I have to do an assignment in my health class but, I'm have a little trouble doing it. I need to write 5 letter responses. I wonder anyone could help me if you can.

Question

Assignment: Healthy Decision Making -- Sexual Discussions

first question:
I don’t want to become sexually active yet, but I’m really afraid of losing my girlfriend/boyfriend. What do I do?

Answer 1

Boyfriends/girlfriends come and go. Abstinence is a one shot deal. Also, someone that is pressuring you to do something you don't want to do probably isn't a good person to be going out with.

Answer 2

Tell the partner clearly how you feel. If s/he really cares about you (rather than your body), s/he may be a little frustrated, but they should understand and respect your wishes. If not, as Dan indicates, find someone else who will respect your wishes.

Here is an article that relates tangentially:

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.
