Am I the only 17 year old not having sex? Am I making it seem like a bigger deal?

It may seem that every one your age is having sex and drinking, Its not. I know a lot of people is 17 year old is not having sex. So your not the only one. Yeah lot of people is drinking. Your is not the only one is feeling like this. in different towns and cites people is not doing it.
 
I am 18 and I only had sex for the first time a couple weeks ago. i felt the exact same way that you do. Many of my peers were having sex and I felt like the only one who hadn't yet. Many people have different views on it and its mostly up to what your view is. Many people think that sex is no big deal and have it a lot. Some people think that you should wait to have sex until you meet someone that you truely love. And some people believe that you should wait until marriage for sex. You should not feel left out that you haven't yet because your time will come. Its better to wait and be happy with the person you have sex with then to just have sex to say you did and then regret it later on.
 
So theres a lot of people I hang out with that drink a lot and have sex, but my closer friends believe sex is more important than a drunken thing. However, my closest friend, has proven herself wrong, and gotten drunk and had sex with a random guy. And has continued to have unprotected sex with him!

I feel that out of ALL of my friends now (close or not) I am the only 17 year old girl who hasn't sex.

Am I making a bigger deal out of this than I should? Is 17 a good age?

HELPPPPPPP
 
Do not give your virginity to just anyone keep it until you find the man you believe you could really marry! It will be a huge mistake just giving it to just anyone. For that man that you do give it to be it your husband or a boyfriend that you thought would be the one it would be an ultimate gift you could give and it would mean the world to that man. So hold on to it and give it to the one you want to marry.
 
NOOO 17 is wayyyyyyyyy too young trust me. who cares if they're all doing it? they'll respect you for not giving into peer pressure. and even if they don't, you'll respect yourself. i think having sex to prove yourself is just silly- it shows the insecurity of some of your friends that they think they have to do it to feel worthwhile. wait til you're married :D you'll have time to get to know yourself and the kind of person you want to be with. don't worry, just be cool in who you are and don't feel you need to prove yourself. you're wonderful just the way God made you xxx
