LOL! I meant help point him in the right direction - I wasn't trying to offer you up or anything! I took it as a compliment!

20. I was halfway in love with a different guy, but he always had a girlfriend so I decided to do it with someone else. And then Guy #1 gets jealous. Really? Now if you ask me when was the last time, I couldn't tell you. I hope it doesn't grow back. ETA: I live in Queens

I was 18.
I was my DH's first (and only). He was 21.
Trying to figure out how to support myself and a child on $4.00 (minimum when I was in HS) was a big enough deterrent to get through HS without having sex. My parents were very vocal that they would not support me at all. As in, I'd be kicked out of the house no support.
And, while, yes I know some single moms were able to go to college with a child, again, I didn't see how I'd be able to go to classes, practice 4 hours a day, and raise a child. Particularly with no parental help and no income.
So, the best thing seemed to be to wait...

Funny how the guys who have responded were mainly in their early 20's, while most of the women were a bunch of ho-bags...err...more "precocious" on the matter.

Hey now! Just because I did it in the back of a pickup on the first date in the parking lot of a public park doesn't mean I'm a ho-bag. Oh wait- never mind. Yes yes that probably did make me a ho-bag. My bad.

Giramomma, your folks must've been of the same mindset as mine. At least my Dad. If I would've been preggers, I have no doubt he would've thrown me out of the house into the nearest snowdrift. Plus, my religious background, and 2 friends who got pregnant very young encouraged me to wait. So, I'm probably considered "old school". DH & I waited until after our wedding. I was 21.

I think I waited so long because I was such a chickenshit shy girl. I graduated high school young, stayed at home for college instead of dorming, and I never thought anyone liked me. Also, my sister's best friend had a miscarriage at 14 and that brought home the consequences early. When my sisters got pregnant a few years ago, that also took a shine off hoeing around. It's not that I'm waiting around til marriage, but I am much more cautious about who I let in my warm place.

I was way too paranoid about pregnancy to have sex in high school. Didn't make me very popular and my HS boyfriend dumped me because he was tired of waiting. If there was a guy that liked me and would have respected my wishes I never knew it. By the time I met DH I was half way thru college and getting tired of waiting. I didn't even know if I wanted to get married so sitting around saving myself for that seemed rather pointless. It's pure luck that DH ended up being the guy I married. Looking back there are a couple of guys during and after college I could have ended up with if I hadn't been with DH at the time. Hot Medical Student and I were skating on thin ice. If I had been single I would have jumped him the moment he gave the green light. I was dying to know if fantasy matched reality.

I just didn't care about shacking up when I was younger. I was into fast cars and competition quality car audio systems. Other guys worked so they could take their girlfriends out, I worked so I could buy a part to get another 15HP. While my friends were at the movies on Friday night, I was laying down a 50ft patch of rubber on some road out in the country.
It also didn't help that I grew up in a small town and 1 out of 25 people in the town were relatives.

A number of ladies here JUST said they waited because they were afraid of unplanned pregnancies. They didn't have to "handle" them because they didn't have to face them.

I got on the pill at 15. My father just about stroked out when my mother told him, but it would have been worse if he'd been a grandpa at 40.

What do you want to do? Scare Phoenix off of sex forever? We're supposed to get him laid, not traumatize him.
