You know, I laughed right out loud when I read 6dle899's post to you. He's right too. Your original post shows that you are very young and unaware as to how your comments about not being arrogant , being highly intelligent and very good looking come across to some other people. Even saying this kind of self description in this forum can strike people as conceit. That's partly because you have evaluated yourself on stuff that you got from genetics and not from your own accomplishments. Plus the fact that high school is over, and you should be more aware that where you excelled at being intelligent may not count as much now that you are entering a much larger society of adults who have a variety of very appreciated talents and skills.

You also don't know who, in a crowded room, is just as intelligent and who is far more intelligent in the same ways you are. So be careful about that. You are soon going to find out that you will need other people to help you with all areas of life- every job skill, physical and emotional ability, and intelligence that you don't personally have. So realize that your particular intelligence is not all there is, and not all that is valued in the bigger world.

Okay, now back to what I think might be your reason for posting- Do you want to know if you should not cave in and have sex with some guy who thinks you should? Do your female friends chide you and say "...go do it. It is not such a big important deal to wait?" All women and all men have to make this decision, just like you. And they make it every time they date someone, even after a long time marriage is over due to death or divorce. Some people don't mind having sex right away with someone they like. In fact they enjoy it, taking the risks as they come, no big deal. Others are much more likely to wait a long time until they are sure they really like/love this other person. If you look around on these boards, you'll find this range of "when to do it" is very wide. There is nothing wrong with you waiting. After all, if you are in the 1-2% or more who get prego even if practicing safe sex and additional birthcontrol, won't you be happier sharing child visitation with someone you really think is a good person and a good potential parent? Go out, have fun, get some work experience, and learn about how you fit in the world. Don't have sex until you feel it is the right time with the right person.
