Never kissed yet, pressured

[Polo2847]

A lot of my friends are getting into relationships, especially close friends, and I kinda feel pressured to get into a relationship also. Along with "teenage relationships" comes sex. Also, there's a girl that I kind of like, but in a discussion one time, she said that she doesn't want to get into a relationship. Is it okay that I'm 17 and I still haven't had my first kiss?

When I think about it, I think first time sex is nerve-wracking. I've never gotten naked in front of another person and get so close to them. Like, I feel like I'm violating someone's personal space, even if they allow me to do so for sex. SHOWING YOUR GENITALS TO SOMEONE ELSE AND TOUCHING THEIRS/VICE VERSA...it's seems very intimate (which it is obviously)...to me it's just uncharted territory.

I just feel like I'm left out if close friends already have a partner and are doing stuff. UNCHARTED TERRITORY!!! :/ :(

You sound the kind of guy who can't just have sex with anyone, that you have to have strong feelings for someone before you can get intimate with her. When you get those strong feelings for someone special, and fall madly in love with her, you'll have no problem kissing her and getting naked in front of her! And you'll have no problem wanting to have sex with her, it'll come natural to you!

Hey man good for you that you have morals and respect yourself and others as well. Whenever YOU and your partner think you are ready to do stuff is when you should. Don't let others persuade you into something you aren't ready for

Well...i have never dated or anything yet so I dont really feel comfortable showing off my parts to anyone..

I have a friend who was like, "What?! William you haven't kissed anyone yet? I kissed a girl in sophomore (we're seniors now)." But he kissed a girl in a kissing game and got herpes...not the best way I would like to remember my first kiss.

Good for you, it means your a trusted and faithful person, hopefully. Any woman should be lucky to get a faithful lover like you.

Just relax and let things happen when they feel right.

I'm the same! I'm 17 and never had a relationship. I have had several crushes on girls (and a couple of guys!) but never know how to approach them and get into a relationship. Never had a kiss either :/

Doesn't matter.

Don't stress, when the right person comes along it will happen :)
