I had at least 2 opportunities before I actually went through with it. With my first and second real (non-childhood) girlfriends.
First chance was when I was 17.. But I didn't feel it was appropriate. She was 15/16 at the time. That took some willpower, I'll tell you that. As any guy will tell you what hormones are doing to you around that age. But that ended after just about a year and half and I'm glad I didn't accept her multiple advances and take that from her since it didn't work out.
Second girlfriend when I was 19. After a few months we floated around 2nd/3rd base. She got the ball rolling, so to speak.
I waited until I was 21 and was with my 3rd girlfriend for exactly 1 year before we went all the way, and I'm glad I waited until I was more emotionally and mentally mature.
It was worth it to wait.
