This is a very vulnerable post, so please pardon the length and content. So, I’m a 24-year-old virgin, and I have been in only one relationship so far. Not because I’m not pretty or don’t get approached, but because I have standards that need to be met. I believe I am a spec too, if that makes sense. I have kept my virginity all this while because I want to have my first sex in marriage and not accumulate body counts. Also because I believe God hates fornication, and for emotional clarity, because I feel having sex with different people in the name of relationships ends up leaving you with regrets and health jeopardy. But now, I feel this sudden urge to be touched. It’s like my body yearns for intimacy. I don’t even know the basis for this feeling, to be honest. No, I don’t watch porn•graphy or ma$turbate. The feeling just overwhelms me at times, and I desire to be cuddled, but I’m currently single. It has been a long time coming, and I feel like I might have sex this year. But I also fear that I might regret it. What if I end up not enjoying it? What if the guy I eventually choose acts up after we become intimate? What if, after having sex, I finally meet “my husband” and regret not waiting a little longer? I’m so confused, and my final decision will depend on the majority of a particular response I get after making this post. Thank you so much. I’ll be reading your comments.
