- Dress modestly. Sometimes the way you dress can send unintended messages to others, especially men because they are sexually aroused by what they see.
- Stay away from drugs and alcohol. Drugs and alcohol can cloud your ability to make good decisions and make it harder for you to say no.
- Avoid too much alone time with your boyfriend or girlfriend. Spending long periods of time alone together can lead to too much physical contact too soon.
- Associate with others who share your same goals. Be friendly to everyone, but keep close relationships with people who share similar values and goals to make it easier to stick to your values.
- Everyone wants to feel loved. Recognize your love needs and why being loved by a male or female peer is important to you.
- Set your standards high and early in the relationship. Decide now why you feel being a virgin is important, and stick to it!
