Is it normal to withhold your virginity?
I don't consider myself as a religious person, but I do wave my hat to women who wait for sex until marriage.
I've been thinking about doing the same. Lately I've watched Jason Everts youtube videos where he talks about women cherishing our bodies, the beauty of saving yourselves, and the small domino affect of giving in to temptation. It all sounds wonderful, but I'm a little hesitant. The future is never written in stone.
So far my friends and I have started a pack-no sex during high school until we graduate. Well that check point is done. Now I want to give my virginity and "one less worry/responsibility" another check point like get through freshman year of college without giving it up and sounding like a cliche. I passed the legal check point- "No sex until you're of legal age- 18?".
I'm starting to run out of check points...I don't want to seem like an extremely traditional and old fashion girl, but the security is comforting. I don't have to deal with any STDs or STIs, i'll know a player v.s. a well rounded boyfriend, i won't have any pregnancy scares, and I'd set a good example for my kids ( in the FAR away future).
I mean am I going to shun and burn any other girl that gives it up to her beloved boyfriend? Nope. It's her decision and if she feels he deserved it by all means who am I to judge? Love is Blind in some cases, other times it could lead you to a nice memory.
I'm just one of those girls who feels what she has shouldn't be thrown over her shoulder to the wolves like a piece of meat. If and when I give my boyfriend, fiance, husband, myself I don't want any regrets.
So am I coco for Coco Puffs? Are my attempts futile?
