Should I marry the girl I lost my virginity to? Posted: 05-17-07 10:42am
is it wrong to marry the only person ive
had sex with? i lost my virginity in my
late 20s and have continued to date this
person. i love her but i feel like a
complete loser at times because i didnt
have a lot of sex in my life, whereas it
seems that a lot of people outside my
group of friends has had a lot more sex.
any thoughts would be appreciated. its
very depressing sometimes.

If you love that person then i dont see
how it is wrong to stay with that person,
having sex with alot of people isnt that
cool, i mean maybe in life u shud have fun
before you settle down. But i mean i was
in a 4year relationship with my first bf
when i was 16 he was my first, and then i
had 1nite thing which i regret and
now am with my new bf been with him for
1year. I dont see how just because you
havent slept around u say ur a loser. I
think that if u are unhappy in ur
relationship then maybe you should talk to
ur partner about it. I think that deep
down you must have wanted to wait for the
right person.
Instead of jus been used for a one
nightstand, which really they aint that
good.

I think it's wrong to marry this girl if
you're still having misgivings about doing
so because it would make you uncool for
not having many sexual experiences. As
long as you see merits within promiscuous
behaviours, you should explore and resolve
them. This does not mean acting out on
them (though you can) but at least
thinking about it more. About what you
value. About what the input of others and
society's themes mean to you. Are they
right? Are you right?
Marriage is supposed to be a serious
commitment, you need to be content and
resolved about it or it will be
troublesome to sustain it, and it would do
a disservice to whoever you'd marry. After
all, consider if your girlfriend had
similar misgivings. She'd do you a
disservice to marry you if she would be
wondering sometimes "perhaps I should have
slept with a dozen men before marrying
this guy".
There is also the question of exclusivity
within marriage as some couples have more
open policies regarding other persons.
One valuable thing is really just to talk
about this. Relationships should be open,
you should be able to discuss your
feelings.

Simple! if you love her and if both of you
guys are ready physically, mentally,
financially, etc., then go one. The
problem i think is the fact that you
think you should have multiple sexual
relations first before tying the not which
should not be the case. You compare
yourself with your friends that you want
to become them. You think that it's the
norm to have multiple partners before
settling into marriage which is untrue.
These people did not find true love unlike
you do. Imagine these people jumping from
one relationship into another, searching
for that "someone". And they fail. You on
the other hand has found "her". Don't pass
up this opportunity.

Ok, I'm older so my views are a bit old
fashioned when it comes to this area but I
think you should be proud of yourself that
you haven't been running around banging
everything that moves.
You found love and that's where you are
committed. I believe these days it takes
more of a man to stick to one partner than
it does to behave like every other guy.
But don't marry her JUST BECAUSE she is
the one that you lost your virginity to.
Marry her because you love her and want to
be with her exclusively the rest of your
lives.
Most Sincererly,

ok so you say that its depressing. Is it
because you didnt take advantage of your
youth and sleep with everyone you could or
are you wondering what else is out there?
Cause the grass isn't always greener on
the other side. Are you trying to compete
against your freinds? I mean you love
this girl right? Why should it matter
that you lost your viginity to her? I
mean you found the one so whats the
depression about?

i don't understand why people feel bad
about not having sexual experiences with
multiple people?
If you want to have sex with different
women then you don't love her so don't
marry her.
