I don't think there's anything at all wrong with wanting your first time to be a special event, and I would encourage you to stick with that if you want that, and not to compromise. I don't think holding onto an ideal makes one "weird." Much of the pressure to lose one's virginity is simply a societal expectation, and nothing more.

lol That said, 96 might be toeing the line a little, but I don't think you're in danger of that.
