What if I meet someone and I'm considering changing my mind about not having sex right now?

<p>It&rsquo;s perfectly natural to be attracted to someone, but if you&rsquo;re seriously considering having sex after a period of abstinence, it&rsquo;s important to take some time to think about your reasons for waiting. If you realize it&rsquo;s still important to you not to have sex right now, you should talk to your new partner about your reasons and arrange firm limits on what you&rsquo;re comfortable doing with them. On the other hand, if you decide you do want to have sex (but you don&rsquo;t want to get pregnant), it&rsquo;s a good idea to start looking into a birth control method that&rsquo;s right for you before you do so.<br><br> Either way, you might want to have some <a href="/method-explorer/condom/basic-info">condoms</a> and <a href="/method-explorer/emergency-contraception/basic-info">EC</a> on hand just in case. </p>
