Christianity and all the world religions teach that sex should only be within marriage. What you believe is up to your conscience. If you feel you made a wrong decision, just do your best to do the right thing the future. Anyway there are a lot of more important ways to be a good person than having your virginity intact. It's not like you can go back and change that.

I think NOT having sex before getting married is wrong! I also think NOT having sex with at least a few other people for comparison is wrong.
Think about it. Not getting some experience under your belt so you know how to please your loved one is wrong and irresponsible. Not figuring out if you are sexually compatible with the person you will be spending the rest of your life with is wrong and a supreme act of irresponsibility. Turning your wedding night into an awkward groping affair, as is usually the case when you have sex the first time, and putting so much pressure on that first night is just dumb. But hey, if the subsequent disappointment leads to a tense sexless marriage where sex, and only the joyless "let's get it over with" kind, is only had when its time to have children and that is your thing, be my guest.

From a religious (moral) perspective we are not "allowed" to have sex outside of marriage but you are correct in that most of us take that more as a suggestion than a convenant directive. The most compelling arguments go something like this: not everyone is religious; among those who are, religious beliefs differ drastically; and not everyone wants to ever be married. That being said, you have the same conundrum you've always had because no one can "give" you permission to disregard canonic law. What you're left with is your conscience (which is what you had when you started).

This is a question that many young people face these days. In my day it wasn't even talked about at all. We all were taught and believed that it was not something that was "allowed."
What the question really boils down to is a question of morality. Those that are brought up in a Christian family believe that it is not to be done.
I used to wonder why this was but there are very sound reasons for not having sex before you marry. One reason is because it takes away from the specialness of bonding with your husband/wife. There is a sharing that makes the "sex act" far more than merely having sex. I like the "old" saying of making love. Saying having sex seems so clinical and impersonal.
Then you have the reason of the woman/girl getting pregnant and the sex partner taking off and leaving mother and child in the lurch. There is no more honor among men that makes them want to do the right thing. They figure that you knew what you were doing before having sex so it was your problem. Then we have unwanted children that either end up aborted, given up for adoption, raised by grandparents, or raised by the mother who has to be very strong and give up a lot of things in her life.
While there is really no excuse in today's world for there to be unwanted pregnacies it still remains a fact that it happens very often. Birth control is readily available, most times free, and no rules that force a young lady to first have parental permission. For young men condoms are also readily available and are strongly suggested for any and all sexual encounters.
Promiscuity is an accepted way of life for most young men/women today. It is seldom even thought of as right or wrong anymore. Many believe that it is just another stage of growing up and many believe that it is just the expected thing to do.
That leaves us with one more very important reason to not have sex before marriage. Disease of STD's and worse, the fatal disease, AIDS. These are all legitimate reasons for abstenance. They say that when you have sex with another person you are not only having sex with them, but also with everyone that they have ever had sex with. That is a scary thought.
Either way it really comes down to what you really feel in your own heart and mind about whether or not to have sex before marriage. Though I would have to demand an HIV test be done on anyone that I was even considering of having sex with. And I would expect anyone to demand one from me also. It is far more important and necessary than pre-nuptial agreements.
I hope this helps you some and that the right decision will be easier for you to make. Good luck!

You're allowed to do whatever you want, it's whether you choose to do something or not. You already answered your own question, other peoples' opinions shouldn't matter, but how you feel about it should. If want to avoid all the responsibilities that come with sex, then wait until marriage, but if you feel you can handle them then have sex when the time is right. It's your body, your decision, and your morals.

NO, yet I do have faith in gaining know-how of to spell earlier intercourse fairly went the positioning promises a "examine SPELLING" option!!! I additionally ask your self with "Diane H's" therory, Is intercourse any greater secure after marriage and do the info she point out bypass away with marriage? some say you could test the object earlier you purchase it! That to me is own decision! having pronounced that, why purchase the cow if the milks unfastened?? individually, as long as you're actually not popping young ones out for something individuals to foot the invoice, i do no longer see any harm in 2 human beings sharing their love married or no longer! Furmones is a organic factor that extracts the animal forces from you! this is an involuntary function on the subject count of human nature.

You are allowed to do whatever you want when it comes to your body. However if you are a bible thumper...which im assuming you are because you think it's wrong...then nothing will really change your mind.
But also think about this...what if you wait until you get married and then your hubby's wang doodle is small or he just doesn't know what the hell to do with it...are you prepared to spend 50 years having horrible sex?

I couldn't answer this if my parents had waited.
The little accident that led to marriage, how sweet.
Regardless, unless you're wearing a chastity belt, which I highly doubt and the two of you are both old enough to consent legally then there is no problem with it.
But judging by your spelling and syntax I really don't think you're old enough to worry about such mature decisions.

Nobody allows anything.. Its only whether you want it..
For questions about your problems in your relationships, advice or just plain "steam let-off". The 'Doc as he calls himself in this website (blog rather) claims he can give sincere advice. the link is given below. He calls himself the relationship doctor. You can also email him your queries I guess.
I think its worth a look-see. Won't do no harm.
Cheers!!

It's your body you're allowed to do what you want to it. If you feel that sex before marriage is wrong then don't participate. You have to analyze your personal values and live according to them, not someone else's.
