I am a Christian and I am abstaining from sex until I get married. No ones opinion will change what I believe. I simply would like others’ opinions on this matter.

Cool? No
Acceptable? ABSOLUTELY!
Staying true to your beliefs is important!
If you want to wait, that is exactly what you should do!
Its the cooliest thing in the world!!!
you go, girl!
Yes.
Very cool.
Your future husband will be sooooooooo happy to know that you’ve saved yourself just for them.

I think it is a very personal choice for each individual. But I think that it is wonderful that you want to wait till marriage.
I’m not religious at all I’m doing the same thing. There’s nothing wrong with it.
dunno. :c)
Good for you, who cares what other people say-its your belief so go for it.
I’m hearing about more and more people that are doing that
one of my friends he’s 20 is a virgin and he’s engaged now but in no way are they going to do it before-or so he says
Also a coworker of mine who’s 22 and male is a virgin, he’s been with his giflriend for three years and it’s gonna be at least another 2 before they get married are both saving themselves for each other.
I say good for you! You cool in my book anyday.
Most people wouldn’t consider it cool, but I think it is really great! Good for you! Why would anyone want to go sleeping around with all the wrong people when you can save yourself for the one you truly love?
I think it’s great and so admirable that you’re doing that. Nowadays it takes a really special person to do something like that. Kudos to you! :]

agree with matt…your first time of sex is either going to be amazing… spiritually…..now pshyically not so much–it will hurt, u prolly wont know what to do in some sitiations so idk take some sex ed class or sumthin
but seriously sex is an amazing thing
yes if that’s what you believe, then its really cool! No matter what people say, if you want this you have great morals and values. And the lucky man who does have sex with you will know hes loved by a beautiful wife that god has chosen. good luck!
As a guy, I’m glad to hear this. We don’t need another teenage pregnancy or more loveless sex. The wait will have such a great payoff. In society as a whole, it is regarded by the popular people as uncool. However, the silent majority will applaud your good values. Good luck.
yes it’s cool
please answer mine
yes
this is Gods plan… He knows what He is talking about and to listen and obey … to be willing and obedient is the best.
Um, no it’s not cool. You make it seem like a fad or something.
But if someone wants to abstain from sex, then go ahead. I have nothing to judge on them. It’s their belief.
The only problem with that is that a lot of people who do that end up getting married just because they are young and horny.
On one extreme you’re a religious spiky-metal-panty person and on the other you’re dried up and flappy by18. Neither is cool. You are what you are, that’s cool. Good Luck!
I think it is VERY cool that you want to do that. My brother is 25 and still waiting. I didn’t, but wish I HAD!! (I’m 26 and lost my virginity at 15. I think that was waaaay too young. Even though I told the guy no, I didn’t stand up strong enough for my beliefs. Kudos to you for doing that.) I am dating this great guy now and I plan on waiting until he marries me to have sex. I want it to be sacred and special–not just some casual thing. It is a very personal and intimate thing, and a gift from God, and I want it to be treated that way from now on. I also know that if I do this, it will be worth it and more amazing than ever before because it is what I was supposed to do, not what I ‘felt’ like doing. It is the person God made me to be. Someone who cherishes His gifts–not someone who uses them carelessly. I hope you continue the way you are going, and I believe I can say that because I’ve been on both sides of the fence. You’re not missing out on anything–keep waiting. You go girl!!!!
It’s awesome that you are being chaste! You’ll save yourself a lot of heartache and decrease the chance of getting sexually transmitted diseases. Keep on waiting for the right person!
I am 25 years old and I converted to the Catholic Church 4 years ago after watching EWTN. Before watching EWTN I didn’t know the meaning of the word chastity. Learning about chastity really helped me have greater respect for myself as a woman. Anyone can practice chastity, at any age, married or single. It’s never to late to be chaste and it doesn’t matter what happened in the past. I practice chastity and I plan on giving my virginity to my husband if I ever marry.
My parents have been faithfully married for 34 years. My grandparents have been faithfully married for 55+ years. I was at my great grandparents 65th wedding anniversary party (now they have both died). All my relatives would agree that waiting for the right spouse is worth it!
