    Is your love life

    I think if did talk about the sex act with a friend who had questions (like a bride about to be married or something) I would talk about it in the abstract, like touching here is a good idea, not like, Hubby touches me here, and I do this to Hubby. That would probably gross out my friends...

    Premarital Sex Affecting Your Marriage?

    I said it made our relationship better and we didn't have any issues because I've stated it 1000 times on these boards in various places that I think an engaged, seriously committed couple that strives so hard to stay apart sexually that it causes you to not spend time alone together and that it...

    How do you celebrate your marriage?

    We have "dates" every Wednesday night and almost every Saturday night. Sometimes Friday nights, too. We make a big thing out of reminding each other about the date throughout the day, getting each other excited and I wear make up or his favorite color, etc. We also make sure we always kiss...

    Deliberate childlessness is moral rebellion

    Quote:Those who reject children want to have the joys of sex and marital companionship without the responsibilities of parenthood. They rely on others to produce and sustain the generations to come. </I>This makes my blood boil!!!!!!!!! Darn straight I want to enjoy marital compainionship and...

    Age Gap Relationships

    In my situation, with our 24 year age difference, I do notice that he is older, but part of that is attractive to me. I like the grey around his edges, it is sexy and handsome. I like the lines around his eyes, it makes him look wise and shows years of smiles and laughter. But do I think...

    Question-Something I have noticed

    Peter, please don't elevate sexual intercourse to the level of Christ's sacrificial death on the cross. That is offensive and blasphemous. The whole point of my post and why my husband and I made the choices we did is because, contrary to the uptight religious busybodies in the conservative...

    Say Something positive about your spouse...

    He is smart. He is the hardest worker I know. He is unselfish and shares all his money and possessions freely with me. He is very handsome. He is a great singer and musician. He is hilarious. I love him more than anything.

    Question-Something I have noticed

    My husband and I had sex before marriage and are (and were at the time) Christians. We had sex for the very reason you stated--all that drama and struggle and anguish that you describe all these Christians couples putting themselves through is foolish to us. God gave us to each other, he gave...

    Age Gap Relationships

    I can answer this question with a fair amount of experiance. I am 27, my husband is 51. We've only been married about 5 1/2 weeks, but we've been in a relationship for almost 3 years. For us, it has never been an issue. We have zero desire to be parents, it is a first marriage for both of...

    Question for older people from a young person

    I'm a young person who grew up in a praise and worship church who left that "rocking" atmosphere for the more reverent and toned down liturgical services because i got sick of seeing my fellow youth and college age church goers show up to "perform" in praise bands and sing and wave their hands...

    Word of advice for brides to be about BC...

    There is nothing dirty about your body and finding out about the health of it. God gave you your body and you as a good steward of it, should take good care of it, all the parts, not just your heart and lungs and brain. Going to get a gynocological exam isn't about sexuality or Christianity...

    And the Bride Wore White

    No one should be told that they can't wear a color or a certain kind of veil because of their sexual past, that is judgemental and wrong. I think that it is sexist to treat female virginity like a commodity. If she choses to wait till marriage, that is a private decision and a thing her...

    Arrrrrrrrrggggggg... hurt my mum!

    I think it is important to pick the few things that you are adament about and that you see as the things for your wedding you don't want to compromise on for your reasons. I had a few that I wouldn't bend on, and then you're right, flowers, type of food, cake frosting, etc, are open for...

    Holidays?

    So now that we're starting to pair off and merge families, how are you guys handling the upcoming holidays and which family you'll celebrate with? I know this can be a serious concern for some couples--I know that when I was a kid I'd think to myself, I only want Christmas my way, every year...

    sexual purity discussion

    To me, with my fiance, sex between us isn't a temptation to sin, because we know in our hearts that it is not a sin for us to have sex. We are committed and in love and it is beautiful for us to express ourselves in this way. It is nuts for us, as grown adults, to avoid natural, God-given...

    Word of advice for brides to be about BC...

    I am not sure what BC you plan on using, Heidi, but be forewarned--most docs in the US anyway, won't prescribe the Pill or other chemical BC without a pelvic exam. I think it is illegal for them not to first confirm officially that you aren't pregnant or otherwise physically incompatable with...

    Word of advice for brides to be about BC...

    YES YES YES! Get your pills early! I am on the pill, started it about 2 1/2 months before my wedding and it has made me pretty sick. My doctor told me it takes a month or 2 to settle down the nausea and find the right time of day to take it. I would have been a total wreck if I had been as sick...
