Some things are worth waiting for?

As for waiting for a man, I really didn't have to wait that long since the first man I was ever in a real relationship with was the man I married at the age of 20. Now I hope since we are all adults this conversation is appropriate here as what I waited for and I found to be very special and worth it was waiting til my wedding night to have sex. Back in the 80's when I was in a relationship with my boyfriend/ future husband and eventually married in 1987 this was not the norm. My parents however instilled this value in me and it became very important. I also loved that my future husband also held this value. It made my wedding night very much worth waiting for. If this post is not appropriate please tell me and I will delete it.
 
@Rah-Rah, it's not inappropriate, just reflects a decision you and your now-husband made. Different strokes for different folks. I not only chose differently for myself, I begged my children to not wait for marriage. DH & I wanted them to finish college and get started on careers before marrying and having children. Which they all did.

Sexuality is a strong human drive. Back when no sex before the wedding night was the norm, more than one bad marriage was entered into based on people's desperate desire to get horizontal with one another. Let's not even discuss the priesthood and how well (?) celibacy worked out there.

In my late twenties I got married and remain very much in love with my husband. Had we met in our teens we wouldn't have been right for each other.

No judgment either way. Glad your strategy worked out for you and mine worked out for me.

Of course it's appropriate.
Photos & video might be inappropriate, however....... 😂
 
I have no problem with either choice…certainly am no judge in such matters,but,one thing I have always wondered at…man and woman settling in for the night..woman spoons ma and says…let’s be platonic tonight,we are getting married tomorrow..I have no idea why but. This scenario cracks me up…soo I have a weird sense of humour:giggle:
