"I trust him. I love him. I don't know what else there is?" Best friends Jennifer and Christina discuss their ideas on what constitutes a relationship that is healthy enough for sex and its corresponding responsibilities. Both have boyfriends and both believe they're ready. Jennifer and Carlos have been together for a year and Cristina and Bobby's relationship is three weeks old. The two girls show that they are responsible enough to get protection, but their respective sexual encounters lead to decidedly different results.

They could have went to a hotel...why at parties?! At a
hotel, no one can "walk in to the room" unless they had a
key or break down the door... I think it's childish to plan
to have sex at a party (Just my opinion)
hello
