My boyfriend told me that if I don't sleep with him, he'll find someone who loves him enough to try to make him happy. What do I do?
He's right: you should love someone enough to make them happy. That is exactly why he should guard your heart and purity, not pressure you to have sex. He doesn't understand what love is.
Love is selfless, not selfish. A relationship is like an empty box. Both people have to put in more than they take out. You can't just put in and so he can take out. The very person you expect to love you leaves you naked and used, both sexually and emotionally.
But let's say you do have sex with him. What happens next?
Statistically, couples break up less than 30 days after having sex. You can explain that statistic in many ways, but know that a guy loses respect for a girl who gives in to every whim. She starts to feel "easy." The adventure is over and he goes off to find another one.
Some guys will stay with a girl if she has sex with him. But think about the problem you are getting into. It's not enough that you gave your virginity to him, but you have to keep offering your body just to keep him. It's an endless nightmare.
You are so wonderful and worthy of being loved. God made you this way. You need to break off this relationship and explain to him why. He's not a bad guy, he just doesn't understand what love is. If you don't tell him, who will? It won't be the girl who gives in.
