Hi Anon,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Depends, if someone is pressuring you into having sex and you are not wanting.  Here are some tips into letting them know. 

Say no and keep saying no as many times as it takes to get the point across.

Before the occasion arises, practice what you would say if someone pressured you to have sex.

Get out of a troublesome situation by walking away and staying away.

Use body language that helps make your point. Stand tall, speak clearly and confidently, and look the person straight in the eye when saying no.

Beware of "pressure lines" and respond accordingly. For instance if someone says "Everybody's doing it."
Your response could be something to the effect
"I'm not everybody. I don't have to do it because anyone else is."

Being true to yourself means being assertive when the time comes. Saying "no" won't always be easy but saying the right things at the right time will get your point across. 

If you want to avoid any sexual activity, you should avoid being alone with that person you feel attractive to.  Maybe hanging out with a group of friends, would also help to avoid the temptation.  Talk to a parent or a good friend, about how you feel.

 

Best,

Daisy
