As I mentioned on #2 of things that drive me completely insane, sexually active teenagers.
Personally, I have decided to remain abstinent because I think that emotionally it is so much to handle, and it is something you can never take back and I try my hardest to live without regrets. Since highschool I've had people ask me questions about if I have or haven't had sex, and more often than not, when I say I haven't I become pushed out of the conversation and girls start talking to me like I'm years younger than and inferior to them. It makes me feel entirely awkard, and like I'm the only one not doing it.
Today after school I was walking down the hall with my boyfriend and a bunch of girls passed us, bouncy and obviously hyper and full of energy. One of them said, "You two look so cute together" and right as I was responding with "Thank you", she blurted out, "Have you had sex yet?" and continued with "You should, sex is great, sex is love." This girl is a complete stranger and within a few seconds she was already questioning our intimacy. Not only do I find this rude, invasive, but also disturbing. Why are these girls so concearned with it? It really does not make you more grown-up, especially because of the way they handle it, and it really does not do anything but complicate relationships and provide risks. In my opinion, sex should be something between two people, not something to do and go tell the world about, like theres a line in highschool between virgins and nonvirgins. And since my boyfriend and I have been dating for a while and we spend a huge majority of our lives together, people assume things about us that aren't true. I find this topic very annoying, and I am sick of being approached about this.
