Hey there,
Whether you like someone just as a friend or as something more (like your boyfriend), making decisions that could affect your relationship with them is really hard. In this case, I can understand that you're concerned that your boyfriend won't want to be in a relationship with you if you aren't quite ready to go as far as he wants to. However, I don't think you have to necessarily jump to that conclusion. For one thing, you heard this from his friends, right? As strange as it may seem, there are definitely times when communication gets misunderstood and that could certainly be the case here. The short answer is that YOU need to talk to your boyfriend about this, instead of hearing it from his friends. I think that will ultimately calm a lot of the things that are stressing you out. At this point, you are uncertain and that is what is causing you the most stress. Worry about relieving that first and then decide what you are going to do based on what your boyfriend says.

Also, keep in mind that just because he has said he WANTS to go a certain distance with you doesn't mean that he isn't willing to slow things down if you aren't ready. As cliche as it may sound, a true relationship has to based on a a lot more than just physical attraction. If all he ultimately wants is sexual favors, then you don't need a relationship with him anyways. However, like I said before, it's quite probable that he would be willing to make changes in the things that he wants in order to stay with you.

Ultimately, it's up to you. Regardless of the situation, I would definitely encourage you to stand your ground and stick to the things that you're comfortable with. If he wants to go further than you're ready to go, say so. There's no reason that you should have to subject yourself to a situation that makes you uncomfortable, even if it involves your boyfriend. Best of luck and please feel free to send me  PM if you want to talk

Well just remember how far youre willing to go and stick to it. Dont let him push you into doing something you don't want to do alright? If this is really bothering you, talk to him about it. Healthy communication is absolutely CRITICAL in any relationship, and this is no differne.t If youre feeling like this, you need to tell him so the two of you can work this out and strengthen your relationship. Stick to your beliefs though. Dont "negotiate" and agree to something youre not comfortable with. Your feelings are more important than his sexual urges, just remember that.

But its nice that he is showing sympathy and making something for you. Follow your heart, and you can't go wrong.

Hey (:

If you aren't ready to go all the way with him, don't do it. Please always do what you are ready for and comfortable for. If you aren't ready for taking this next step, tell him that you aren't ready. If he really does care about you, he will wait until you are. Never be pressured into something your mind isn't set on.

I think this is something you should probably speak to him about again. Get through to him that you aren't ready and see what happens after. It's a serious issue and should be discussed properly.

Wish you the very best of luck with him.
