After knowing each other a few weeks, we went camping. The closeness of such a retreat encouraged us to share feelings and talk about things that might have gone unsaid. We lacked contraceptives, and so had to wait longer than we might have. Yes, we talked about what if she became pregnant. The choices, and the philosophy of life and religion and society all come together in considering the act of sex, as well as two individuals who don't really know the answers, but it is good to agree on beliefs.
