right if you are in a committed relationship
wrong if you are using it as a recreational sport...just for fun and sleeping with many people

Sex before marriage is by far the worst thing one can do. In my opinion, this is one of the reasons the divorce rate is so high in this country. If one was sexually active before marriage, then what makes marriage so sacred. To a pre sexually active person, marriage is no longer anything but a longer term relationship that can be dumped at the first sign of trouble and be picked up again with someone else. Also, I think that when you have sex with someone, you surrender a little piece of your "self" each time. How then can you fully devote/give yourself to your spouse if there are others that you have already given small bits of your "self" to? All I know, is that my wife will have all of me and never have to wonder about who my true devotion is to.

My husband was a virgin at our wedding at age 33. I lost my virginity at age 14 and had several partners. If I could do it over again, I would've waited. Why? Because it's truly something special for him to make love to me. It's special for me, too, but on another level. He's one of many. I haven't been with anyone since before we met. It's not the same though.
The wrong or right thing... I'm conflicted on that. I know what the Bible says. My husband believes that the Bible says that the sex is the marriage. We still chose to wait. I promised myself a year of celebacy once upon a time. I took that year when we were dating, and by the time my year was up, we were six weeks before the wedding. We had waited that long; what's another month and a half?

I am not for that "save yourself until you are married" I just don't see how that can work... However I really am not for shacking up with someone before marriage at all!!!!!! Nor am I for jumping in bed with a guy after knowing him for 2 hours (or 6months) for that matter. The fact of the matter is you should not have sex with anyone you have not decided you want to marry. Sex is not a hobby. The worst consequence of sex before marriage is getting pregnant. There are way too many kids on this earth being raised in family with only one parent for no good reason.

Age has allot to do with it. If you are in your mid twenties or older you are more or less expected to be active. Sex is no big thing and although you should not have lots of partners there is no harm in taking a ride before you walk down the isle. Better to know what you are doing and feel comfortable than have high anxiety over something so common. In today's society the morality issue is not what it used to be. Love and sex are supposed to go together but that is not a definite. Sex when there is love is usually more satisfying but sex without love is also enjoyable. Set your standards and do not go on word of mouth. Everyone has to find their time to give it up and words should not be necessary. Things should progress without anyone asking for it.

Neither, Sex has major consequences. It can be a lot of fun but it can cause a lot of damage. It will change your life forever.
Marriage gives you two people to deal with the consequences but they have to be the right two people. A bad marriage can be worse than having sex before being married.
Go to a library and read up about sex and marriage and decided for yourself.

I have to say I agree with the others! I did not sleep with anyone before I was married 15 years ago. An man how crazy, funny, amazing and man what a memory was my wedding night! My husband on the other hand had slept a few people. He remembers things like how small the room was for the money and that there was no blow dryer in the room. So ya just wait it will be something that ties you togather and gives you a memory he will never be able to share with anyone else!! Oh an it may even be fun to write him a note an tell him how much you thank him for loving you so much now and making your dreams come true! By waiting to share this with you and you with him!!! pray'n for ya, love songbird

Not good,
when you are married, you can have all the benifits of that then so why rush it.
1. it would feel aweward if your future spouse ask you about your past.
2. Diseases
3. Better marriage
((my husband was my one and only, we were in our 20's when we got married))

DEFINITELY WRONG. it is prohibited in God'standard although it seems normal in today"s world. anyway, why hurry. there is a proper time for everything...after marriage, you can have it...having not to engaged in pre-marital sex is a gift you owe to yourself..it is for your own benefits. for your inner peace, for your clear conscience and self esteem. it is also the most precious gift you could give to your husband someday
