Just received my first relationship talk from the parents, at age 19. How horribly awkward were yours?

If you're 19, and they are just now having this type of discussion with you, I'd say they missed the boat. ;)

Well, I wasn't really talking to my mom for "the talk", just to let her know what was up.

And yeah, they totally missed the boat.

"I just don't want to see some girl completely ruining your dreams. "
Sounds like she might be speaking from experience. People often project themselves onto other people's motives.
As far as sex, it's a little late for "the talk". Sounds like obfuscation, confusion and guilt is the method of communication.

But I will say this: if and when you have sex with anyone, make damned sure you wear a condom, unless you intend to father a child.

her advice is very very sound. What she really means is not to accidently inpregnate her. I think that's what she really meant. Again, you're really young, and have your whole life ahead of you. Don't ruin it by accidently fathering a child early.

d00d, how old are you? My mother let me "be friends" with girls in my room when i was 13. She would even leave the house. Are you really 10 and trying to be 19?

never had the talk.

I remember when I was about to come out of the closet to my dad one day, and he interrupted me and said that whatever I was about to say, he didn't want to know. heh.

oh btw, when I had this talk w/ my Dad, he said "are you a virgin?" I didn't answer due to the initial shock, and he said "man, how old are you? 20 now? hah, you can't beat your dad!! I got laid @ 17! hahaha!" *points finger @ me and laughs*. I'm dumbfounded. I had to defend my honor and said "no, it was a year ago, i was 19."

He then proceeded to say "i got drunk when i was 16!!"

ok, obviously, my Dad was joking around, and I was old enough at the time to understand what's right and wrong and not to follow mischievious Dad's adventures when he was young. I think my parents did a pretty damn good job of raising me and my bro. If I had kids like me and my bro, I'd be friggin happy as hell (healthy dudes w/ respectable college degrees and jobs).

So ya, you're in a good place to live right? Your parents provided everything for you and your education. You should take their advice to heart. It was a lot easier w/ my Dad since he was very very open about the subject. I mean, i got caught masturbating by my dad 3 times!!! damn he's so sneaky! He knows when a kid will do it! lol. Of course the first time he took appropriate disciplinary action of catching me watching pr0n :p.

When he caught me when I was an independent, well...let's just say it was wierd for me, but he said "dude, that site's free?! where'd u get it?!" :confused:

My parents first chat with me about dating was very short:

Dad: "Son wear a condom if you have sex." then he whispered me so my mom couldnt here "make me proud."
Mom: "dont embarris me."
Me: "ok"
Then I walked away.

Thats all the advice I got without me starting a conversation.

My talk went like this:
Dad:"Condoms are in the drawer, behind the socks. If you need more, check the drawer underneath."

:laugh:

and this thread can add or subtract from a society where morals are decayed beyond naked comprehension; don't have sex before marriage, it's as clear as that

you have more to lose than to gain. mind over matter, children.
