I’m 26 and a virgin and never gone past kissing. I want to save myself for marriage
Everybody time is precious and now is the time for people to have an close relationship with God while they are still living and with that being said everyone don't let this moment pass without doing the right thing if anyone wants to change their life right now all they have to do is allow God to come into their life and make God leader of their life. For if they do they will become a winner in life, God will give them inspiration, God will help them experience true happiness, experience long lasting success all they have to do is make the best choice of their life right now and be inspired to start a close relationship with God by them praying to God everyday for his help in every decision of their life everyday and in every situation of their life everyday for I guarantee if they do this everyday then their life will get better, they will have more peace, they will be more successful, they will have more happiness, and all their dreams will come true that’s because when they pray to God then God will make all good things possible for them and they must not forget to read the “Holy Bible” everyday and a great place for them to start in the holy Bible is (Psalms 1) and everyday after that read a chapter in Psalms till they finish all the chapters in Psalms then after that start on (Proverbs 1) then everyday after that read a chapter in Proverbs till they finish all the chapters in Proverbs and after that read every chapter of the Holy Bible until they finish it for it will change their life in the most amazing way
You lady should be ashamed of yourself, encouraging premarital sex, shame on you. A very bad role model.
This is a question/request for The Doctors show. Could you do a segment dealing with virginity in older people, such as those in their 30s/40s, and sex surrogacy? Legal implications of sex surrogacy, etc.
So when are you going to give Mar*sha the sugery you promised?? Disgusting how you took advantage of her to make money, while lying about covering her surgeries.
Which channel on tv show
It's WAY HIGHER than 3%!!! I waited until I got married, and it's definitely worth the wait!
“I lost mine when I got married”
Everybody else: “awwwwwwww, yayyyyy!”
The good is it adds experience for when you do meet the one
Hmmm.. if you didn’t have a choice in the matter, don’t worry, the rest of your sexual life is not ruined, you just need to work harder to get to that safe happy healthy space, but it does not mean it is messed up for rest of your life!
I’m a medical student and 24 years old ….keeping my virginity for special one…
Waiting till marriage is SO honorable!! I’m so happy my husband and I waited till we got married. Both of us were virgins and guess what, we are still married 15 years now and going strong! Whoop 🙌🏻
I was not planning to get married as a teenager, so I just looked for a guy that turned me on
Uhhm… allow me to finish the sentence more PROPERLY for you: "You really should just WAIT TILL YOUR MARRIED and that's it….because it is the Will of God for such matters to be handled PROPERLY….God's way…. Have a nice day….
My husband and I were both virgins until marriage. Our intimacy has evolved in time. We’ve experienced different seasons throughout these 8 years, but at this point in time our love has matured and we have a deeper appreciation for one another.
I say, find someone you can love and forgive. One who can love and forgive you back. Sex is so personal. Do it with someone who is committed to caring about you wholeheartedly, and vice versa.
"you don't know what you're looking for"
how will you know until you have experiences?
Must I bleed b4 I show that am a virgin during the first sex
For those saying wait till married no BC now at days marriages don't even last 😂😂😂
My 4th tip would be: Work up to it! Instead of going into intercourse straight from kissing, take your time and space out oral sex, foreplay and other things over a period of time. It'll help build up comfortableness between your partner, confidence in yourself, and will help you realize if you can/want to go all the way!
💯💯
