Re: Waiting until marriage. - September 23rd 2010, 09:10 PM

Personally it is not my choice but I respect you for making it for yourself.
I feel that for me sex is a big part of a relationship (although obviously not the most important) so I'd like to know about that part of my relationship with someone when I'm ready to commit to them for life.

I personally think that's smarter than waiting for marriage, because of the reason you said, and also because sexual compatibility is so important in a successful long tern relationship.

If you'd really like to wait, Kayla, then it truly is your choice. Just be aware that your opinion might drastically change when you begin to develop sexual feelings in a few years. I see no problem in your decision, even if there is no logical explanation for it...if you feel it is right in your heart, then go for it. Who is there to stop you?

When I was 12 I decided to wait till marriage then when I was 14 I had sex, so it just depends on how you think at the time what you choose. When I was 12 I thought sex and kissing were disgusting. But when I was 14 I decided I was ready. I don't regret not waiting but I do think that now I'll wait until marriage but I can't be sure of that since today is today and who knows what tomorrow will be like, let alone so far ahead into my future.

Re: Waiting until marriage. - September 25th 2010, 04:12 AM

Personally, I wouldn't wait until marriage.

People try to deny this, but sex is a fundamental part of a relationship with someone else. Bad sex or severe differences in what one partner likes/doesn't like can and will ruin loving relationships. Emotional compatibility and sexual compatibility are both extremely important to know before you make a commit like marriage, if you ask me.

If you're willing to marry someone and devote the rest of your lives to them, I can't quite understand why you're not willing to have sex with them. 'I'll marry you' seems like a much bigger commitment than sex to me.

At the same time, there's nothing wrong with waiting until you're married if that's what you want. I respect that. I just hope people realize it's not gonna be that beautiful passionate lovemaking you probably imagine.
