No sex outside marriage? what would you think?

regardless of how attractive you might be inside and out, you will probably have to be EXTREMELY patient in meeting a guy that's willing to meet your requirement. if you really want only platonic friendship until marriage comes again(if it does), then undoubtably there are some guys out there. just be prepared to wait a long time.

I have been divorced now for almost 5 years. i have remained abstinent since. If I ever meet that special person I might sleep with them prior but would rather wait for marriage.

I would have no problem with it. As long you don't have any sexual hang ups and are open to being sexual. In other words, you're up for anything, and everything, within the boundaries of that marriage. I would be happy to date a woman who has that kind of conviction. It says a lot a lot about her ability to do whats right in the face of temptation. And believe me, I would be all about temptation. ...lol

I'd say you are missing out on one of the most beautiful things in the world.

Uh I think it's a given that you are not a virgin if you are a Mother!! If I were a guy and you showed this double standard for yourself - I'd be a little put off!!

Uh, just how is it a double standard, if she became a mother while within the bounds of her marriage?

I would simply walk on by for witholding sex for the sake of contrived insitution is an alarm bell of immense proportion in this world I choose not to live detached from reality.


So anyone says that "I can't because my religion says so" you are just a sheep that is blind and follow whatever someone else tells you


I think that requirement is absolutely ridiculous, even for a young woman who has some fairy tale notion that saving her virginity for marriage is un realistic.


(I had one guy who told me that was 'stupid' since I was not a virgin and had been married before.) He is right.


i think someone should introduce you to the 21st century to be honest. a marriage certificate wont change the way you feel about someone. married or not, you should have sex with someone when it feels right, not when an out dated religious view tells you its ok to because your married.

if you were to do that, you might as well only have sex when your trying to become pregnant as the church condemns sex that is only for pleasure...thats just my 2 cents, glad i got it off my chest though!!!


Why devote yourself to a God that may or may not exist and live by pre-historic standards, it's 2008.. In my opinion no sex before marriage is a big joke.


There's certainly no shortage of arrogant, egotistical, totally bigoted folks out there in POF-land!

OP, to be honest, it wouldn't be for me either. But stick to your beliefs, there aren't many that have principles like that today, including all the BIGOTS quoted above!

I totally respect your point of view.

Just an observation but it seems to me like 90 percent of this website is about people hassling about sex.

In theory, this works because you don't have anything to compare it to. Once you start having sex with different people, the comparisons are inevitable, and this competitiveness is what IMO, causes most problems, at least for young people.

We've all heard the old saying : Don't buy the car until you take it for a good long test drive.I'm sure we've all heard about loveless and sexless marriages, and I for one, don't want any part of that.

The double standard is a problem. If someone has already lost it, regardless of the circumstances, then they shouldn't call themselves a virgin. But its you're life and you're body, so just be honest about what you want and what you believe, and it will be fine.

As long as I can have a divorce if you suck in bed, I can deal with it.

It should be noted, that while you wouldn't want me going off to have sex with someone else, you would have to expect me to pull out the porn and do the one-handed shuffle whenever the need arises.

I looked up "the bases", and noted first base was strictly kissing, no touching. What's the point of getting to "first base", if you can't go any further. To be honest, you wouldn't even be getting to first base with me, as I'd be turned off by someone who set some pre-defined boundaries because some book (the bible) that was written by man, tells you how it's supposed to be.

It's your choice to wait until marriage, and your prior experience should have no basis on how you want to continue with your life. I don't think religion should have anything to do with it, as you should be making your own decisions, instead of being given some arbitrary restrictions on natural human behavior.
