Not So Fast...
My boyfriend wants to have sex but I'm not ready. What should I do?

TeensHealth: It's common in relationships for one person to want sex when the other isn't ready. So talk to your boyfriend and let him know your feelings. If he cares about you, he'll listen. And if he tries to talk you out of your feelings or convince you that you're wrong, then he may not be the right guy for you.
Let your boyfriend know what you are comfortable with and what you're not ready for. Mutual respect is the foundation of a good relationship. If your boyfriend is the understanding, caring guy you hope he is, he won't try to pressure you.
