I agree with Hope's dream of waiting until the wedding
night. I myself have religious convictions, although lately
I have fallen short of those requirements.
The idea of saving yourself until the wedding is a beautiful
thing, but I also think about how many problems you will
avoid by doing so. Diseases that you don't know your partner
may have, unwanted pregnancy, etc.
I am dealing with a partner that in the past has cheated
on me and now the thought of a STD scares the hell out of
me. What pain I could have saved myself.
On a totally different note, Hope can suggest what she
thinks you should do. I mean, the website is for unprofessional
advice. But the way Hope put her sentence together was kinda
harsh.
Not Everyone Is a Christian
What makes Hope think everyone she writes to is a Christian,
with Christians beliefs? To receive God's forgiveness should
be left to a whole other web site with the topic being "
BEING A CHRISTIAN" .
As I said before I have religious beliefs that are similar
to Hope's and I absolutely believe in what she says but
not everyone feels that way and we can't assume that they
do. I think most of the people with questions to you are
looking for a regular relationship advice not a Bible study.
