People Reveal What it’s Really Like to “Wait” Until Marriage

Source: Whisper

I grew up in a pretty religious family and was taught in no uncertain terms that it was an absolute moral necessity to save the dirty deed for marriage, and a mortal sin not to.

Cut to…several years later and I’ve never been married but have done the naked times. So far this shirking of my moral duty hasn’t resulted in anything terrible, but we’ll wait and see, I guess.

I’ll never know what it would have been like had I stayed on that prescribed path, but the people behind these confessions do.

20. Guy stuff

Hey man, it’s all good.

19. The pain

The fact that’s often very painful at first for women seems suspiciously absent from abstinence education.

Worth noting that by current standards 21 is quite young to tie the knot.

Can you imagine how nervous you’d both be?

That’s quite a while to wait.

1. It has begun

When you’re not super experienced, you don’t know what to worry about.

Yanno, to each their own. My only two cents would be that it’s YOUR decision to make. No one else gets to dictate it for you.

What do you think about this?
