Hi, sorry for my bad english in advance.

I’m with my girlfriend since 6 month, we know each other since we are in middle school. After that she go in another school and in an other high school in the same town.

We are now both 20 years old, we started to speak together after all these years via facebook and we date some days after, she told me that she had 1 boyfriend during her last year of high school and it lasted 6 month, she lost her virginity with him and i appreciate a lot her honesty.

Now we love each other a lot, I see all my futur with her and for no reason i can break up, that’s the same for her.
At first the fact that she was no more virgin didn’t bother me at all ( I do not care if a girl is a virgin or non virgin ).

But the problem is that 3 month after we started this relationship i really fell in love with her and started thinking about her doing her first time with her ex boyfriend and a lot of more bad things. I was thinking that it’ll go outside my head with time ( i tried to no give matter to it ), but the fact is that the days passed and i was thinking more and more about it, i kept everything for me after 1 month of struggle i’ve decided to tell her what was going on.

I told her that i was thinking about all this and that it was bothered me since 1 month.
She answered me that she regret to have done her first time and to have be with him and that she is very sad about it, she didn’t know why she did this ( I think it’s because like a lot of people now she wanted to lose her virginity as soon as possible,specially at 20 years old and i understand this ).

It was during her last year in high school and he was in her class, she told me this is the thing that she regret the most in her life and if she could go back in times she would only change this, she told me that she was just attached to him and that she saw him only during class, that she slept only around 10 times with him and after 6 month he left her she said that she didn’t think about him one time since she is with me, that he is an and that she have forgot him with no difficulty ( I’m aware that i’m young, that it’s all my problem and that it’s all in my mind, and certainly not her problem ).

She said that she discovered the real love with me and that she love me more than everythings.
After this conversation i didn’t speak again about it with her because i don’t want, some days after, i spoke with her mom about this ( i know her since 10 years ) and she told me that my girlfriend wanted to see me and date me for years and that she was speaking about me everytimes, that i was in her mind everytime and that she never thought being with me one day.

The last thing i regret the most is that i come 6 months to late because she wouldn’t met this guy.( and i know that 100% of people in this world regret things in their life and that the majority would preserve himself/herself for the love of their life ).
I’m aware that there are a lot of worst thing in this world and i do my best everydays to get over it but i can’t and it’s hurting me everytime i think about it, and trust me i think a lot about this. I feel like i’m blocked because i can’t leave her but i can’t go back in time to change that, the only thing i can do is to accept it but i don’t even know if it’s possible
Is there any people who had nearly the same problem ?

How can i work on myself to accept this and stop hurting me with these thoughts ?

Thank to everybody who have read this and who try to help me and sorry again for this bad english.

Whether she's a virgin is the least important aspect of a healthy relationship. Are you happy together? Are you compatible? Put your big boy pants on and focus on what's important.

Pray for healing cos the guy that violated her would still be on her mind, even though shes trying to reasurre you and herself he isnt.

Unfortuanetly these things happen but shes confessed it to you which means she trusts you. Is she a christian? Are you? If you already sleeping together then...the advice is dont. Flee youthful lusts.

I think it is pretty much impossible to find a 20 year old woman who has slept with no men unless she is in the convent. Even then they aren't all virgins either. Next to impossible is to find a 20 year old woman who has slept with one man. This woman if the love is there is one to keep for sure. She has not been out running around in the streets like most women her age. I would be grateful for what I have and enjoy my new life with my lady. Like it has already been said. This is a personal problem to get over,not her problem at all.

If it is too much to deal with, send her my way and I will actually appreciate her and treat her like the princess she is!

So you're sleeping with her now? If you are you're pretty much doing what she did with the other guy. The only problem is you're judging her because she didn't loose her virginity to you. That seems very selfish and hypocritical of you.

I think you got the cart in front of the horse. I did not hear you say either of you are true followers of Jesus Christ, are you?

My advice is to cease all sexual relations with her until you are married. It is not right to continue, though I know it is not an easy decision to make. It's worth making the choice to follow God's direction on this.

Today many who say they are Christians are NOT. They believe, and so does Satan. But believing is easy, Following Christ is all together something different, that is salvation.

JCVD,

Here's the simple answer: This situation is an opportunity for you to show the woman you love the kind of grace and mercy in this matter that God has shown us in Christ for the many other spiritual failures we all do on an individual basis. This may very well be an exercise in which God wants you to love her in the way he love both her and you.

Besides, even if she began as a virgin would not have constituted in ANY WAY a guarantee that you would have lived happily ever after. That is a myth ... Only by practicing love in the way God does through Christ will either of you be able to make your relationship work in the long-term. (I'm giving you practical advice as someone who as been married for over two decades and has had to deal with forgiveness issues in marriage ... )

So, if you both truly think you love each other, then ... truly do so as Jesus would.

Peace,
2PhiloVoid

JCVD,
You identify as a christian....which means you're to be following Christ, not the world.
Young man, the reason you carry on about her is because you hiding behind your own sin.
What you really doing... is that you're living a lie.
Be honest with yourself, don't deflect an try to make it about your girlfriend sexual sin...you got to clean up your own house.
Please repent asap, your faith walk with the Lord is the most important thing!
The Lord say to follow Him, so JCVD, you get back to following Jesus and doing what the Bible say to do.

Well here is a simple answer. Have you ever sinned? If so then your equally as flawed as her. Sin is sin regardless of what sin it is. I mean yes, having sex before marriage is a sin we humans see as super bad. But picking one that sin is not good because we all sin.

No, I didn't sleep with anyone else before her, I wanted to preserve myself for the women of my life and i know it's her.
For those who are asking, yes we are both christian and I understand that she made a mistake ( that's what she said to me ), everybody do mistake in their life. I just think that's regrettable that she didn't preserve herself too for the man of her life.
I don't know what to do, I'm lost and I can't leave her because I know it's her.
Thank you

I think you need to take the moke out of your own eye buddy.
Let the girl go if you can't accept her as she is.
Young women in this day and age are under so much pressure to have sex from peers and television etc.
Show her you are the better man and accept her for who she is today not who she was yesterday.

She's not your wife. Stop the sex with her.
She is unable to see the enormity of your problem, but if the 2 of you marry it will get bigger with every day that goes by and at some point will destroy your marriage. If you care as much about her as you say, walk away from her. Until you recieve some very serious help for the problem you have you will destroy her life.
Give that some serious thought. You will destroy her life unless you are able to get past this part of you.
I don't think you nor one or two members who responded understand what is going on with you. You do not deserve being vilafied for your problem. You need and deserve the best help out there in order to get well.
