Is it wrong for me to keep holding on to my virginity?

Hold on to your virginity. It's a real gift from God. You should be very thankful that He's preserved you. People nowadays brag and act as if fornication is the greatest thing and if you don't do it your considered wierd and unusual. \n\nRemember what St. Peter said about these type of people, "They think it's strange that you do not plunge with them into the same flood of dissipation, and they heap abuse on you. But they will have to give an account to Him (God) who is ready to judge the living and the dead." \n(1 Peter 4:4,5)\n\nStaying just the way that you are pleases God greatly. And who would you rather please? God or Man? The Lord will surely reward you for your patience. \n\nKEEP FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT AND ALWAYS PRAY!

There is nothing wrong with wanting to save yourself for the one person you want to spend the rest of your life with.\nIgnore the criticism you have the right to choose what you want with your body. Being a virgin does not make you any less of a person in fact you are the opposite you are a strong person with strong morals and I do have to applaud you for that.

Nope your not strange and your beyond just a regular girl. you value yourself with respect. take pride in holing on to your v-card because once you loose it, it cannot be replace. its better to know that you lost it to someone who will hold it and cherish as long as you did. tere are too many morans out there. iam 19 and I wish i'd waited. not only have I gave away my card, but I am a single parent now. There is no negitive outcome when you keep your v-card. its whe you loose it negitivity falls into place. hang in there be strong, the world evolves around sex now a days, so sex will never vanish. sex will always be available. so dont do anything you'll regret especially if your not ready for it! I'am so proud of you my friend!

Do not lose your virginity with a stranger--you can only lose it once--make sure it is someone whom you love and can reciprocate that love back to you when the time is right.\n\nWhy not wait until marriage?

i was 15 yrs old and i lost it willingly then but like someone else it was taken from me at 13 but still i have recoverd from most of the aspects of it just that i have a problem with giving head still to this day because they made me swallow and now i will give my man oral but it is under my terms and only then, and there is absolutely nothign wrong with still being a virgin in fact if my life hadnt went the way it did i wished i wouldve waited, because to many people in this day in age think that sex all a bunch of fun and games and it wasnt meant to be that way, it was meant for procreation not recreational purposes, be responsible when u are going to have sex because there are just to many disease out there these days because people dont look at sex the way that they should.

I didn't lose my virginity until I was 21. I kept it because I thought it was what God would want me to do. Once I lost it, I almost became a nympho. I felt I had to make up for lost time. All of my friends were out getting laid and partying and now they still think of me as the nerd. You might as well know that one day, sex is going to be a huge part of your life...for the rest of your life so when you feel the time is right, I say go for it. Don't be a slut, but for that person you have feelings for, go for it.

Hey there!\n\nTo answer your question, no, there's absolutely nothing wrong with being a virgin at 27.. infact, contrary to popular belief there's everything right with it. you know, your virginity represents your innocence, and it's the best gift you can give to your spouse when u eventually marry. i know a lot of people have different opinions about this, but the truth is, sex is a sacred thing, and shouldnt just be done with just anyone whenever one feels like it. God created it, and made it in the context of marriage.. not out of it.\n\nso, dear, if you're 27, and not married, and you're a virgin.. rejoice! at that age, probably more than 8 out of 10 people aint virgins anymore...  And you'll see.. when u do get married, your spouse will treasure that gift of innocence you've given them.. and so, treasure you.\n\nGood luck!!

i was 18, we were together 4 years. hun, your body is not ready to have sex yet. and you know what, you can only lose your virginity once. it never comes back, you never have a second chance. if you have sex with this guy, i GUARANTEE you he will break up with you shortly afterwards. then, when you are older you meet the one, you get serious. you cannot lie and say you are a virgin, cause once you have sex he'll be able to tell. a man will respect you so much more if you hold out (in the long run). it's hard to tell whose the one to lose your virginity too the only way to make sure is to make them wait, and wait and wait. it will be worth it. i started dating my fiance at your age and made him wait 4 years. he has even told me if i would have given it up easy he wouldn't have respected me and we wouldn't still be together. people may pick on you but that's normal in school. i guarentee you these people picking on you are gonna end up with a std or pregnant before you get out of high school! another thing to look at... you start at 14.  even if  you have sex with people after 6 months to a year cause you feel so strong about them. now that doesn't work out because guys at this age are all about the sex and having it with as many girls as possible. that is 1 to 2 people a year you have sex with. no big deal to you now but imagine when your 25, 30! hun just do your self a favor, put your head in those books, become a strong independant woman and worry about the sex later. the emotional part of sex lasts longer. it takes minutes to lose your virginity and it may be something you regret the rest of your life.\nI am 21! i'm not old, just seen all my friends make the wrong decision and had to listen to them bitch about it all the time.

Good for you for standing up to your beliefs. You have very strong character and it will serve you well in life. I waited until I was 17. I had a lot of boyfriends and PLENTY of opportunity to lose my virginity but I didn't want to give something so precious to a man I knew I wouldn't be with the rest of my life. You will know when you have met that special someone and only YOU will know when the time is right. It won't feel yucky or dirty and you shouldn't feel like he just wants you for sex. If he is THE ONE he will be respectful and you will feel a connection much deeper than just a physical attraction. Trust your gut. It is different for everyone. Men and Women are so different when it comes to their sexual needs. For men it is like a necessary physical urge. Much like hunger. They feel they need it and there brain tells them to fulfill that need. For women it is something much more emotional. Even girls who express a need for sex are feeling that need on an emotional level rather than physical. They feel a need for love or desire or just to feel wanted or attractive. Men just need the physical release. I wish I had waited until I was married because even though I loved my first and felt I would be with him for the rest of my life we got married but divorced 3 years later and have a daughter together. I'm glad I waited as long as I did but wished I had waited until we were married first.

my question is her virginity a trophy or something you admire and respect? That question should give you the answer and also remember that sex is driven by your desired is selfish, but with love (respect, responsibility, honesty and integrity) from both parties with true commitment is unselfish and a bond that will strengthen your relationship to each other. All I can say is don't use her for your gain, ok!

It is completely up to you because if you think  you are mature enoughto take responsibility to use poretection and be safe then go for it. Be careful the person you chose to give your virginity to because it is sacred and it can never be given away again. If you want to let your parents opinions be a factor in your decision then its up to you.

Yeah, you'll most likely regret it.  You should lose your virginity to someone you love.  If you don't have a loved one, then wait untill the time is right.  Don't let your friends control your life.  If you do, you're screwed.

stay strong.   If he really loves you and just doesn't want another notch on his belt, he will honor your desire to keep your virginity until marriage.   What you can do to help is go out with other couples; do really active things together and change the subject.  You did not say how old you were nor how old he is.   But your desire to save your virginity until you are with the man you marry is really mature.   Is he ready for a life time committment for you?  If he is, get married and have sex forty times a day (ha, ha)  If he is not, then his pressing you for sex all the time shows he is more into getting something for himself than into caring what you are about. Kinda selfish, no?

your not a loser for being a virgin.  Machoism is over rated and normally held in high regards by idiots, morons, and ignorate people who just accept machoism as the one truth in life.  At most no sex can cause sexual frustration or even over whelming curiousity about how sex feels like.  I lost my virginity to a prositute not because I wanted to be a man.  But because my curiousity was driving me nuts.  I am also bit of a odd ball so I suggest to wait for a girl you like before losiing it.  It would probly feel better then my experience.  My experience only lead to my thinking whether meaning ful sex feels better then hollow sex.  If you dont want to be a virgin forever start dating.  If your having trouble with that read books on the subject.  Hopefully you will have better luck then me.  Well good luck
