so me and my boyfriend use the spericide condoms [trojan], he never ejaculates in me, he's always checking the condom to make sure it's on right and we change like every half hour, we also use lube[idk if that does anything]
but do you think that's pretty good b/c i'm only 16 and i was thinking about getting on the pill
I'd get on the pill just in case, although you guys seem to be cautious and are safe. The bc pill I have only costs $10.
[COLOR="purple">[/COLOR]well i think that thats really nice because hes showing that he cares!. but i dint know i dont think you should use the pills because it might be dangerous because you never know wat the side effects might be...i know people that cant have children because of the pills. Thats why i dont recomend it.
Talk to your doctor.
yea i'm not worried about STDs or anything just about not getting pregnant, i think i'm going to go talk to a doctor b/c his mom is really cool about us and has offered to take me, it's just risky cuz if my parents ever found out
Allow me to be a crotchedy (sp?) old fart.
How nice that his parents are undermining yours.
That said, I'll give you a lot of credit for using birth control, that does demonstrate some responsibility. You might want to look at the effectiveness of various techniques... I think you'll find that even on the pill, a condom is considered necessary additional protection. (The web site for Planned Parenthood has some good statistics on this.)
But sneaking around behind your parent's back... particularly conspiring with his parents... that doesn't demonstrate responsibility on your part or his Mom's. You're asking for trouble. There's a lot more to life and relationships than "not getting pregnant."
that isn't what it's all about i love him to death i really do and no one can talk me out of that
my parents are nuts you don't know anything about that
i'm not worried about the comfort issue i just want to be safe
Relationships are also not simply about loving somebody to death either.
I have no need to argue with you... you're right, I know nothing about your parents. Your parents may be nuts, but they are your parents and you are not an adult. That's called reality -- and it's not my reality, it's yours. Read your first post, you are the one who said "I'm only 16."
Your age is apparent. Very apparent. You asked "do you think it's pretty good..." and when someone (me) says "yes, but..." you get all wound up, defensive and arrogant?
Oh, if you want to be 100% safe, stop having sex. I think you'll find that statistically, keeping penises out of vagina's is the only absolutely sure way to prevent pregnancies.
At the same time if you, him and his parents want to conspire against yours... no skin off my back. Just don't pretend you are engaging in some wonderfully responsible adult behavior. You are taking some HUGE relationship risks.
