Preparing for the first time

Haley

I feel like I’m ready to have sex for the first time. I’m 15 and my boyfriend is 16 and he’s my first boyfriend, all my firsts have been with him. We’ve been dating for almost 3 months, but we’ve been friends for 2 1/2 years. I love him and he hasn’t pressured me to do literally anything he’s been very patient, respectful and understandable with me and my choices. I’m talking to my mom about getting on birth control and I feel like I’m ready to have sex. I don’t feel pressured to have sex with him for any reason, I actually want to have sex. I know there’s going to be people who say to wait until I’m older or just to wait to make sure, but I’m taking all the precautions necessary and I feel as if I’m pretty mature, and I know all the outcomes of sex and I’m prepared for them. And most importantly I’m ready and I want to. Any tips or stories of your first time? Things you wish you knew? How to prepare? Any advice at all you have for me, I will take in to consideration and appreciate.
