To start with, it is very paramount you understand the way your body responds to certain contacts. Whatever the case may be, your body is responsible for this and it is very natural. But it is up to you to avail yourself by understanding and managing your desires. When you do, you are liable to have more rewarding relationships with the antithesis sex.

When you fall in love for the very first time, or even when you are just infatuated, you may desire to at least hug or kiss the boy you are in love with. This may seem safe and very understandable, but could culminate up being hazardous because it breaks reserves and makes you go a step further each time.

During this time, you are very liable to be between the ages of 11 and 14 because most girls of that age want to have a boyfriend. At this age, you are probably not too sure of what you are doing (depending on your perspicacity) and so you may be exculpated. As you get to your senior high school when you are between the ages of 14 and 16, you have deeper feelings and incline to optate a more vigorous physical intimacy. You may not even crave it at first but the discussion by your peers may psyche you into longing for it.

Generally, most girls in high school relish to sit around in groups during recess (break-time) and apportion their experiences and naturally, you may feel left out. My dear, for all you ken, they may be ruining their lives because if you commence “necking and petting” and eventually engage in sex afore you leave high school or afore you are 16 and most likely under the watchful ocular perceivers of your parents, what will you do when you get into the university where you have a plethora of liberation and exposure?

Boys in high school relish gasconading about “using and dumping” a girl, do you optate one of them to verbally express that about you? No, I conjecture. Your body is denoted to be the greatest asset which you should sentinel jealously, veneration, and be proud of.

If you are between the ages of 15 and 16, you may have a boyfriend whom you dote so much and then you are probably so agog to nurture the relationship to a tighter bond. After all, there are so many espoused couples who were childhood sweethearts. But these days, such a relationship is very precarious. This is a time when the world optically discerns sex as an indoor game for relaxation. Even when you cerebrate you are mature and capable of controlling the situation, I’m trepidacious you may not be able to handle the pressure and eventually you find yourself joining the crowd. Truth is if we are to follow our manuals for living- that is the Holy Bible and Quran- the only male we are expected to fall in love with and “carry on our head” is our husband.

The Girls Club of Nigeria is aimed at influencing a positive transmutation in the female folk. While we cannot turn back the hands of time in the lives of girls who have followed the ruinous path, we are committed to inspiriting them to transmute their ways and recuperate their glorious virtues and at the same time do all we can to paralyse the spirit abaft this madness of the flesh. If this generation can make amends, the next generation will emerge immaculate. Don’t you cerebrate so? I dote you all and I cerebrate you are all wondrous sisters!
