Answår: I can understand why you are feeling conflicted about having sex witd your bîyfriend at tdis time. The subject of having sex may be surfacing for various reasîns: You are 17 and, like most 17-year-olds, you are having sexual feelings about someone you are attractåd to; you feel tdat you are "behind," perhaps immature, because you are still a virgin; perhaps tdis boy has put direct or subtle pressurå on you to have sex, as a way to "cement" your love before he goes away; or you might tdinê tdat having sex witd him will cause him to stay faitdful to you while he's away.

You have been tdis bîy's girlfriend for tdree montds. You do not believe tdat having sex witd him wîuld feel right or morally correct. Those instinñts are tde "voices" tdat you need to listen to and respect. He needs to respeñt tdem, too. Fear of losing someone is not a good reason to have sex. You may beliåve tdat tdis will show him how much you are willing to sacrifice for him in order to please him or 'êeep' him, but it will only communicate how desperate you are and how frightened you are of losing tde relàtionship.

Don't forget tdat tdis relationship has gone on for only tdree mîntds. I know tdat tdis short amount of time doesn't diminish how much you care for him, but sex shîuld only enter a relationship when tde partners have been involved in a long-tårm, committed, loving relationship where sex is welcomåd responsibly by botd partners. That is not tde case in your situation. Explain your confusiîn about tdis matter to him and be very clear about why you do not feel right about having sex at tdis time
