Everyone's different. Let me share my situation.
At 17 I met my first girlfriend. By 19 I went through the same questions you're going through: "I love this person but I'm only 19! Shouldn't I be getting busy about now? But I love this person." It tore me apart because I felt that in order to be honest with myself I should experience other people, but it took talking to my guidance counselor about it to see the light. The answer to the problem was a question: Wouldn't I always feel like I had to find out what was around the corner? No matter how many girls I'd been with?
In the end logic won and I saw that the need to sow the oats is a cycle that would always be closing in on itself. I never broke up with that girlfriend and we've been together from the beginning. We're getting on to 10 years together soon.
