How do you know if your ready to have sex?

Answer 1

When you are ready to have a baby is when you are ready to have sex. Sounds harsh, yes, but ANY TIME you have sex, there is a possibility of having a child! So if you feel that you could handle the responsibility of getting pregnant or getting someone pregnant, then go ahead.

Remember this about sex; we are given the ability long before we are given the capacity to handle the ramifications.

Ideally a person should know the other person so well that nothing embarrasses you. You are mature enough to handle all the baggage that goes along with sex, because there is a lot.

Television glorifies sex in a way that takes the beauty of two people engaging in an adult fashion. That is too bad, because so many people believe that sex is free and easy, and just for fun. Its not, its so much more. When you are in a stable relationship, sex can be the most amazing thing you will ever experience. However, you start too early or have too many partners, you lose something of yourself that can't be recovered.

Be smart and wait until after high school, at the very least. Know the person well and be smart about it. Sex isn't a cure.

Answer 2

Emotionally, you should be in love and the other person should be in love with you,,, it's safer this way. You need to know all risks involved and what protection to use. You should be mature enough to talk about it with your partner and a Doctor and be able to take care of a baby if the protectin doesnt work

Physically you're ready when your body has gone through the changes of puberty

Answer 3

You'll know that you're ready wen your man is serious, walks you down the aisle and says i do. if he aint gonna last long i dont see the point in losing it anyway, only to move on and get ready to sex another guy that you might think is the one (i aint implying anything bab about you).
However, if you do decide not to listen to a wise piece of advice just be careful, but remember dont do it coz its a trend or coz you want him to stay coz thats a waste of time and space..............

Answer 4

You'll know when it's right. Please make sure you use protection. You don't want your first time to turn into your worst time. And realize it won't be so great the first time. It takes a while to get the hang of things and feel comfortable with yourself and your partner.

I would also suggest you wait as long as you can. Looking back I wish I had waited longer.

Answer 5

You know when you are 18 years or older, and have considered all the consequences....and if you are emotionally, monetarily ready to deal with HPV, HIV, AIDS, STD's, Pregnancy, crab lice.

I lost my virginity at 16....first, it was a ridiculous experience. Not worth it. Second, I really regretted wasting such an important experience on a relationship where there really was no love at all.

You'll feel it. You'll feel loose, but when in that moment think about how it will affect your future and if you want something serious with that person then try to save it till marraige, its always the best.
