when is it ok to have sex with your boyfriend?

1

I have a few friends that are in pretty serious relationships with people they trust and the question of when it might happen is in the air.

It all depends on them, and when BOTH of them feel comfortable with it. Which is important, they need to talk about it with each other and see how each other feel about it, and if they are both ready to make that commitment to each other .

I like LoverOfPitBulls101's answer. The major quality you are assessing is trust. My rule is only if you trust them so much that you would be comfortable letting them read your mind 24/7. Also, have some confidence that they trust you equally. If you do decide on going forward with it, know there is risk involved. The question is whether or not the risk is worth it.One last thing -- respect is a pre-requisite to this kind of trust.

when sex happens in a relationship depends on how they are both feeling. as long as they're both ready, and have reached the age of consent in their country (common sense), then it should be ok. it would also be a good idea to run it by the 'rents, if they haven't given one of them 'the talk' yet.

Virginity is a social construct! As long as you and whoever are both consenting adults (or teens), have as much sex as you want. Sex is literally apart of our human nature. Other mammals have sex all the time without worrying about their friends or how far along their relationship should be. If you don't want to have sex, don't. If you do, then do. Just remember: consent is key. Also safe sex is great sex.

I don't know your age but first of all make sure you're old enough to really know what you're doing. There really isn't a time though. When you two are ready and feel like you can completely trust each other than maybe. Just make sure you're comfortable enough and if you're not than don't do it. Just whenever you do make sure you do it "safely", using protection and that kind of stuff.

Don't be in a hurry to give up your virginity. Once it's gone, it's gone, and as women, losing our virginity is often something that we see as very emotional and sacred. We want our first time to be beautiful with someone we love and hope will stay. Men, or should I say, boys, on the other hand, see it more as a fun rite of passage, and relationships hardly ever last forever when you're still young. If you choose a guy who doesn't understand how serious this step is for you and then breaks up with you later, it will be one of the regrets you carry with you into adulthood, that you lost your virginity to the wrong guy. The majority of women have this regret.

Wait until marriage. I know it may sound cheesy but it's the right thing to do. Like the other answers said, you have to do it with someone you truly trust and do it with your husband is the right thing to do. Maybe you're desperate and you want to do it know but trust me IT'S WORTH THE WAIT!

Whenever you feel ready to have sex with your boyfriend. Don't allow anyone to pressure you into it. If you're physically ready, but not emotionally ready, don't have sex with him. If you're emotionally ready but not physically ready, don't have sex with him. It's all about feeling comfortable with one another. If you've reached a stage in your relationship where you're both ready for sex, then you should go ahead and do it. But when you do, make sure you stay safe. I would definitely think it through first though. Are you ready? Do you feel ready? Are you sure you want to start having sex? Just because your friends are doing it, doesn't mean you have to. You have plenty of time for that later! (:

Virginity is an idiotic social construct as mentioned before and it really doesn't matter when you have sex. You can have it on the first date, have it with a stranger, wait until marriage, wait until a year into the relationship, whatever. Just as long as it's safe it's no one else's business and it's solely you and your partner's choice.

trust is everything when you are trying sex for the first time also use protection, but still make sure you talk about what if you accidentally get pregnant

It's not a religious matter or anything like that. Sex is a thing of pleasure but also of responsability, you have to be sure that you're willing to accept its consequences. If you're both willing, then it's awesome. Sex is for everybody to enjoy, but always be mindful about it as well. Have an amazing day.

Sex is something that is sacred and only used when you truly do have strong feelings for a person and if you do not feel that way at all with your bf then i don't think that you should have sex with him because you do not want to regret your decision after what is done is done.
