    i've been going out with this boy will for 2 months and i feel really strongly towards him. I actually love him. and we really want to sleep together but about 5 years ago i made this promise to my best friend and myself that i wouldn't sleep with anyone until i'd been going out with them for at least 6 months so that i wouldn't make a stupid decision and get hurt. this is the first time i've ever came close to deciding to break this promise and i really want to...so my question is...are some promises made to be broken?...this might sound like a dumb thing to need advice on but my friends are no help at all...

    well if you trust this guy not to hurt you then go for it. youre friend should understand. its only sex so long as it doesnt get ya pregnant it doesnt really mean anything

    even though you feel this strongly about him, do you honestly, truly think that you two will be together for a year or so? do you think the relationship with him is worth the relationship with your friend?
    and if you do decide to sleep with him, remember that it will make it that much harder when you two break up.
    do you think he's only going out with you to get some? if you've already asked yourself these questions and REALLY thought about it...
    go with your heart

    personnally i think that sex is just a small part of a relationship. you can easily have a perfectly good relationship with someone without ever having sex.
    in my opinion a relationship is about having fun together, taking time to get to know one another, having someone to share your feelings with, making one another as happy as you can, being there for one another through the good and the bad times.

    Ele is right.. You can have an amazing relationship with someone without having sex (believe me, I'm speaking from experience). But when you do have sex, sometimes things change. Some relationships are broken after they have sex because they weren't quite ready, or because all one of them wanted was alittle action. I'm sure there are other reasons, but sometimes sex is the reason relationships get confusing... I know, it sounds silly now, but it's true... You have to really be ready, really like (preferably love...but sometimes that's just not the case) the person, and have alot of respect for them and yourself. Good luck with everything.

    only have sex if you feel like if you look down the rode 20 years from now, are u going to regret having sex so soon and wish u had kept ur promise. and i agree that ur friends should understand ur decision. they should want u to be happy and do what's right for you, if they don't feel that way, they are not good friends.
