Did you find it difficult waiting for physical intimacy before you got married to your spouse? Or was the time valuable in growing closer together naturally?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Umm both. . .
I will say this, anyone who doesn't find it difficult to wait for sex with their SO until marriage, probably shouldn't get married. It's ment to be difficult, and if it's not it means there is a lack of physical attraction. Physical attraction is important to a marriage.
That having been said there is advantage to getting to know one another on a personal level without the complications and risk of sex on the relationship.
But as far as waiting, while it's good, it is suppose to be difficult, you really need to worry when it's not difficult.
