Is it wrong for a Christian couple to cuddle close to each other ?

[QuestionQuest74]

Is cuddling on each in the couch acceptable in Christian relationships or is that opening the door for Fornication ?

I once heard it said, why start the car if you aren't going to take it out of the driveway.

There is nothing wrong in showing affection. However, you will have to decide what boundaries to set up based on your desire to remain caste until marriage. Chastity until marriage allows two people to spend their first year of married life exploring and discovering with humor and kindness a depth of intimacy that can be a foundation for a lifetime.

It can be opening the door for fornication. It depends on you and who you are with.

Physical cuddling is not intimate like learning how to relate with each other and trust each other. So, I would not be in a hurry to get physical with someone. There is deeper intimacy, in the Lord Jesus.

There are couples who stay platonic while they develop their spiritual relationship.

If it causes you to sin, don't do it. Otherwise, it ain't no big.

Would you recommend it ?
