feel pressured to do something you are not ready for. If he loves you, he will understand and wait for the time to be right.

he says he loves me but is tired of waiting, that he has needs. haha. I understand that but what about mine? not to be selfish but I just don't feel like the time is yet here, so why hurry it? thats mostly our new arguement.

i really would advice you not to because being in a relationship doesn't guarantee you that he will not leave you. if you will give it then you will have nothing else to excite him about.

I'm a male. I talk to males. I know what men are like. If a man does not want to marry, and is not willing to wait for you in marriage... he does not love you. You might love him, but he's after something physical. When he finally get it, he'll find someone else. Break it off. Leave him, and find a real man.

If you're still not sure yet, don't do it. If you're completely sure and trust him then go for it. Just remember once you lose it you can't get it back.

I think you should do it especially if he's also a virgin. I waited 6 months for my girlfriend to be ready and if he waited 1 year that's very respectful of him so award him. You will probably never say ok i'm ready because it'll be first time but it's not that big of a deal. Don't be afraid, do it unless you're like under 15. Good luck

Have you discussed it to him that you are not yet ready to do it? Have you explained that you don't want it to happen just because of pressure? Just ask him if what can he do after he did that to you? I mean can he take responsibility when something happened? Just ask him the assurances that he can do it carefully without happening any possibilities.

We have talked. We talk about it alot lately. We argue about it mostly.He says he 'll be careful, that he loves me and that he wants me to prove that i love him too. Thank you for your help. happy mylotting!

It is a situation that you must handle with many tranquility, if your boyfriend loves you and respects you as woman, you have to remain calm and to allow that the things should happen naturally, it is something that you are going to remember for the rest of your life so if you are lucky to do it with the being that you love better still, but he remembers that the final decision is yours.

if your not sure it is because your bot ready, if he loves you he will not pressure you and wait, if he doesnt want to wait and oressures you he is not the one for you. dont give a precious gift away lightly you will regret it

if your boyfriend love you enough he will not ask you to prove it by giving your self to him without the sanctity of marriage. as a woman i don't understand what the reason behind it was it because of love or simply pure lust?..don't give it unless you are sure cause in the end you will be the one to suffer for the circumstances along your way maybe not becoming pregnant but to the person meant for you in the future.

Love should be made out of respect ... If He really loves you, He'll wait till you're ready. Never do it out of pressure because if it does not turn out right it will surely be a traumatic experience for you.

Just like what others have told you, If you think you're ready doing it, GO. But if there's something else that still bothers you, then DON'T. You still have a choice. If your boyfriend really loves you, he will understand whatever reasons why you're not ready yet. & if he's really a good man, he'll respect your decision. So, cheer up. There's a lot of time for that. HAPPY MYLOTTING!

There are alot of things that factor into that question..... Your age for one, readiness, months or years into relationship, do you love him or are just infatuated... These are things you need to ask yourself before sacrificing such a great gift to a man......If you have to have s*x to keep him then you need to rethink your relationship

I know, thats my main worry. I dont want to mess up our relationship over that. we ve known each other for 5 years, dating for 1. I miss our friendship more then anything. I know if we break up we won't talk at all. It'll be akward and not the same as before. Thanks and take care.

No you should not give your virginity as he is your boy friend not your husband. In my opinion people should not give there virginity very easily. You should ask him to wait if he loves you. If he loves you then surly he will understand you otherwise not.

I know, I get what your saying. Yea i've told him that and he's like " Babe I've waiting 4 years to have you and now almost a year in the relationship and your still playing hard to get" ( we were friends before dating) its not playing hard to get it's just i don't want to give it to him and then break up because if it happens he already took it. happy mylotting!

well if you dont feel ready yet then dont do it^^ but remember it has been a year already he is with you and no s e x yet you know that if he waited almost one year for you is bcs he really loves you and is normal he is being a bit stressed already bcs is a long time already^^ maybe he feels you are not attracted to him or i dont know. anyway just do it if you feel that you want to do it but i guess he really loves you or he wouldnt wait almost a year till that^^ trust him and talk with him^^ and when you feel ready do it^^
