First off, please do not use the dreadful word, or it's abbreviated form, especially at the beginning of a sentence. This word is of uncertain Choctaw or Bantu origin, and is derived from 'Oll Korrect' or 'Old Kinderhook'. It is superfluous, meaning that it is not needed or unnecessary, and it is often confusing or conveys a mediocre quality to the reader.
In this, "About two weeks ago, a good friend of mine invited me to my first party." This would have been preferable and satisfactory.
As for your problem, I agree with the other comments, above.
However, I would make an ample opportunity to converse with Lexi. I think that you need to ask yourself, why you are not ready for a sexual relationship, as yet; something that you didn't elucidate on, in this. 'Just because' and 'I don't want to', are not reasons.
Then, sit down with Lexi, and explain the real reasons, truthfully, why you don't feel ready (write these down, if you need to). Next, explain that you would like to remain on friendly terms with her and her other friends. Then, you will need to negotiate, what constitutes a 'friendly' relationship, rather than a 'sexual' relationship. (Which behaviours and acts are mutually acceptable).
IIN I have no idea how to break up with her...

'Its abbreviated form.' No apostrophe required.

Correct. I will try to use the possessive form (its), rather than the contraction (it's), in future.
Thank you.
