A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hi, I'm a 13 year old girl 14 in two weeks an I'm stuck in a situation because I met this boy on msn and he's really nice to me an everything. I've seen him before but the thing is he wants to have sex with me and I am fine with that but I'm still a virgin but want to loose my virginity with him. I told him that im not a virgin but when we do have sex can he tell if I have slept with anyone? He also said that he wants to have sex hardcore but the thing I want to know is will hurt my insides or make me bleed?? Also my friends said that I wont be able to walk properly afterwards and it changes the way I walk. Does it?

well bein honest i dont think age matters,

i lost my v when i was 13 too and i dont regret it becuase i am still in love with the person i lost it to and were still together,

as long as you know you want to do it and it feels right,

but like bein honest if hes just boy of msn who uve seen once u will regret it becuase its ur virginity an people might call u a slag if you dont really know him,

you should loose your v to the one you love and not someone you just thinks fit or whatever

ok im 13 goin on 14 in a month. but as i read all of others people replys it seem as if it was tellin u what to do. im gonna be str8 up cuz im good at these kinda things and i know wat your talkin about except it not over da internet. ok let start off with this. i wouldnt trust the person over the internet cuz you dont know if he safe or not. i would probably do it with sum1 i know and sum1 i cared about. your virginity is like a gift. they have to earn that gift. im not tellin you wat to do. but if youthink about its much better if it was someone u knew and u were close to.

hey sweetie. Im almost 14 to. Sex isnt all its cracked up to be. its nice and all but it changes who you are. im not one of those people who are saying i know everything and wait till your married. because its not easy to wait. im telling you this from personal expirence. my first time, was the worst thing i ever did. i didnt talk to the guy i was doing it with. i did it out of peer pressure. and now i regret it. but i had to move on. i waited and waited to get over him, and it was hard because he was my first. then i met a guy on myspace, kinda like u and msn. well i was friends with his sister so we met b4 and hung out. well we were going out for a month, before we actually sat down and talked about the consaquences of having sex. once we figured out what we would do if something went wrong we had sex. it was amazing. were still dating no. im not telling you to do it or not to do it. but make sure u talk about it, and you have a plan and a back up plan. make sure hes the rite one.

No!! dont do it!! im your age and i would ever do such i thing, being that young and with someone i met on msn! This boy is probably some pervert, and if you do meet him, take things slowly, and meet him with a trusted adult. As for the sex, you are not ready, and should wait untill you are at least 16, when your body has matured. Do not let any boy push you in to anything you dont want to do, and even if your friends say they have done it, they probably havent! and anyway, any sex before the age of 18 is probably crap anyway!

DIE-romantic. agony auntNo, you are not ready for sex. Your body and organs are not properly developed yet. It could damage your insides. Also you shouldnt let a guy push you into sex, because thats basically all they want, most cases where there are young girls, that is all what their boyfriends want. They do act nice then they just ditch you afterwards. If he respected you he wouldnt ask you for sex yet, he would wait.

Think and dont do anything you will regret.

A female reader, Loah United Kingdom +, writes (2 September 2007):

Loah agony auntExcuse me for being blunt here, but it seems that (after reading your post) you are by no means ready to have sex. It seems as though you are only considering losing your virginity solely to please this guy. Not only is sex illegal at your age, but it also means that you have to take on a whole new realm of responsibility. Meaning that if the unthinkable were to happen (pregnancy,std's,etc.) you would be mature enough to effectively deal with it. Personally I think you should establish a proper, maybe even a long term realtionship together before acting on your feelings. You haven't even told him the truth about you being a virgin yet (not a good move on your part). Think long and hard about this, your only 13 for god's sake!!

A female reader, lah mouw United States +, writes (2 September 2007):

lah mouw agony auntWell although the legal age to have sex is 16. In my opinion I don't find there's any certain age you have to be to be ready for sex. It's all on you. You have to be the judge of that with the way you feel and your knowledge. For some people it does hurt the first time, and there is a thing called a hymen which breaks when the girl is penetrated by the penis which causes you to bleed. Try and think over your choices before you take action. Be caustious. Because you are young make sure a condom is present. Be careful.

Dr. John agony auntNot only is sex at your age illegal but you are too young to start down that road in any case.

A sexual relationship should never ever happen until you are ready to take on a whole host of responsiblilities that comes with it.

You have lots of time to get into that stuff later.

Believe me, I have seen many travel that road before they are ready only to find that they really should have waited.

Be a kid while you are still a kid. You will be glad you did. Doc.

A female reader, penta United States +, writes (2 September 2007):

penta agony auntIf you're not very careful, your first time will hurt. You need to make sure he goes especially slowly, lots of forplay, maybe some lube, and don't just ram it home. If not, your first experience is going to be painful and bloody.

It won't permanently change the way you walk, regardless, but if it hurts you will walk funny until it stops hurting.

Please reconsider having sex this early. Not only is it illegal, but your body and your emotions are not ready. And if there are any consequences (pregnancy, STDs) you're not ready to handle those either.

Your first time should be special. It should be with someone you've dated for a very long time so that you know he will stick around after he gets your virginity. And it certainly shouldn't be with someone you couldn't tell the truth to. If you have to lie to him about your status (that you're a virgin) then this isn't a good enough relationship to loose it too.

Take care of yourself hon.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (2 September 2007):

The fact that you are asking these questions proves that you are too young and uneducated about sex, love, protection, STD's, AND your own body. Wait it out until you take a real sex education course or can talk about it with a trusted adult. Giggling 13 year old girls in the bathroom aren't reliable sources of information. Trust me, I was one once.

Are you embarassed to ask your mom or dad about it? If so, I'd wait until you can at least have an adult conversation about it with your parents (who will most likely be paying for your birth control prescription). And by "adult" I mean mature. Don't just storm in and say "Mom! I'm gonna have sex OKAYYY?! DEAL WITH IT, GOD!" and then run away and slam your bedroom door. At 13? hell, you're still a kid.

Most of my friends lost their virginities between the ages of 17 - 19. They were educated about their bodies and the risks (emotional AND physical), and open with their parents about it.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (2 September 2007):

Ahhh, Jr. High... DON'T DO IT!! DO NOT DO IT! I know you don't want to hear that you are too young, so think of it as you have not experienced enough in life yet. At your age girls are VERY sensitive and often think that these sorts of issues are important. I remember thinking I was in "love" with my 7th grade boyfriend. Ha! I know how you feel, because it was such a hyper-sensitive and awkward time in my life. Trust me, by the time you hit 18 you will be laughing at this. And I mean that in a light hearted way. You will change and mature. Having sex does not make you mature.

You'll be able to walk fine, in general a vagina does not affect your legs, though you could be sore. And there is a part of your body called a hymen that could tear during sex causing you to bleed. Oh by the way, it's going to HURT the first time, it will not be what you expect.

My advice (for your safety and to avoid being called a whore) is to wait until you are in a relationship with somebody you love and trust.

Oh. Protection.

But if I saw my 13 year old buying condoms I would smack her upside the head and throw her ass in bording school. Your parents raised you better than that young lady. :)

A female reader, anonymous, writes (2 September 2007):

Dear, please don't. I'm 21, and I remember wanting to lose my virginity when I was 13 too. I've been there. I thought I would be ahead of the curve, more mature. Later, I lost mine when I was 16 to a boy I was in a relationship with, and you know what? I wish I hadn't. I didn't love him, and I gave up something very precious to somebody I could give a care less about.

Plus take in mind that losing your virginity SEEMS cool and rebellious when you are 13, but later on when you're older people will start saying things like "Oh God there's ________, she screwed some guy from the internet when she was 13. What a slut!" You will be judged by your peers and possibly even treated like a piece of meat.

You wouldn't want your parents to be disapointed either. And trust me, you are still so young. You are still their little girl. They will be shocked and your relationship with them could change dramatically.

My best advice is to wait until you are older (if you have to ASK if you are ready, you are NOT ready, please just take my word for it) and in love and in a monogamous relationship.

I know at your age you feel like you wont regret it, but theres a pretty good chance that one day you will wish you gave yourself to somebody you love. REALLY, TRULY, LOVE.

Anyway, 13/14 year old boys are chronic liars. He'll tell his friends, it will get around. I highly doubt that a young boy looking for sex on the internet has had sex before.

When you ARE ready, I urge you to use birth control pills AND condoms. STD's are much more common than you think, and teenage pregnancy and/or abortion doesn't sound like too much fun.

P.S. My best friend is a beautiful 21 year old girl who is a virgin, and she is highly respected (not to mention sought-after). Being a virgin is in most cases seen as a sign of morals, standards, and purity. No self respecting man wants a young lady who lost it when she was 13 to a boy on the internet. (I'm not lecturing you, I'm just telling you woman to woman, that it IS in your best interest to wait. Guys respect girls they can bring home to mom. Guys don't respect a girl who just gives it up. You are worth so much more!)

L0V3LiiK3W0AH agony aunthey, i can probably answer this question best cause i'm actually also turningg 14 in a few weeks also and i've been in your same position also.

First off all NEVER be in a rush to lose your virginity. It's a beautiful thing to have, no lie. && Truth is you end up regretting it with time if you just give it away like that. Make sure your absolutely positive you want this and make sure you feel comfortable with the person your giving it too.

I'm not going to tell you not to fo it or go for it or anything like that. Just make sure you want this.

Also, seeing how its your first time don't have it hardcore just yet cause it'll hurt you seeing how your not used to it. You probably will bleed seeing how its your first time and you'll just feel a little off when your walkingg but it won't stay that way forever.

A female reader, Emzy1591 United Kingdom +, writes (1 September 2007):

Emzy1591 agony auntHey

Ok firstly-DON'T EVEN CONSIDER HAVING SEX! Your 3 years under the legal age and no matter how mature you think you are, its a stupid idea. Your body is not physically ready and neither are you mentally.

Secondly, this boy shouldn't even be thinking about having sex with an underage girl. It could get him a prison sentence as sex with an underage girl is considered as rape.

Thirdly, you should lose your virginity to somebody you love and trust when you are legally old enough and mentally and physically ready.

Fourthly, It can hurt when you first have sex and having sex will NOT change the way you walk. This shows how immature and unaware you are about sex. Another reason not to do it.

I'm 15, two years older then you and even though I am quite mature I wouldn't even consider having sex yet and am still a virgin.

Please, if you want to be friends with this boy or even pursue a relationship with him then do so, just promise me you will not have sex with him. It's not all its cracked up to be and you as well as guys will respect you more for keeping hold of your virginity. Don't get a reputation for being "easy".

Hope I've helped

lovehate agony aunthey hunni i am nearly 15 and had sex 1 month ago for the first time. Yes you will bleed-depending on how deep he will penetrate or "gos" depends on how much you bleed. If he thinks it isnt your first time he will be rougher. Some of my friends have found it hard to walk the next day but only for a day or two and it doesnt change it forever. My advice is wear a condom and tell him not to be rough.

How old is he? 13 too?

13 is young but i know people who have done it at that age and havnt been "scarred". If you are 100% positive you are ready then all i can say is use protection. I am around your age and am not going to tell you not to do it if you are ready, there is no point because you will go and do it anyway sooner rather than later.

I hope you havnt ever met him in person and have just spoken to him on MSN...if this is the case. Do not even meet him!!

I really wouldn't have sex with this guy atm, I know you feel you are ready, and have probably heard this all before. But seriously you will regret it later on in life. You are still young and shouldn't have to worry about all the problems sex could bring up.

Just get to know this guy a bit more, become closer as friends and enjoy life as a 13/14yr old girl, there will be plenty of time for sex later on in life, don't rush though growing up, you'll regret it later. :)
