Dear Diana,
I am 21 years old and my boyfriend is 25. We have been going out for six months. He says it is time that I get in bed with him. I don't want to as I am not really ready for it yet. Holding hands, hugging and kissing is okay butu00a0 beyond that I have my reservations at this stage of our relationship. How do I tell him I don't want to without hurting him? Will it upset him?
