It depends on how much later.\n\nThe couple should be married in the Church before enjoying conjugal bliss (having sex).\n\nWith love in Christ.

ya i was, i wouldn't let him until i was ready, you have to be comfortable and trust him before anything happens, and make sure he understands that kissing is the extent of what you want to do.

No, as the dictionary says.  But why draw a line?  Fidelity is a moral issue. As I recall some part of one's marriage vow says something about forsaking all others.  Perhaps the following will provide relief from one's concscience. \n\nForsake (v) To renounce; to reject; to refuse. \n\nadultery (n.) Voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and a partner other than the lawful spouse.

If it's the first kiss for both of you it should be on the forehead or cheek. I remember my first kiss with a very handsome young man who kissed me on the forehead. He was tall compared to me. We were at a birthday party; and when a slow dance was played he held me with his hands locked behind my back at the waist. My hands were locked behind his neck. Our bodies did not touch,short of my head on his chest. When the music stopped he didn't, so I looked up at him,only to find his eyes still closed and a blissful look on his face. His face was literally glowing when he opened his eyes. I was so fascinated by how he looked when his eyes opened, that I just stood there looking back at him.Finally he asked had the music stopped and told him it had. He leaned down and kissed me on the forehead then breathed the word "Heaven." I can't say if it was his first kiss but it was mine. I don't know if he knew it was my first kiss either. But those kisses were ours while we saw each other for about the first two months. Later he'd kiss me on the cheek; and finally on the lips.  I don't believe either of us felt pressured at anytime. He always seemed so content and happy. I will always wonder what marriage to him would have been like, tho I think it would have been "Heaven" like he said; I will never know because a drunk driver took his life. I am only left with his memory, but the memory was "Heaven."

Hi. I am a Christian woman. I am married now, but did have sex before marriage. I was not a Christian at that time, but did struggle with temptations as a Christian before marriage. I give all glory and credit to Jesus for giving my husband and I the strength to resist temptation before marriage. Our first kiss as a couple was at the altar.\nI think that a vast majority of people who claim Christianity as their religion either do not understand their claim well enough for it to be true and sincere in them or they are too caught up in the temptations of life and not caught up in the focus and strength of Christianity - namely Jesus Christ and His accomplishments in life, death, and the resurrection.\n\nIt is disturbing the number of people who claim allegiance to Christ and then fail to follow Him in His commands. None of us is perfect. Biblically we are all sinners in need of our Savior, Christ, and this issue is yet further proof that becoming a Christian isn't an instant fix of flaws. Christianity is meant to be a process of growing in relationship with the Savior who saved us once from eternal damnation in hell and is saving us daily from our own weakness toward sin which brings death into our lives (although some sins bring death of emotional, relational, social, spiritual, etc. not just the regular physical death you think of.) Those people who are truly "saved" and living daily in a relationship with Jesus Christ through His presence in our lives will WANT to or be motivated to "do the right thing" because we want to please Him. Those who claim Christianity as only a Sunday service or social lifestyle simply will not find the strength or reason, when it comes down to temptation, to do the right thing, or they do it for the wrong reason only to give in later. The reason is that they have not really "meet" Jesus Christ and confronted their need for salvation in a sincere way or they have, but they choose the religious box over the relationship that changes a life.\n\nI hope that helps a little. I applaud you in your stand for No Sex Before Marriage. That is an honorable decision that is too foreign in today's society.

Yes. If you want to elope, you can come back and renew your vows in a church in front of people if you want to do so.

Hugging is perfectly fine, just as long as you don't take it any further. Kissing is also fine, as long as it doesn't lead to anything else. As you are a Christian, you should always wait until you get married before going 'all the way'.

one word: pray. If you pray and believe then she will come back to you. Or you can ask her for a second chance. Remind her of your wedding vows. Til death do you part. For better or worse.

My husband and I renewed our vows at our church, as we were originally married at the court house 5 yrs before and we too could not dance. Unfortunately that seems to be the norm for that.  All we could do was fellowship basically. You can always dance when you get home :-) Congrats on your upcoming nuptials

why stop with the vows? also do these things\n\n1. instead of a pastor have a referee "officiate"\n2. instead of rice throw "dust in the wind"\n3. instead of doves release "trial balloons"\n4. instead of a reception have "something to go"\n\nand finally\n\n5. instead of a honeymoon take "separate vacations"

All I can do is tell you about my first time. I was totally in love, but the guy wasn't. It was nuthin' nice. In fact it was, on the whole, a totally awful experience. When I realized he didn't really care about me, I was devastated. I had thrown away the most precious gift I had to give a man on a jerk who just wanted to say he'd had a virgin. Don't be in a rush, sweetheart. I'm not saying you have to wait for marriage, just make the first time with someone really special. Make GOOD memories! I love you.

My wife and I had sex before we stood in front of family and friends and professed/confessed our love but not before we committed to each other before God. That was the week of St Patrick's day in 1987! I don't know if that makes any sense to you or if it helped but there it is.

I had a friend tell me after I had got engaged "you'll likely never see another woman naked again - and you'll definately never have the feeling of a first kiss again" and it relly didnt bother me. Think that through before commiting and if it scares you then you're not ready.
