Dear Panel,

My best friend and her boyfriend have had sex already and my boyfriend and I haven't. I want to a few years (I'm 15), but my boyfriend and my friend's boyfriend are best friends.

I think he feels upset and maybe thinks I don't love him, but he has never said that. I know I'm not ready for sex, but what can I do to stay with my boyfriend and for us both to be happy?
