My Goodies, Not My Goodies: Reasons You Should NOT Give Up the Cookie
Your Religious or Core Beliefs
If you feel strongly that premarital sex is a sin, then by all means, stick to your guns and wait until you’ve meet the man who is willing to make a commitment to you. If he respects your wishes and your beliefs, then he will make sure you’re both ready and won’t pressure or guilt you into having sex before you’re ready to. Sure, sex can be considered an important part of a relationship, but so are shared values. By abstaining from sex, you can focus on growing emotionally and spiritually with your partner and your union will be stronger for it.
