Yes, it is. If you have an IQ over 20, anyway.

Well then give me a reason why it's the most obvious thing in the world?

If you're in love with somebody at the time, how is it common sense to not lose it? I mean... you love that person so you want to lose your virginity with them. It's just later on in life you might regret who you lost it with. =\

Oh don't listen to that fucking swine.

How long do majority of teens wait to lose it? Maybe 3-6 months at the max, and that's not long enough to really cement your feelings with someone I don't think. By the time you reach a teenager you should be clued up enough to know about what a commitment sex is etc and be wise enough to wait to really, really make sure that person you 'love' is the right one. If people had a bit more patience and, dun dun dun, common sense about how they dealt with relationships the ammount of people who regretted it would be far far lower. People just get caught up in stuff and go way too fast.

Betcha the ratio of people who waited at least a year before sleeping with their partner regret it a whole lot less than those who went flying into it. Just takes a little patience and shiznit. I see people going way too fast all the time then all you hear is 'urgh, I wish I hadn't done that..'. Sucks for you, but hey, it is your own fault.

(Eh, not the case all the time, some people sex each other up in first week and end up marrying blah blah, talking about vast majority of teens..)

Well that's your opinion and it's of minor importance.

Common sense is subjective therefore, you are wrong in approaching this in an objective manner. One doesn't suddenly become wise when they hit 13. You are proof of this. You're also assuming the reason people have sex is because of 'love'. In turn you're also assuming the reason for regret is because it's the 'wrong one', it could be numerous reasons.

But that is the most common reason.

Yes well, as far away from English as that is, I think I understand a bit of that. Obviously people who are raped etc are not who I was talking about.

oooh matt, I agree with you, AGAIN.


Common sense hardly is subjective anymore when most everyone has the same sense of .. "common sense". I'm sure they hasn't been a large survey taken or anything, but I agree with the part that, the people who wait longer before having sex with their partner, tend to regret it less than people who rush into sex after a few months of knowing them. Granted, a 30 year old having sex after say, 4 months, will probably have less regretful issues than say, a 14 year old. however, the 30 year is assumably more sexually experienced. I know what I mean.

I'm glad I waited 2.5 years before having sex with my bf. For me, that was about when I was ready. Ready to handle a baby if the situation came about. Although, not trying to sound big headed, I feel like I am more responsible and understanding of ..life? than most people are. Post done.

To be honest. As long as you take precautions - It's only sex.

Once you 'lose it' it isn't such a big thing, don't get me wrong, i'm not saying it isn't special anymore. It's just not a big worry or thought, it's just something you to do show affection to another person.

There's nothing common about sense. I'm sorry, but it's not the most obvious thing in the world, especially to someone in their early teens. Unfortunately they're susceptible to a little charm, money and experimentation. A 30-year-old is at a different stage of life, is there even any point in that comparison.

I lost my Virginity at the age of fifteen (yes this year) and ive always said ill wait till im sixteen unless i find the right person and thats why I lost mine because the person it was with I love and we are still going togther...It really dont matter bout age (just not too young lol) it matters about the other person so I dont know why you should worrie or anything as long as you love the person its with/was with!

luff cara xx (l) :d (y)

haha.. gagging for me. lol. We kept ourselves busy other ways.

I agree with you markeh, about once you lose it, its not as big of a deal. But I don't think it should be in the same category as .. oral sex or something. The potential consequences are very different.

I don't feel like typing about this anymore. All I'm saying is that, I feel like a large number of early teens lose it much too soon. Meaning..before they are ready for the consequences or all the emotional perks that come along with it. Really, before understanding love. (not saying ALL people have sex because of love, but yeah)

Alot of teens abuse the word "Love" now adays. its like WTF.

I "love" this dude that i've been going out with for a few months.

I wish they'd jump infront of a train for wrecking the meaning of the fucking word. If you lose it because your 14 and "In love" you're just stupid.
