Yes, be safe and don't have sex until you need to, after marriage. It will be worth the wait.

I vote for no sex. My reasoning is that if you love someone you can wait. If the relationship does not work, even though it may hurt you have not given them this gift of intimacy and had it trampled under foot like it was nothing. You could still be friends and part a lot easier if you have not gone so far as this.
I believe (my opinion) that sex and intimacy should be saved for marriage. Saving it to me is giving it the value it deserves. I am not saying that, that will save a marriage but it brings more value to your time a lone after marriage. Before marriage is a time to get to know each other. Aside from the desire to have sex with this wonderful person what do you both have to offer each other?

I dont think the staying celibate will ensure a good relationship. I think sexual chemistry and passion are very hard to judge if you dont engage in the actions then how would u know if you two have that chemistry. Just be safe. I dont just disapprove of celibacy until marriage. I, in fact, think its a bad idea.

The best is what suits BOTH people in the relationship.
Some people like to have sex beforehand to see what they are getting..others like the surprise.
This is something that you and your partner would have to decide.
I would not suggest jumping right into bed with someone though. Take time to really get to know them first.
Also, just getting out of a bad relationship, don't get into another one so quick either...usually doesn't work out too well.

I think by waiting for your wedding day you uphold the true meaning of the white dress for your bride-to-be. I know of many happily married couples who didnt even kiss until they got married. Was it hard, of course. But the marriage is so strong.
I think there is no much pressure on sex that we lose sight of how incredible our marriages can be if we wait.

Were you having sex in the relationship? I believe you should wait until you are married. But in this day and age it's not that common. Too bad people don't wait. It might be a better world and people might take their vows more seriously. There's always masturbation.

I believe that's up to the person. I think it's a great gesture, but it's very hard to find anyone that waits until marriage nowadays.

Dude, Yes I do but more important almighty God does ! Also in this day and age if you value your health and your very life,stay celibate until you get the blood test,marry and are on your honeymoon !!!

celibacy gets easier the longer you do it. I really do think that if you respect someone you will not try to have sex with them until you are married. statistically the moment you start having sex before marriage the greater your chances orf breaking up are.

Absolutely. There is nothing regrettable about waiting until marriage to have sex.
