NO SEX!

ok so yeah this is lame and its late but i'm bored. so this is a journal response thingy that i had to write for Health and i wrote in on sex b4 marriage... and how you shouldnt do it... bot for the religeous reasons really.. just cause its more practical... yeah ok so its lame but deal with it.

During our health unit, when the question of “how many people plan on moving in with their boyfriend or fiancé, before marrying them?” was asked, and I was surprised at how many people put up their hand. I did expect the majority of the class to raise their hand, however there were only a couple of people (me included) who raised their hand to the question of “who does not plan on moving in with their boyfriend or fiancé before marrying them?” I do not believe that moving in with somebody that you are in a relationship with, before marriage is a good thing. It will most likely lead to having sex, because when you are in the moment and all the facilities that are needed are right at hand it is going to be extremely hard to resist. I do not believe in sex before marriage, and not because I am a Christian and in my religion sex before marriage is not right. I don’t believe in sex before marriage because of the huge responsibilities and complications that come along with it. Sex shouldn’t be just another thing to do in a relationship to have fun. It is probably a great and enjoyable way to feel closer to your partner and have fun, and things like that, but you can become closer to your partner and have fun by doing other things. Going for walks, watching movies together, going to fun places, or maybe just sitting down and talking are awesome ways to have fun and feel closer without involving sex. Hugging, kissing, just sitting with each other or even making out are ok, as long as you don’t go too far and know when to stop. All it takes is self control, and if perhaps you are a person without very much self control, put yourself in the position where you wouldn’t be able to go too far with your actions even if you wanted to. Stay in a well lit area, or stay at home with your parents in the house, go to a public place where lots of people are around.
With sex sometimes come very big responsibilities that usually only married couples can handle to the best of their ability. Sex may not seem like so much fun anymore when you become pregnant and have to raise a child as a single parent, because rarely do couples who get pregnant outside of marriage stay together. This leaves a child to grow up in a broken family, traveling from one parents house to the next every week, or maybe the child will just live with the mother, or father, and speaking from experience, it is not the best life for a child to grow up with only one parent, when it could all be avoided if sex was just put off until after marriage. After marriage you know that if you get pregnant unexpectedly, that you are more prepared to have a baby and raise it properly than if you were not married, because usually not being married means that you aren’t ready just yet to settle down and raise a family.
Also having sex outside of marriage brings the risk of getting an STD or STI. Your partners might not be completely faithful, or they may have a STD without knowing it from a previous relationship. Whereas when married, your partner is faithful (or is suppose to be) and if you have both not been sexually active outside of marriage you don’t have to worry about STDs and STIs because neither of you have been exposed to them.
I do realize that sex is probably an exciting and fun thing, and that waiting until marriage before having sex is probably hard; imagine the rewards of doing so however. Your virginity is something that cannot be bought back or replaced, mended or found again. Once it’s gone, it’s gone for good. It’s a big thing, every time you have sex with somebody it’s like giving up a part of yourself to them. If you wait until marriage you have the ability to give your spouse one of the rarest presents there are. You can give them your whole self, and not half, or a quarter or what’s left after sleeping with 20 guys during your high school and university years. It’s telling them that you waited your whole life just for them and that you want to basically give your whole self to them, and what a better thing to give to the person that you love and wish to spend the rest of your life with.
