My current boyfriend is 18 and still a virgin. I’m his first boyfriend and he only came out to himself last year. When we first started dating, back in December, I told him we wouldn’t do anything until he was ready.
Yesterday afternoon we were at my place making out. Things were getting really heavy so I told him I thought we should stop. He said he didn’t want to, so we didn’t. Then a few minutes later he pulls away and says “I’m ready.” It caught me completely off guard. I stopped everything and told him I didn’t think we should have sex because I don’t think that he is ready yet. He got really upset and told me that it wasn’t my place to say and that he wasn’t a kid, etc… Then he went home.
I don’t think that he is ready for a lot of reasons. 1) He just came out to his parents this month and they are taking it really hard. They’re upset and he is upset. I don’t want his ‘being ready’ to be about being angry with is parents and wanting to get back at them. 2) I don’t want him to do this just to make me happy, or to think that the longer we wait, the less interest I will have in him, or that I might leave. 3) Yesterday when he told me “I’m not a kid” it reminded me that he is young and maybe he should think about this more.
I told him to come back over Friday so that we can talk about everything, and that if after we talk, if I think he’s ready, that we can. That gives him time to think.
But how do I know if he is ready or not? And if we do have sex Friday, I am so unprepared for that. I’ve never been with a virgin. I’m not sure what to expect and I don’t want his first time to be something he regrets. I want it to be perfect for him.
