That question
The
classic question that most young people will ask themselves at some
point is "Why save sex for marriage"? It's an easy question to ask,
but a difficult one to answer.
When you're in a relationship, it's an exciting time. You discover many new feelings and desires that you may not have experienced before. As time goes on and you grow closer to your girlfriend or boyfriend, your sexual desires will grow stronger. Then that question may arise, "Why not express our love by having sex?"
There might be many people around you giving you their opinion. Many will tell you that it's fine as long as you love each other, while others will say that a sexual relationship outside of marriage is wrong.
Some people know deep in their heart that sex is special and is meant to be saved for marriage, but they're not sure why or if that's even possible. It can be pretty confusing.
But it is worth taking the time to think about this decision properly, because sex is a big deal. It will change your life forever in many different ways. So it's important to understand what it means for yourself and what it means in your relationship.
This leads to a deeper question..what is the real meaning and purpose of sex in our lives? Does it just mean whatever we want it to mean, or does it have an objective meaning of its own?
