Line: You're still a virgin? You don't know what you're missing!
Response: I do know what I'm missing – STDs, pregnancy and a lot of emotional baggage.
· Line: I promise nothing will happen - I'll use protection.
Response: The only protection for me is abstinence. My future isn't worth risking. With your “protection” I can still get pregnant and/or contract sexual transmitted diseases.
· Line: Are you repressed or something?
Response: No, I'm comfortable with my sexuality – I know it's a gift worth saving for my future spouse.
· Line: Just have a few drinks, that'll get us in the mood!
Response: No, thanks. Actually I'm just on my way home.
It is important to figure out where you are going to draw the line physically in a relationship. Remember, oral sex is sex as you can get STD’s from it. The most important stage of a relationship is being together, if you do not get to know the person on all levels, social, spiritual, emotional, intellectual the relationship will not fill the deepest desire you have for the relationship in the first place.
