I was 25 years old when I lost my virginity. It was my intention to wait unti I was married. But now I keep beating myself up over it. How do I forgive myself and start over?

What's done is done. There is no sense in dwelling on the past. You made a mistake . . it happens to everyone. Just make a new promise to yourself that you will now wait until your wedding day.

Life is about growing up and learning from past mistakes. Hind sight is always 20/20 and now you have learned a lesson from a past decision. It sounds like you have made a decision to not redo that same act until you have accomplished other goals, i.e. getting married. Good luck and never beat yourself up over mistakes you have made just live and learn.

Look on the bright side of things. If your first time was enjoyful and full of love then all are o.k. Nothing has changed you are the same. If you don't a have nice time make a wish that next will be better. If it helps reject this part of your life and go on and like it had never happened. Good luck!!!

There's never any point in looking at the past, but make sure you don't let it affect your future. It seems like once girls give it up, every time it's a little easier. A couple years later and they're having no-name one-night stands. Then you'll really be beating yourself up!

Well i am afraid to tell you that one you lost your virginity you can't never get it back. you can stop having sex for a long periods of time but that still won't change the fact though. you'll just have to learn to forgive and forget i hope that helped!!!

Don't harp on the past, live for now and tommorow. Let it go and move on. Hang out where you will find someone nice with similar views on life as you have. If he loves you he really won't care about your past mistakes and will respect your wishes if you want to wait.

We all make mistakes we regret Hon. Beating yourself up over it won't bring it back.You owe it to yourself to forgive yourself and move ahead. The fact that you have regrets shows that you are a good person and have learned from your mistake.

If you are that bothered by it, wait until you're married to do it again.
You will just have to accept the fact that you're human. Humans make mistakes. Forgive yourself. I forgive you.

You waited 10 or more years than most girls. Don't beat yourself up over it. It was bound to happen sooner or later.

Relax. I think its important we understand our past failures in order to keep us diligent in the future. BUT do not let them diminish your quality of life. You've got to acknowledge it but also just let go. You cannot change whats been done, but you can move on.
