Sex is a meal at a take-away: ready for consumption. No talk of preservation in fridge.

Do blowjobs count? Because yeah, if you do that for your guy most nights, he should be a happy camper.

yes of course it can as long as theres some affection like hugging getting cosy on the sofa kissing if your not having sex think is it because you have low confidence? has your partner tried iniciating sex if so and youv turned it down he may think that you dont fancy him try not to rush it and explain why you dont want sex talking about how you feel will make you closer and him feel like you can confide in him

IMHO, a long term relationship is built on emotional and physical love. In your situation, it is virtuous that you don't want to have sex (until marriage?) and ultimately your decision. If your bf is okay with it (truly), then it is his decision to do so. A relationship should be mutual, not one side giving in to his or her principles. If your bf cannot deal with waiting, then it is his choice to find someone else who can fulfill his need for BOTH the emotional and physical aspect of the relationship. In the same breath, it is your prerogative to find someone who is emotionally loving and willing to wait till whenever you're ready. I am in a similar situation, but in my case, I'm the boyfriend asking for the physical aspect of the relationship. We are discussing and have a respect for each other's stance; our relationship is about 7 months but I'm afraid that if there isn't a combination of both emotional and physical love, the relationship will not continue (unfortunately)... goog luck

yes it can. mine has for over a year because i've decided that i want to wait until marriage. my boyfriend on the other hand believes that pre-marital sex is fine and doesn't need to wait. i've told him how i feel and he told me that our love was more important than our sex and he doesn't ever pressure me to do it if i don't want to. and even though he is a completely AMAZING bf that is how it should be with every loving couple. so .....first of all. i think you should TALK to your bf about it. tell him you feel pressured.tell him he shouldn't be pressuring you if he loves you. if he loves you, he should WANT to make you happy and should be completely understanding. he shouldn't want to hurt you or force you. you both should be able to agree that he loves YOU not just the sex he has with you. ALSO. if both of you don't want to have sex it isn't as good :)

well sex is something you really need to think really hard cuz you don't want to lose it to some doushe, every relationship is different in sexual things, so you just have to think about it just talk to your partner about this really deep so you can understand each other. okay

i think they can work if you are right for eachother. I've been going out with my girlfrend for a year and 8 months now. We had sex once and that was after 14 months but we haven't since cos she's been busy with exams and its hard to find a nice place really. but i will never push her and i will wait until she is ready cos if she feels uncomfortable doing it I know she wont enjoy it so he shouldn't rush you. I'd like to know how you are now if u dont mind?? did u give in or has he waited??

preserving your virginity is good have courage to say no to your bf because we do not know if your relationship with your bf last so girl just think of if do not make a decision that can make you regret just like me I am not a virgin no more because I give it to my bf then i realized that i was wrong even though it makes him happy but for me deep inside of my self saying that I made a mistake

You should NOT be pressurised into having sex if that is not what you want. It is your body and your boyfriend should either respect your wihes or move on to someone else. You have been together for sometime proving that love, friendship and other things are much more important in a relationship. Many people are together for years without having sex. Other couples have great sex but fight like cat and dog and just dont get on. If you do feel pressurised into giving in and say yes just to make him happy or because thats what you are expected to do, you may find you will regret it later, especially if the relationship ends. You should not do things ust because others are doing it, it takes a much stronger person to say "no" than one who gives it free and easy to anyone and regrets it after or feels used or bad about themselves. Only do it when YOU are ready, the world may be a better place if more girls had respect for their bodies like you do, also there would be alot less std,s and unwanted pregnancies

You said you are very reserved about sex. Unless you have those restrictions because of religion, which I cannot understand, I recommend you to seriously think about why you don't want to have sex. Like other aspects of a relationship, it takes time for a couple to find balance in bed and you'll probably have to find it over and over again through a long lasting relationship. So if you have a steady partner, what about start working to find that balance? I'm sure you'll find a lot more happiness in your search than in the worries of abstinence. The whole purity tradition that kept women away from sexual pleasure for so many years should be forgotten like many other crazy ideas in this world.
