My first kiss was when I was sixteen. I never really dated either, but I did have a brief encounter with this one boy. At the time I was a brand new christian, so I didn't understand how intimate kissing should be. He actually took me by surprise when he kissed me. We had just gone on a double date. I was saying goodbye to him at his car and he leaned over kissed me. I shortly afterward cuts things off. I never wanted to kiss him again. It was a horrible experience. I realize now the reason it was so horrible was because I didn't know him that well and it was meaningless.
Tim has been the only other person I've kissed since then. And we both decided very early into our relationship that we wanted to keep such an intimate thing for marriage. Kissing Tim was completely different than kissing Brian. I knew and respected Tim very much. Like I said it was very special-too special we decided for people who were dating. But that doesn't mean our rule applies to everyone.
I understand how you feel about the pressures that can be found in the public high school. I was made fun of by my friends because of my standards. I definitely wasn't unpopular, just different and got slack for it. But I also didn't have friends at that time who held to my convictions (and my standards were pretty liberal compared to what they are today!). Being a Christian teenager is a hard thing. That's why strong believing friends are vital. I'll be praying for you.
Don't worry about what anyone says. You are not missing out on anything unless it comes from God (and he won't let you miss anything you're intended to have). At the right time and with God's blessing it will take your breathe away.
