Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
"I know this sounds incredibly lame, but I don't want losing my virginity to feel like I'm losing something. I want it to feel like I'm finding something. I want sex to be amazing. I want it to be life-alteringly wonderful. And I want it to happen with someone I love. " -Sonya Sones.
I’m a virgin. I know that I will not be having sex until I find the right man for me. Don't get me wrong, I love sex and the idea of it, but this is just my personal choice and I'm not embarrassed by it. I've come so close to having sex many times, showing I've got the will power to stop myself. This is because I feel I shouldn't be losing my virginity to somebody that I'm not in love with. Some people are embarrassed of the fact they haven’t had sex yet by a certain age. To be honest, that is something you should never feel embarrassed about. Having sex is a big deal and you should do it when you’re ready and when the time is right. You should never pressure yourself into having sex if you don’t want to. So, here are 4 reasons why it’s okay to wait to have sex:
1. You're Not Ready Yet
This is pretty much common sense. You should have sex when you feel comfortable having sex, not when you think you should have sex. Everyone feels ready for this moment in their lives at different times. For some girls, it's at a young age, or for others, it's much older. Either way, you should have sex when YOU feel ready.
2. You're Sticking To Your Beliefs
Are you religious and that's why you're waiting to have sex? That's totally fine! Maybe you're even waiting until after marriage to do it. If you really believe in this religion and this is what you want to do, waiting to have sex means sticking to your beliefs, and that is always an awesome feeling.
3. "Everyone Else Is Doing It"
You know what you want; you're waiting for the right person. If that's the case, keep on waiting until you meet that person. You might feel like all of your friends are doing it or everyone you know is doing it, that doesn't mean you have to do it. It's completely fine to wait until you meet someone you truly care about to share that moment with. Don't feel pressure to do something you don't want to do just to impress other people.
4. You'll Learn There Are People Worth Waiting For
When you have a specific reason for waiting to have sex, it can also mean ruling out the people who aren't worth your time. You'll find out which guys or girls are willing to wait for you and which are only interested in one thing; sex.
So, there you have it! These are only 4 reasons why it is completely okay waiting to have sex. Yes I'm a virgin, but I’m confident about my choices. I feel like I haven’t betrayed who I am because I know what I want; honeslty, I always have and I’m willing to wait. Even though sometimes, waiting is tough. Now, I’m also waiting for the next moment that I’ll have to tell a new guy that "Yes, I’m still a virgin". This time I’ll say it proudly, without shame, and without apologizing for who I am.
Are you waiting to have sex? Why are you waiting? If you’re not waiting for a particular reason, are you embarrassed of being a virgin?
What Girls & Guys Said
24 42I love your take😊
The only problem is when religious people sometimes slut shame those who choose not to wait. Calling them sinful, bad, disgusting people. Even when the people they're talking to, or about behind their back, aren't even part of that religion. It shouldn't be any of their business.
I think waiting has its benefits. It's a great idea. I didn't wait however and I'm not ashamed of it, just like no virgin should be ashamed to wait till they are ready.
Very nice Take Maya. I like how you stay true to yourself.
thanks <3
Good for you ! I was the same way. I was a virgin but I loved the idea of sex. I lost it to someone I cared about and no regrets. I think we live on a society where people are pressured to have sex by a certain age and if they don't they are weird, prude, anti sex... etc
Good for you to sticking to your beliefs Its admirable !
thanks! :)
I have absolutely no disagreement with you.
I feel you. Kudos. I had many chances to loose it but damn I want a dick. I am 43 and no penetration. I want to do it before my pussy dries up. LOL!
You are kidding right? Lol how could you wait until 23?
@Adamlevine not kidding... it is a long story. Partly cause I was an ugly duckling who was afraid of guys. Then I joined a crazy church where sex was forbidden until marriage. No one wanted to marry me so... then I left the church. Have had many offers but don't want my first time with a jerk who just wants another tight pussy. So there it is...
Yep. And people say virginity is overrated.
It was masturbation, not willpower, that made it possible for gazillions of women to walk down the aisle with their reputation and their hymen still intact.
Thanks for reading!
they piss me off for trying hard to let others lose their V card for bullshit like that
Beautiful Take🌹
The only reason I'm a virgin is bc I can't find anyone interested enough in me. 😂
Nice Take Clarisa, i read it fluently and felt enjoy.
When it comes to answering Your questions :) :
Am i waiting to have sex?
Yes, i am waiting the right and lover man. Because i want to live this experience lovely.
Nice.
Thanks 😝
You're welcome.
All you gag virgins are missing out tbh. You don't have to be a virgin to be virtuous.
Nah, we're good. 😆
Many of us are virgins not out of choice... you honestly think I give a f*** about being virtuous? no matter how attractive you are, as a male, it is ridiculously hard/almost impossible to get sex.
@udit9191 just FYI, your last sentence in your comment is false. Sex isn't hard to get if you're hot.
Then why the hell are there so many aesthetic dudes who suck at getting chicks?
@udit9191 many reasons.. either they are losers going no where in life, creepy or weird or boring, lack personality, or actually aren't good looking.
"actually aren't good looking" yeah it fucking blows if you are that last one aye. Man I've been trying to get a chick for like 7 years now.
@udit9191 I have dated like 6-7 girls from when I was 14-16 it really isn't that hard. Just say " Hello, (your name) nice to meet you, if you don't mind would you like to go on a date sometime?" Pretty much that easy. It is all in your head. I hated dating though, I'm single because I just can't deal with the constant drama. Yeah...
Also I am a virgin and it really doesn't bother me so :P
That's good for you and all, as long as you don't condemn those who don't share your romantic view on it.
I like your take. I am waiting as well. :) It's okay to be a virgin and nothing to be ashamed of.
i find it just cool i'm a virgin myself not a lot guys are nowadays
I'm calling BS. No western woman above the age of 14 is a virgin.
I'm 15 and a virgin. You're wrong
@FallOutBoy2001 I'd hope you are. 15 is way too young. 😂
@Alexious 😂 yeah. I do have a boyfriend but neither of us are planning on doing it for a while. We do not need little kids running around before we go to college.
awesome take! :D
Thanks for reading!
I'm not ashamed to be a virgin, my girlfriend and I are waiting until
A we are both comfortable,
an B I've had a vasectomy.
Because neither of us want kids and we both have mental disorders that can be passed on genetically so we aren't the right people to bring a new soul into this world.
You can't love something you never experienced. I am sure you will love it in a loving relationship. Good sex is like a good meal, It fulls you emotionally and you enjoy it always in company of who you love.
This take... I like it.
I too am waiting, and it's nice to see others not embarrassed about it. Thank you. *bows*
