There's a difference between sex and love

You are raised to believe that you will grow up, you get married, and then can start popping out as many babies as you want. Well, in today's time, especially teen years, sex is very common. I personally haven't had sex, and do not plan to any time soon. It just bothers me seeing people, even younger than me, having sex, obviously not ready, and say it was love or because of love. Love is when you have a sure connection-bond-with someone. Sex makes bonds, but these can weaken very easily. Like I said before, I haven't engaged in sexual activities, but I know a lot of people my age do, and my message would be to wait until you are ready. There is nothing wrong with waiting. If it's with the person you want to be with, you will create a bond that will last forever called l.o.v.e.

I wrote this because a lot of teens think about it, talk about it, and basically "do it". I just want people to know that TRUE LOVE comes with patience.
