Sexual feelings and thoughts are normal for teens and adults. Many times teens have sex before they are ready for it.
Sexual relationships have an impact on many parts of a person's life.
Television and movies make sex seen really casual and cool, and without consequences. Sex in the media is not like sex in real life. Some teens who have had sex too soon feel guilty and ashamed. Others find that their relationship with their partner changes, and that they have become further apart. There are teens who have sex to hold onto a relationship, or because they feel pressured to prove their love.
