Fun Things to do Without Doing "It"

Just because you want to wait to have sex doesn’t mean you can’t date. Bring friends along and make it a group date. Here are some fun date ideas:

• Go bowling
• Go roller-skating
• Play miniature golf
• Play pool
• Go to an amusement park
• Go to a concert
• Go to a museum
• Go ice skating
• Go go-cart racing
• Play basketball
• Go for a walk in the park

Here are some activities you can do to keep your mind off of having sex:

• Working out – It can help build muscle and burn off extra energy. Plus, it helps you be more focused and think clearer.

• Running – Burn energy by increasing your heart rate. Running burns fat in the entire body. It also helps bring more oxygen to the brain, which will aid you to think clearer. In addition, it produces a chemical called serotonin, which makes you feel happier and more confident.

• Sports – Join a sport like basketball, baseball, football, volleyball, track or wrestling. Athletics will help you become more disciplined and aid you in building self-confidence. You can join a sports team at your school or any local organization that has athletic programming available for youth like the Boys & Girls Club, and the YMCA or YWCA.

• Volunteer – Volunteering helps you feel good about yourself. It’s also a great way to help your community. There are many organizations that need volunteers, including the animal shelter and RSVP, or the Retired Senior Volunteer Program.

• Find a hobby – Find an activity that you like to do. For example, reading, drawing, building things. Hobbies are a great way to keep busy. Even if your hobby is playing video games. Do whatever makes you happy.
