Of course not. Any relationship is what you make it - what you and your 'partner' want it to be. Forget about categories like friends, boyfriends, lovers... human interactions are too complicated for such broad categories.

No, it does not. Just as one can have a sexual relationship and not have a boy or girlfriend.
Sex should occur when both people are ready and want to share that with each other. It's never a requirement...however if one party desires it and the other does not, those two are probably not a good match.

No, not necessarily. Not everyone is interested in a sexual relationship, and sometimes if two people who are not interested in that meet up, they would have a fulfilling relationship without that aspect. Rare, but it can happen.
Also, if you are young and you just are not ready for that and don't want your relationships to include that, you have every right to (and should!) say so. Many people believe that only married relationships should involve sex, so it's not like you would be highly unusual for saying your boyfriend-level relationships would not be receiving that particular "benefit."
You need to do what you are comfortable with, and you need to find someone who is comfortable letting you be yourself.

NO! It means having a friend to go places with, share laughter
and good times together. It is about growing, and nurturing a
friendship. sharing thoughts, Ideas, likes, dislikes, dreams.
It means growing a relationship, and at times putting ones
self aside for the sake of the other. In time you will know if
there is a compatibility ,or not. Take your time, and be
objective, make sure it's not a me- me-me, then I, I, I type
deal. Grow it, don't screw it!

Absolutely not! Hopefully, if you are in a positive relationship, you will both reach that point at the same time. Neither of you should push the other into something that the other is not ready for.

Of course not, sweetheart. Sex should only follow when both parties are mutually settled into the relationship and the commitment to each other. Love does not have to include sex, sex is just another way of expressing your love and desire for that special person.

No, no, no!! Nobody HAS to do anything they don't want to do. Especially with their own body and morals. That is a mistake you can never take back again. Only do the things you feel are right for YOU at the time, and don't let ANYBODY tell you otherwise.

Not at all. I have a friend who was with a gal for a couple years (yes, officially as boyfriend/girlfriend) without having sex. She wanted to wait for marriage (poor guy).

No....having a boyfriend means whatever the 2 of you want it to mean.
A "title" doesn't automatically mean anything.
