Should I Give It Up To My Boyfriend Of 5 Year

I am really confused my boyfriend of 5 years wants to have sexual relations. But i dont know if i should. I keep wondering and worrying about all the negative things that could happen. What if i get pregnant or a disease. I am so scared. Well actually i am pretty afraid of doing it. Because its gonna be my first time. I need help.

How old are you? Think about everything before you do this. You are giving up what is worth billions. This is a gift. Is he worth this gift? Is he taking the time to get to know your body and not just listening with his little head? I am not saying not to have sex if this is what you want, but make sure that this is what you want. Do your homework! Get protected not just from pregnancy on your end (pill, depo etc...) but make sure he still wears a condom to protect you from diseases! Are you both ready for this? If you can`t answer that, then don`t do it! You are worth more than that. When you are ready, you won`t have to ask on a message board. God Bless.

As a teenager you will do what you want no matter what but if you are just having sex to satisfy some boy, then you are nothing more than a kid. You should wait. If you feel that this is too much, then you need to talk to your parents.

This is my opinion, if you`re that afraid and so unsure that you feel you need to ask total strangers, then you aren`t ready... I had sex before I was ready and trust me, I regret it. I think that when you aren`t scared anymore then you`re ready.... If you aren`t comfortable though, then don`t risk it... You may find that you made a mistake if you go for it... And if he loves you, he`ll respect whatever decision you make....
