I'm 11 my BF is 13 we both are really in love and we've been going out for 3 years and we have decided to do it... Except we have no idea where! Where should I do it?

 

 Hey girl, I understand that you both really care about each other but what's the hurry to have sex? Sex can have so many consequences that you just aren't ready for. The biggest and scariest consequence is pregnancy. At 11 years old, you just aren't ready to have a baby. You can get pregnant the very first time you have sex; you can get pregnant on your period; you can get pregnant when he pulls out, and if you aren't really careful about following the instructions on birth control, (and sometimes even if you are really careful about following the directions) you can get pregnant. You def. want to be smart about these things and you need to talk to a doctor about the pregnancy issue ASAP. Too many kids end up pregnant because they don't think it can happen to them, and then it does!Think about trying go to school AND take care of a baby. Way too difficult! Goodbye date nights, homecomings and prom. In addition to pregnancy, you will probably find yourself extremely emotional after doing it. There are just so many factors to think about that you might be more prepared to handle when your older.


 

Try talking to your mom, aunt or grandmother while you think over this decision. They might be able to help ya think things through and prepare yourself. You might be nervous to talk to your mom at first, but it will really help to talk about this big event in your life. Think about it this way, if you're trying to hide it, doesn't that make it a little bit sketchy?  If you're having trouble getting the words out, write it down on a piece of paper and hand it to her. Overall, I honestly don't think this is a good idea. If you have a great relationship now, you'll have a great relationship without sex. Waiting will only make your relationship stronger while jumping into sex before your ready can complicate things or even cause things between the two of you to fall apart.

this guy is bad news sending pics of you naked is illegal and not a smart thing they could end up all over the school. plus hes older than you by alot so he could be used to other girls "doing it" with him. i would stay as far away from him as i could chica.
