Yes, you should wait until marriage.So I stumbled on an article online about the statistics on young Christians waiting till marriage I was hoping to find someone that has upheld gods word and well let’s just say my hope is pretty much gone.

Second, are you open to remain celibate for God?
Jesus teaches and Paul backs up the idea that remaining single for Christ, is the preferred option. Matthew 19:12," For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it."
1 Corinthians 7:7-9, "
For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they abide even as I.
9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn."
This is an option. It is not a commandment, nevertheless, Jesus and Paul says that this is the preferred option.
Something worth praying about being open to doing.
In peace
