i have kissed a boy. his name is terek and he is 16 months old (just thought id share)

That is such a good decision if you feel that it is what God has called you to do. Which I am sure it is because human nature goes against everything that you said. haha. I think everyone has their convictions about this issue and I'm so happy you found yours.

Why'd you choose not to kiss anyone until marriage?

That's not biblically advised and it doesn't seem practical. You will probably just frustrate your future partner - of course, they would probably wait and respect your decision, but that does not mean they would be entirely happy with it.

I guess if you're really sure that's what God's calling you to do, that's fine, but I do not understand it, and I beg you to reconsider.

It's very easy to kiss without going further. Maybe you will be tempted to go further, but it's not hard to ignore that temptation - I speak from personal experience.

Kissing is a real pleasure as long as it's with someone you truly love and there's absolutely no reason not to do it, as it's not a sin and will not inevitably result in sin.

Oh dear children. It matters not who it is, that you will one day kiss. Much rather should it matter that you wait, for the one GOD provides. He has someone for both of you, and all that is required of you is trust.

I speak, because I didn't wait. I now have the brokenness of knowing I didn't wait for who God would provide, and now, I won't have the joy of my first kiss being the woman who I marry. I entered into sin, and now, I have to tell my wife when I get married (or before), all that I did, all that I took from my wife, instead of saving it for her.

Please, dear children, wait on God. Wait not in pride, but wait in humility, and trust in the Lord, for He will deliver. Just wait. And let the Lord work.

Amen Brother,I wish I had never kissed a girl and waited,it's caused a lot of heartbreak and I have taken so much from my future wife I would give anything to have back.

 

[pressingon17]

Wait, have patience for God's timing,It's so much better than ours.

God Bless your desision.

The one danger, especially for teens, is that they could get emotionally tied to someone, who they will not marry, and it will hurt when that relationship ends, leaving them marred for their actual future spouse. If one does kiss a another young teen, then it'll start to cause emotional attachment that is really painful when the relationship ends.

And, yes, you're right, kissing is a real pleasure if it's with someone you truly love. Unfortunately, today's world is built more around emotions, so its extremely rare for teens to find their actual true love when they're still in their teens.

A kiss is most certainly not the cause of a strong emotional attachment. If you'd form such an attachment to someone simply because you've kissed them, I'd recommend getting a psychologist, because you'd have to have borderline personality disorder.

I live a very long distance from my current boyfriend of about 8 months, so we didn't kiss until several months after we had already admitted love for each other. I assure you that if I were to break up with him, the kisses that we have shared would be the last of my regrets - after all, it's perfectly normal and natural to kiss someone that you have such a close relationship with, and frankly, I think my future spouse, if not my current boyfriend, would be more hurt that I'd loved someone else before him than that I'd kissed previously

If the cause of the worry here were the problem of having a close emotional attachment to anyone who wasn't going to become your spouse, then you'd say "I'm not going to have any significant romantic relationships until I get married as not to be marred for my spouse". But of course, if you're not going to have any close relationships until you married, how are you going to decide who to get married to? Do we revert to arranged marriage?

If the point of waiting to kiss lies in that teen relationships tend not to work out, then why until marriage, rather than until adulthood?

My advice would simply be not to kiss anyone unless you have a very close relationship with them to the extent that you plan to marry them, not until you're actually married to them. For most, it'd mean several months of going out, but if you were very close friends with feelings for each other a long time beforehand, it might only take a couple of months, or even just a few weeks, to get to that stage.

i belive that god intended phisical relations like that to bve saved for marriage, and if your not going to kiss anyone but your husband when you are married, why ever kiss someone other than your husband?

Oh really? Where in the bible does God say that you should not kiss someone until marriage?

if your not going to kiss anyone but your husband when you are married, why ever kiss someone other than your husband?

Because it's a wonderful experience and there's absolutely no reason not to.

I could replace "kiss" in your argument with dozens of other romantic interactions that are perfectly safe and moral: "If you're not going to date anyone but your husband when you are married, why ever date someone other than your husband?" It's quite simple - because you never really know who you're going to marry until you're married to them unless you resort to the system of arranged marriage.

There are some steps that God has thankfully allowed us to take in a romantic relationship outside of marriage that I would certainly advise taking.

Justifying the decision not to kiss before marriage by calling it God's will is simply not biblical. Do not take what God has declared good and call it evil.

 

[abbiestract]

nowhere in the bible does it say that you should kiss before marriage. women would put veils over their heads so that there husband-to-be couldent see there face...

i dont mean not ever kiss untill in married, just not to...make out. little kisses are ok.

Just be careful,even little kisses can lead to more.I learned the hard way.I don't ever recondmend it.I'm so thankful for Jesus and forgiveness.And as many second chances as I need.

 

[Tallerthanatree]

1. Much too late.
2. Not biblically mandated. If you feel kissing might lead to other things, follow your conscience. But realize that not everyone deals with that.
3. Quite frankly, I dont get it.

 

[meowmix]

I Dont have major feeling for Anybody yet.. But When I do, I seem To Move away from them.. AHAHA.

 

[~Fufu~]
