why wait
2007-03-21 06:20:45 · answer #1 · answered by traveller 7 · 4⤊ 3⤋
I actually do believe its best to wait for marriage. I am not into your whole god reasoning but that is your beliefs. I did not wait for marriage and neither did anyone else i know. Looking back on how it complicates everything in relationships and in future relationships i wish i would have waited for my wife. I think the pressure that sex puts on relationships in society today really ruins couples and there are more consequences then if you just wait. Marriages in the old days lasted and a lot of them waited until marriage, now most people have so much history going into new relationships that jealousy and baggage can ruin what would otherwise be a good relationship. Anyways its not going to change and times are different but that is just my opinion

Sex (along with money and children), is among the top fights that couples have, married or not. Why would you want to get married to someone if you're not sure that you two are sexually compatible? Sex is supposed to be fun, and it's a huge part of any healthy relationship; it takes time to learn how to please a partner.
I think it's silly to wait until marriage to have sex, but I'm not going to criticize a person who makes that choice. I also don't think premarital sex has anything at all to do with morals, virtues, self respect, or any of that. Sex and love aren't the same (as supported by your assumption that you can love someone without having sex).

I don't believe in god, so I've got no one to follow but myself. While sex CAN be a part of love, and love be a part of sex, they are not always one and the same. "True love" is not a requirement when it comes to having and enjoying sex with someone. I believe one shouldn't "wait for marriage", but should instead go out and experience what life and love have to offer. There are many different types of relationships one can enjoy, and to state that marriage is the only "valid" form of sexual relationship is, IMO, simple- and single-minded.

You are one of the few on here that i have heard say this! I totally agree sex should be saved for marriage! I think what your church did was awesome! I think i will suggest that for my girls at church! Thanks for the great idea! We should always follow God! (now be ready- you are going to get tons of crude comments about what you believe) Stay strong and never care what anyone else says. There are lots of very immature adults in the world!!!Thanks for being a good example!

I agree with what God says. I also think it is only a choice that you make though. I had sex before I got married, I wish I would have waited. I don't sit around and regret or beat myself up about it or anything. But to answer your question, I agree with it, but it was my choice not to live by it.

I am more open to having sex before marriage.(I'm not saying have sex with a bunch of people) I guess because for me I am a very sexual person. I wouldn't want to marry and then find out that the sex with my partner was awful. I honestly wouldn't want to be married to someone I wasn't totally into but I respect your choice and I truely believe that everyone is different. What works for you, good.

If you choose to wait, that's your choice and your business. I think people should do what they feel is best for them, regardless of what mythology others preach at them.
Sex and love are two different things...you can have one without the other, or they can be together...and it's completely untrue that you cannot love someone that you have sex with if you aren't married to them. *shakes head*
I don't ascribe to your mythology therefore see no reason to live my life to please a made-up god figure. If that works for you, rock on.

If people want to do what is right, they will wait until after they are married before they have sex. Selling yourself for fun is disrespectful to you and the person you are with. I think the rings are a great idea! I want one!

every religion is different, and they all have slightly different rules. But in the end, its what you believe in, and what you think is right. Especially in these types of matter, Only one thing holds true in life when it comes to this, a marriage should be honest willing to comprise, understand ,forgive, and most of all be able to put trust in each other.
