What's a "boyfriend" or what's a "girlfriend?" It all depends on what you and yours decide it's going to mean and what works best for you.
I've been with a man for three years, and sometimes I wonder how a man's body scent does not smell like a woman's. I told him if you are with somebody for over ten years, you start to smell like them or look like them. My question is that once you are having sex with them for a while, why is it that you can't wash their scent off you no matter how much you wash your hair and body?
There's a reason for taking things slowly, for putting off intercourse, or taking it away from center stage that often gets overlooked. I'm not talking about slowing things down for religious or moral ideals or social pressures. Not slowing things down to prevent STIs and pregnancy. Not even slowing things down for legal reasons or because of your age. I'm not talking about Just Say No, and I'm not talking about not having sex at all. I'm talking about PLEASURE.
