Okay... I'm sorry to all the other 14-year-olds who may read my response, but...

"Serious relationships"? At 14? Look, I believe it's possible to fall in love, and have a meaningful relationship at that age... but I wouldn't call any relationship between two 14-year-olds "serious". You're still kids, for goodness sake. You haven't matured physically, emotionally, or mentally enough to fully appreciate what a "serious" relationship would consist of.

I mean, how many of your friends are using birth control when losing their virginity? How many of them even know WHAT birth control is? How many of them have made plans, in the event that the girl ends up pregnant? Has the boy found a part-time job, in order to fulfill his financial commitment as a father, if the problem arose?

You're not a reject. You're not rushing into a relationship, you're taking your time, and you're not making decisions that you may regret later on in life. ENJOY your time as a 14-year-old, before you have to grow up and take on "adult" responsibilities. There will be plenty of time for dating, kissing, and sex in the years to come. Go at your own pace, and don't let your friends dictate what is and isn't "cool".
