I used to want to wait until marriage until I had sex(!)

Me too.

Me too.

Like not even because I grew up in a religion that taught that or my parents told me I had to wait. (Grew up religious but not THAT type of religious)

I thought it would be the best idea. I was plagued with some weird ideas. Then I grew my own ideas, realized how ridiculous it would be (for me!) and had sex.

But I did wait a long time compared to most of my friends.

Edits, realizing comment made is dangerous to post considering how long I've been on Lit... doodeedoooo

I lost mine young. My parents were pretty religious, but it was less of a 'middle finger' and more of a heat of the moment kind of thing.

Alcohol was involved It was not magical.

Yeah, it was all about the religion for me.




Hell, that goes right into another one of these...


I grew up a pretty big Christian, conservative in my politics, pro-life, pro-death penalty, believed in creationism (young earth at that)... the whole nine yards.

Now, I am exactly none of those things.

I feel like it rarely is.

Mine was to a girl that had a boyfriend, but seemed to be getting more from me than she was from him.

My mom worked nights, which turned out to be perfect for sneaking girls in.

And by sneaking, I mean I could've had a parade of naked women walking through there every night and she would've never known.

I grew up in a religious house too, though to call me religious is calling a dog a bird because it was raised in a tree. I first thought I wanted to wait until I was but I think I was more wanting to wait until I with someone I truly cared for. It's difficult for me to not want a connection with someone before wanting to have sex.

I did plenty of sneaking. My parents didn't deserve it.

Yeaaaah.... same, without the exact details.

Although now that I think about it, my parents' religious views did influence my thinking that I should wait till marriage but it wasn't one of those 'to get into Heaven' things.

But definitely nothing like I was then - now.

This is true for many of us.

For me the connection is an absolute

(Not something new so not a reveal lol)

I have never seen Star Wars.

Ha. neither have I.

I did a lot of sneaking, but broke no rules; save for two parties I went to. Both ended up disastrously.

I had no friends or people to talk to until High school. And I looked very strange in high school. I was picked on, but only briefly. My first relationship with with a woman in one of my mother's Classes. She was 9 years older than me.

I was raised as a Christian Reformist. I used to occasionally still go to church. Mostly for free coffee and to talk to Pastor Cecil. Who is without a doubt the smartest person I have ever met. It was him who first encouraged me to find something I believed in. Especially if it was not 'Capital G' God.

I think that's enough sharing.

 

[Nina327]

I am the closest to societies version of normal in the context of my family.

 

[Mav Unlimited]

Ha. neither have I.

And here I thought I was the only one.

I've never really seen, or read, LOTR either.

Nope, not the only one.

I havnt read LOTR either but I have watched largeish chunks of the movies.

Pick up the books. I really liked the films. But you don't have to watch them. Please, though, please. Pick up the books.

I have seen chunks of both movies as well, but never the whole thing.

I have a long list of books pending to be read, recommended by different people. Wish I had more time. I'll add these to the list.

The movies I've seen many times but for some strange reason, I can't get into the books. I have them. I've tried. No go, which is odd because usually I don't have a problem doing that.

^_^ I'm not really upset, but I couldn't resist.

My hair is such a deep red, it almost looks dark brown, until I step out into the sunlight and at one time, went down to the back of my knees. I keep it shorter because it's so thick the weight of it gives me headaches, not to mention that I got fed up with catching it in the car door. Not. Fun.

Mines just now past my elbows... its kinda strange to get it stuck in my armpit and the cardoor at the same time.
