Want have sex but don't know if I'm ready

Dear Snugglebug

It is natural to want to have sex. However sexual intercourse is far more than another activity. Many have had sex too early and regretted it. Of course, some have had sex when young and maintain they have no regrets, but they do not realise what they have forfeited. You only use your virginity once! Of course, 'sex' covers a wide spectrum of activity from masturbation through mutual masturbation and oral sex to sexual intercourse, but I take it you mean intercourse. Losing your virginity is a big step, and you will never see a person with whom you have sexual intercourse in the same way again. So don't feel you are missing out, for although you are obviously foregoing an experience, you are in danger of missing out on a much greater experience when you get married. While many girls have lost their virginity long before 18, many have retained it until much older, many preferring to keep it until marriage. Sexual intercourse is a bonding activity as well as a pleasurable one, and is so important in marriage.

You are wise considering whether you are ready. I advise waiting. I'm so glad I did.

I hope this is a help. and if I can help further, please let me know.
