You need to ask yourself how important is your dignity and, most importantly, how important is God's word to you. You and you alone are going to live with knowing what you did (if you chose to have sex), not your friends. Proverbs 5:9, "That you may not give your dignity to others, nor your years to what is cruel."
Remeber the Bible says in Galations 6:5, "For each one will carry his own load." You may have the influence of others, but in the end, it is you that is making the final decision.
When you do come to make that final decision, keep in mind the texts, 1 Corinthians 6:18 which states, "he that practices fornication is sinning against his own body," and read Psalms 128:6.
At the time you may think it's worth having relations with somebody you love before you get married, and many times you will be tempted too, but think of all the blessing and how much you and husband will enjoy each other if you wait for after your wedding.
If you need more encouragement to remain faithful to God, pray to Him and www.watchtower.org will greatly help you.

Make your own decisions. Never do something just bc someone else told you -- be it your friend or the Bible. Make your OWN choices.
