| 18. Looking at kids now I think that I was pretty lucky 17-18 seems to be a real sweet spot for it. I really don't think of myself as a woman at 14 or 15. It was kind of that turning point age, which is nice. |
Ah, I waited for religious reasons, so I guess I was biased there. I wasn't a late bloomer. |
NP. One more data point for you. I was 31. Waited until I knew I was with "the one." Got married a few months later, and we've been married for 15 years. I wasn't a shy person like the PP, but I was waiting for the right person. My mom waited until she got married (albeit at 21), so I guess I just thought that was the right thing to do. We're not religious. Husband was not a virgin. |
| 16. Turns out he was gay, found out on facebook. Not friends. |
| 18 yep def not in contact now, total douche |
|
18. Married him. Never been with any other.
Going on 40 years. |
Wow! |
19. At the time I was religious. Then I met my DW at 23, and we've been together ever since, but I'm no longer religious. Some things last, others fade. |
Different poster here: As another who was religious at the time, it doesn't mean that I didn't date. I just didn't have sex with those dates until I was older. |
Sorry about that. |

and 31 years later, still friends, yes. |
| Was 20, she was 18, we are FB friends married to other people. It was her first time as well. |
| 23 and now have been married to him for 20 years. I was not religious but very socially conservative. |

I posted a while back that I was almost 21 when I lost my virginity. Definitely not religiously motivated! I was "friend zoned" by a lot of guys, starting very young, and going pretty much through college. I was totally fine with that for the most part, because it meant I could be myself and have fun with guys without potentially scary or negative outcomes. Of course, I found out from many of these friends--some of whom I had crushes on--years later that they had liked me, but didn't want to ruin our friendship. Ah well.
Fortunately, I slept with one of those friends when we were 23. (After having a couple of other relationships.) He proposed when we were 26, and we've been married for 10 years. |
| 14. Not in touch with him because he moved overseas a few years later and doesn't use social media, but we stayed friends until that happened. I married the second guy I slept with (at age 16) after college graduation. |
