I would definitely take the advice of the others and wait until you are ready. I lost my virginity at a young age and it has caused me so many psychological issues. Now I'm nearly 23 and still paying for it. My circumstances were a little abnormal, but had I not tried to rush into everything just to feel accepted/ fit in, i'm sure my life would be a lot better.

My sister dated her first boyfriend for 8 months before she felt comfortable losing her virginity and he was happy to wait because he loved her. When I look at both of our lives and how they have been influence by our decisions on when to lose our virginity, hers is a lot better and she is healthier sexually, psycologically and physically...Overall, she is a stronger woman than I could ever dream to be.
