Struggling..

[jesus_freak_for_life]

I'm struggling big time with lust and this guy that I really like. I took the advice of a lot of people and swollowed up my emotions and thought with my head. I sent him an email that said pretty much, either we're more than friends, or we're not going to do that kinda stuff.. and if we do that kinda stuff.. there will be a line. I'm really forcing myself to do what God wants right now. I know it's good and all, but I'm hurting regardless, because I still really like this guy, and I still really wanna be with him. So please, please, please keep me in your prayers. As bad as this guy sounds, he really is a good guy, and you're just going to have to trust me on that one. Like I said, I'd like to be with him, so pray that it happens, and if it does, that we both have self control and that things go well. Anyway, thanks..

Are you looking for just prayer or input?

Praying for you Jesus Freak! Someone once told me to look at it in terms of cheating on my husband. If I am not married and I do something outside of a marriage, than I am cheating on my future husband. Or something along those lines. It bears keeping in mind. Hormones and feelings have a way of taking off sometimes. A good way to handle it, I think, is to set boundaries before a situation arises where you might not be thinking straight and stick to those boundaries. Do not put yourself into a situation where those boundaries get pushed either. I know it is hard (believe me!) but in the end I think you will find it will be very will rewarded. From a Christian perspective, I have read alot from people who say they wished they would have waited to have sex with the person they married. I haven't read to much about those who wish they would have had more sex with others before they married.

To what wvm said, you are somebodies future wife & he is someone's future husband.

What you are thinking of doing - do you want someone doing that with your future husband?

If you want more input/advise to what you posted let me know. I addressed your posts in the bleh.. I like a boy thread.

Just be careful and draw that line without compromise. I did when I was this age but it was a dangerous line....Only you really know if it will be crossed. Take care.
