deciding on the pill

Reina

So ive been debating for the longest time on whether or not i should go on the pill my bf and currently just do the pull out method which i know isnt completly safe and we definitely dont want kids hes pretty good at it tho we've only had an "accident" once kinda but it was cuz we were both drunk and we werent sure if he pulled out in time and i immediately took plan b i think its probably time for me to get on some sort of actual birth control but Ive heard so many stories from friends about how the pill has fucked their bodies up im scared of gaining more weight or getting bad acne or it affecting my body in any negative way...any advice?
