It's more meaningful if you wait until marriage.

It's wrong. Physically you may be ready for it (in that you can perform a sexual act) , but it goes against everything in your human psyche. When you have sex outside marriage you have worry, guilt, self-loathing, uncertainty about the future of the relationship, concern about STDs, pregnancy, the financial, emotional, psychological, and maturity-oriented decisions you might be forced to make. Spiritually, if you were raised in church, you know that sexual relations outside marriage are sin. To top all that off, there is NO safe sex. "protection" doesn't always protect.

I had sex before marriage, but I married the man I lost my virginity to. So take from that what you can.

1 Corinthians 6:18-20 & 1 Corinthians 7:1-2
"Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband."
Our lives as Christians are a living witness to others and we cannot break the laws of God without hindering others from coming to Christ. We must live our lives in purity before a sinful and wicked world. We should not be living according to their standards but according to God's standard in the Bible. No couple should live together outside the bonds of marriage.
Many say they live together before marriage to see if they are compatible as they don't want to divorce. This may sound like a justifiable reason for committing the sin of fornication, but in God's eyes it is still sin. Statistics however, show that those who live together before marriage are more likely to get a divorce than those who do not. Living together shows a total lack of trust in God and a failure to commit to Him the choosing of a mate. Christians who are living in this situation are out of the will of God and need to repent and seek God as to whether this person is the right one for them. If it is God's will for them to be together they should marry. Otherwise, they need to change their living arrangements.
The sin of fornication is not only defined as illicit sexual intercourse between those who are not married but also is an umbrella for other sexual sins as well.
God gave us the laws in the Bible for our good. They are not meant to deny us any good thing but they are given so we can enjoy the proper sexual relationship in the proper time. If we obey the words of the Bible and "flee fornication" and glorify God in our bodies, the Lord will bless us beyond what we could believe.

i tink it really depends on morals, how you were raised, but i really think it should be whenever you feel the time is right. i think ti should be when you are in a serious, long term relationship..
