    Sex is not about the age. Its about you and your body. You can have sex all you want as long as you are married. That's why there is a word called honeymoon. That's called self respect. Save it for your wedding day. You can fall in love as much as you can. That doesn't mean you have to have sex. And as your question. Are you willing to leave your school and take care of a child in case you become pregnant. Are will willing to be a single parent just in case. If I am wrong then Today their wounldnt have been social welfare. Can you afford a child on your own. Chect it out yourself at www.socialwelfare.com. Hope you will make a good chose in your life.

    Ok listen real close......DON'T DO IT!!!!! Do not waist something that is so precious that you will never get back on a boy who likes you, that will end up like 50 million other girls and want to do it with them. There are so much things that could happen, unwanted pregnacy, and you need to research the many diseases that you get from sex, now days you dont even have to have actual sex to get an STD, thats scary. Give that special part of you to your husband in marriage. Trust me if you do this you will regret it, both of you are too young to know what your doing anyways, SO WAIT in the end you will see that right now sex is nothing and you can live without it.

    If I were you, I wouldn't. This is why.

    You like each other a lot. Let's say you do it. Then let's say you decide you're not right for each other. Now your boy who liked you is your ex, and he knows stuff about you. A lot of stuff. Can you trust him not to tell everybody? Can you look him in the eye when you see him again? He might care about you now, but will he want some kind of revenge if things don't go his way? Is sex just ammunition for him to use later? I'm not encouraging paranoia, but having sex with someone can give him a lot of power over you. Choose someone you can trust with that kind of power, preferably someone you know will love you forever.

    There isn't a perfect age. But let me give you one hint. Don't lose it with just any guy. I don't care how many girls say sex is just sex, because it's not. Sex for most girls is an emotional step while most guys have sex because of just the physical. If you guys really like each other and want to have some kind of sexual relationship, try oral or manual! Don't take the step into such an intense sexual relationship at such a young age. You don't want to regret it. BUT! if you do have sex, make sure you are not second guessing yourself, use lube, and a condom. Please be safe. And above all be true to yourself!

    Take care

    You are too young. Being a virgin at 16 is a good thing. When you are ready and mature enough to be ready, you will know it. Do not be pressured into this sort of thing as you will have regrets afterwards. Give yourself time to mature into an adult who can make a wise decision on this. The right age is when you are emotionally ready for this big step.

    You only have ONE TIME to have the gift of your virginity. Once you lose it-it's gone forever. He is not good enough to have it. don't give it too him. Wait. Besides, he's playing you anyway-he got a girlfriend, you said? He's a jerk. Leave him alone.

    As far as when is the right time to lose your virginity...I think you decide that in most cases, but I think you should wait until you are 18 and own your own to experience life more. I say hold that virgin thing until you really are sure the guy you give it to is worthy.

    I think 16 is an ok age to start having sex (that's when I did). BUT what you want to ask yourself is if you are emotionally ready... I don't think its enough at your age to just 'like' someone. I think you should wait until you have been in a relationship for a while and are really sure he's not going to bail after you sleep together.

    Look its your body but you should at least wait until you're out on your own or until u r married. 16 is not a verry good age to loose your virginity. Good Luck and hope you make the right choice.

    no no no! you dont wanna go there he has a girlfriend and if hes not prepared to leave his chick for you,then he just wants to use you for sex. Just tell him sorry you not prepared to be with him when he has a girlfriend. As for you not knowing when to have sex... its simple if you not sure if you wanna do it then its not the right time or the right guy. Dont lose your virginity to some prick whos gonna use you just for sex like i did..

    good luck love
