Did any of you save yourself for marriage only to be very disappointed when it finally happened?


Did you think afterwards – Damn that wasn’t worth the wait! I mean after such a long build up and all?

Or was it the opposite, and it blew your mind?

Also was it for religious reasons that you waited?

I waited to have sex until I was married because I feel like sex is the physical expression of the most intimate connection you make with someone. For women – especially (and I’m not being sexist, there’s science to back it up) the hormones released during sex bond them to whomever they’re with. I figured – if I was going to have sex with random people and make that serious chemical connection with everyone I dated…well then I was asking for heartache and confusion and drama in general.

And while my husband and I needed some practice when we first started out – we definitely got it and do the deed to fireworks quite regularly. :)
