Peer Pressure

So much peer pressure nowadays in our lives. One would think peer pressures only happen among teenagers and young adults. Peer pressure to have sex. Just because one is single doesn't mean that they sleep around. I, for one. I just ended my two and a half year engagement three months ago. And yes, I don't have anyone right now. And yes, I haven't had sex for that span of time. What's the big deal? Medical studies suggest that sex is very important in our lives, etc, etc. Well, that's good if you have a partner. And no. Just because friends tell me to "lower" my standards so I can have a healthy lifestyle, it doesn't mean I want to do it. Sure, I think about it. It makes me question my moral code, the absurdity of it, as other people suggest. It has become a daily reminder for me, everytime I'm asked how's my love life, that I am a sex-starved person. Poor me, no one wants me. Well, it's been my choice not to look around. Or even plan for it. Sex for me, is a wonderful thing. Supposed to be shared by two people with common goals. It would be nice if they're both in love - with each other! Call me old-fashioned but I'm sticking to it. Peers, no pressure please. I'm waiting for someone special to share my heart, my mind and body.
