I feel as if all of my friends have had hookups and seem so sure of themselves when it comes to sexual experiences. I know everyone moves at their own pace, but I feel so far behind. I just had my first sexual encounter with a guy, and it wasn't what I thought it would be. I'm just not sure I'm ready for this yet. I know I'm young, but everyone else my age (and even younger) seems so mature and ready. Is something wrong? Why am I so confused with what I want? Please give advice! I feel like I'm never going to catch up or feel confident about myself and my feelings. Reply to this Question Share |

I wish I had had less sexual "partners" when I was younger, I do regret giving into pressure and thinking "everyone must be doing it". You are undecided about the type of guy because you are young, and need to meet guys in unromantic situations to get a feel of what you like and dislike in the opposite gender. Please dont compare yourself to your friends, I am sure they will regret having these encounters in a few years time.

Slow down. There's no rush. And don't be fooled by other's show of confidence. Many people fake it till they make it. When someone comes along who seems caring, compassionate, interesting... (you complete the list) then you might want to take a chance on them.
You are fully genetically programmed to know exactly what to do when the time is right. Relax. You are going to look back on this time with affection in the future.
