My girlfriend is a virgin. Can I ask her for sex?

It should just happen naturally, if you are at a point you still have to ask you are not ready

What you do is go to her parents and ask their permission to have sex with their daughter.

How old are you?

It depends. Are you ready to be a father? Is she ready to be a mother? Are you committed enough that you're considering marriage? Are you financially secure? Do you even have a well paying job, or are you so young that you still live with mom and dad?

She's a virgin. I'm assuming that there's a reason for that. It's probably because she doesn't want to be a mom right now. She's not ready for a child. Either that, or she's religious, or was taught to wait until marriage, or at least love, before having sex.

You have to think about more than your sexual urges. Can you afford a child? Not just once it's here, but all the care it needs while she's pregnant, the birth itself (which can cost $12,000 or more in the US, if the delivery is normal), and all the supplies, doctors visits, etc, after the baby is born? If you don't even have the $12,000 for the delivery, then you're not ready to be a parent, which means you shouldn't be having sex. There's no form of birth control on the market that's 100% effective. Just fyi.

So how old are you? Are you ready to be an adult, be responsible for another living being? If not, then you're not ready for sex, and neither is she. Maybe she's just smart enough to know that, and that's why she's still a virgin.

No you shouldn't ask for sex I believe if she's ready then it'll play into part.

Excellent advice - love it. Yes, that's the answer.

Greenie and applause.

Well if BOTH of you feel ready and you are protected then yes>

Better be safe than sorry

No birth control is 100% - what do you recommend?

But we don't know if both feel ready. We also don't know their situation like how long they have been dating, how old they are etc.

And how old are you that you think you can give advice of this sort?
