I don't know where else to post this, but I have quite the serious question.
My boyfriend and I have been together for a little over six years now. We have already had sex but, I'm starting to think if it is truly a sin to have sex before marriage if he is the only person I've been with and if we are going to marry each other some day. The reason why we aren't married now is because we don't live together and are not financially stable enough to move out and we do not have money to married and don't know if we ever will. What is marriage in God's eyes? Would it involve the modern day wedding or would it just involve two people who are so emotionally dedicated to one another that we have no eyes for anybody else.I am in a fight with my boyfriend at the moment or not really a fight but, a disagreement he says it's not fair that we can't have sex until marriage because, we don't have the money but I say it doesn't matter what is fair in the eyes of God if it is wrong it is wrong and I will not deliberately sin against him but, what is marriage in God's eyes? If we are each others and we have been together so long and are going to be together for years and years to come until we finally can have enough money to marry who is right? Am I wrong and misinterpreting the bible or am I right in what I believe?
