High School Relationships

[Kasynlie]

Is it possible to have a boyfriend - girlfriend relationship at high school without any sexual intimacy? The reason I ask is, there is this girl that I kinda like and I know she likes me for a fact. Both of her best friends have had sex and one of them is currently in a [sexual] relationship with one of my friends.



I wouldn't mind this particular girl being my girlfriend, but I don't want to have anything sexual (I don't feel comfortable with it at just 17). How would I tell her? How do I ask her if she is still a virgin or not?



And one more question, what would my dad say about a relationship? He has meet the girl I like and I'm sure he wants her to be my girlfriend?



I'm so confused - I've never had a girlfriend before (don't ask why).

There's no reason to rush into sex. In fact, that can ruin a lot of good friendships. If you'd like to date her, then date her. If you want to have her as a girlfriend, then do. That doesn't automatically mean you need to have sex with her.

Let the relationship develop naturally--you don't need to ask her if she's a virgin or if she wants sex. She'll let you know if and when she's ready--then have that talk.

Just take it one day at a time. When it's right for you, you'll know it.

Sure, it's possible. I'm in one right now.

Just establish personal boundaries (how far you want to go) before your relationship gets serious. If she can't respect your boundaries, she's not the girl for you.

I know people that were high school sweethearts that got married. My bff for one. A few couples that go to our church also were high school sweethearts.

Get a girl to do what?

Most people who are in High School will tend to have a sexual relationship. But, it's perfectly fine if you don't want to.



Just straight up tell her, if she really likes you she will understand.

I wouldnt say most, but a lot do. There is still a large percent of the population who are responsible with their gf/bf or just cant or dont want to get a gf/bf.

I'm more concerned with my education right now, so all that nonsense will have to wait until I find the special one, or that special one finds me, then after we're married.
