I just lost mine 2 months ago, and I'm sixteen. Everyone seems to be telling me it's wrong and all of this bull**** but the average age people lose it is at 16. I've already had a few scares with having sex and have decided it maybe wasn't the best choice for me. What does everyone else think?

I was 15 (12 years ago now) and it was to some random on a beach around New Years. Not the best experience but I was desperate to find out what it was all about. One day I was in awe of my friends talking and the next, I understood it all. You have already lost it so there is no going back. Sometimes I regret it but it had to go to someone. I'm hardly a Christian so it was almost better than waiting and having too many nerves build up. I have made far worse decisions since then, so it's just another one of those things now. Time changes your perspective on a lot of things. True friends will respect your decisions and it's not like you made a deal with the devil. You will always remember your first time and I'm sure it will seem like a distant memory soon enough.

I lost my virginity at 14 which a lot of people consider as crazy young. I didn't do it because I wanted to grow up faster or anything like that I did it because I thought I was in love. The guy was older than me, and I did love him...even though people feel you can't grasp love blah blah blah at that age. I look back on that...2 and a half years ago...and I thought I regretted it. It was an 8 month relationship...and I don't. I don't wish I waited longer...or anything like that. I don't talk to this person anymore...and we didn't break up in the best fashion, and I don't regret it. You can lose your virginity at any age...and people are more judgmental when a person loses it at a young age. As long as your not running around giving it up to everybody...and you stay protected, you shouldn't let other peoples opinions get you down hun. If you feel you made the wrong decision, you can't dwell on it, it's done.Don't regret it because you learned from it. And if that was learning not to make the same mistake twice then so be it. Just don't feel you have to spread your legs to get a man to love you hun, it doesn't happen. 90% of the time when you have sex right away a guy thinks you've done the same thing with the guys before him and sees you as easy or a sex toy. My best wishes!

I am 16 now and lost my virginity when I was 15 (about a month before my 16th birthday). I don't disagree with losing your virginity at a 'young' age but I think it's something to have serious conversations about with friends etc. I know I made the right decision as I love the person I lost mine with as he was and still is my boyfriend.

I did it before marriage, but I ended up with an STD and then a baby at 18. I realized as I got a little older I wished I had waited for the right person because even though at the time I thought I was in love with the guy, it really was short lived and ultimately they didn't respect me and I was abusing my body. My suggestion is to wait. I know when we do things we don't think anything could go wrong, but just think of yourself rght now at your age with AIDS and that you were dying, or that you were pregnant and as most of your friends are out kicking it you have to stay home with a screaming baby, not cool..... So take it from me, the fun now is short lived. Take your time and wait.

I was 19 when I lost mine. I was glad that i waited until I felt that I was ready. Everyone is ready at different times. For my own peace of mind I am glad that I waited until I was a little older and the man I had sex with turned out that we were togeter for awhile adn we are now married for 4 years and have a little boy. I am now the age of 29. Time does go by very quickly. I suggest that you be very careful having intercourse in the future. You don't want to become pregnant at16 do you? IT' better to wait until you are abit older.

Congrats! i think it was the right choice. if you felt prepared for it, and if you thought it was just about time you did it, then it definitely is the right thing. i was 16, like you, when i lost my virginity. i never regreted it. as for scares... be careful about matters of contraception and health. i suggest condoms+spermicides, or, if you have a partner that you can trust, pills. it's ok to have sex at 16, because your body is fully developed at that age, and your pshichic is probably mature enough to cope with it. but having children at that age is a bit too early, so just be careful, ok?

I was 14 when I lost mine. I think everything we do is alearning experince. In alot of ways I wish I would;ve waited, but then again I wouldn;t have learned the stuff I did. Everything happens for a reason. The only thing is to be careful and use protection. good luck
