So I’ve decided to blog about this topic. Not too many people talk about this issue, but it’s important to me. So I’ve been celibate for about 8 months. Im not afraid to say that I have been because this was important life choice that I made for myself. I think now a days everything seems to be about sex. I thought it would be hard, but it’s actually much easier than I thought it would be. Of course I don’t want to be celibate forever, but just until after marriage. I was in a relationship for 3 years and he ended up breaking up with me. I had in my mind for so long he was the last person I would be with intimately. I was sure we were gonna get married. But it didn’t turn out the way. When we broke up I just felt like he took so much away from me. I think women need to realize that when you have sex with a person, you are giving them a part of you, a special part. And when I found out he had given himself to someone it hurt. I just believe if you wait, then if the relationship doesn’t work out right you won’t feel like they took something from you. It will cause you less pain. I believe a man will respect you more. I think you’ll get more of the relationship. At the end of the day sex should not be an important factor in a relationship. Eventually once you marry then it will, but until then you should definitely wait. I wish I had waited. I definitely didn’t think I would end up having this regret, but after how badly my last relationship ended, I realized it was something I had to do for myself. I think now I have a better feeling of self-worth and empowerment. This is only my personal opinion and based completely on my experience. And I would love to hear other peoples opinion on the topic.
