How hard do you think it is to stay a virgin till marriage?

Question

I really want to and I plan on it, mainly because i'm Catholic.

But I have this constant fear that because of that I will never get married because Guys dont want to wait that long..

Were you a virgin till marriage, or do you plan on being one till marriage?

Answer 1

I'm not very attractive. Thus, it is quite easy to stay a virgin since no one thinks me attractive. Marriage, haha, yeah right.

Trust me, I think I'm ugly enough

But for you, just be patient and loving to your body and your spirit.

You'll be fine.  

Answer 2

Just don't think just because a guy is Catholic (stated because of the first poster) he will be able to follow his  religion's belief, we are all sinners so be careful. It's possible, but rare. God willed, it can happen so do not fear and follow your goals.

Answer 3

I tried waiting until i was 23, then after some depressing moments in my life i realized there were no women my age and a virgin...so i gave up and let it go...then a year later i met my now wife who happened to be a 20 year old virgin and although i felt like a complete *ss i was still grateful i got to be honored with such a wonderful woman.

Is it hard?  In this day and age it's hard to find decent and patient people not attuned to needing 'experienced lovers'.  But to stay a virgin it isn't that hard, depends on your sexual appetite and how great your self-willpower is.  It wasn't hard for me, i just gave it away though because i had way too much heartbreak and got tired of being disappointed with worthless and foul women who used the sh*t out of me.  Good men will wait for you....so for those that don't they aren't worth your time...no matter HOW nice they are.

I waited for my wife....i didn't push s*x on her, i let her know always that if she wants to lose it, it's HER CHOICE, and i can wait because she's worth it.....she decided she wanted to honor me with her virginity before marriage, and i made sure she'll never regret the decision for as long as we live :).    

Answer 4

I'm staying a virgin until I marry my bf

He doesn't mind at all which makes me really happy

I'm not gonna lie...there are temptations, but we both know where to draw the line

Answer 5

you must tell him no ahead of time, nice if you can.  you must have it set in stone, or the temptation will be much greater when the moment arises.

what i mean is, you must make it a moral right now that you will not give up on, and if you have too, let him now that.

it might be hard, but if he really cares about you, he will wait.

Answer 6

I am the same! I am in my mid wenties , still a virgin, and hope to remain one until marriage. I won't lie, it is hard at times, because I feel like it is harder to find guys nowadays who are willing to wait and it would be easier to have a steady boyfriend if I were to give up my virginity (ive never had a serious boyfriend so the thought has crossed my mind often) however... when i think that i could sleep w. a guy who later dumps me and then I wouldn't be a virgin anymore, it makes me feel like then i would be giving something up that makes me special. ive told guys before that im a virgin and they really respected me for it and said its rare, but in a good way. i think its a true test to see whether a guy really loves you for you, because obviously if a guy is in it for the long haul, he doesn't have the ulterior motive to have s*x and that's it. so thats why i want to hold onto my virginity. is it hard, yes, but in the long run, am hoping its well worth the wait!!  

Answer 7

I wasn't but I think that how hard it will be very much depends on your social group. If you want a guy that will wait, a catholic man will be a good start, because he shares that value. If your community supports it, it'll be a lot easier than if you were the odd man out for waiting.
