Worth the Wait

If everybody's doing it, shouldn't you?

Sometimes the pressure to give in can be overwhelming. For a young high school football star, he can think of nothing else. s*x is foremost in his mind, not just because he wants to do it but because he isn't. He doesn't want to give in, but he doesn't want to risk losing his boyfriend by saying no. He wants to do it, he does. But he's afraid. If they love each other, isn't that enough?

Just because everyone else thinks it's time doesn't mean he has to give in. Or does it? Sometimes respecting someone's decision -- even one you don't like -- says more about the love you share than words ever could.
