A woman in a year-and-a-half relationship says she'd turn down a guilt-free pass to sleep with anyone else because she follows Jesus and wants to wait for marriage. She and her partner both chose celibacy before dating, and she describes past hookups as leaving her feeling empty and alone.
This is a breath of fresh air. Listen in.
How long have you been together?
A year and a half.
If your man gave you a guilt-free pass to sleep with anybody in the world, would you take it?
No.
Why not?
Because I follow Jesus and the only one that I want to sleep with is my husband. So we're saving ourselves for marriage. And I don't, I don't think any pass is worth following Jesus and what he preaches.
Okay, so y'all have been together for 2 years without sex? Are you both virgins or?
Absolutely not. Now we both got a past behind us, but Jesus puts all that behind us and he gives us new What
made you guys choose to go celibate in your relationship?
I mean, it was a choice that we had both made before we were even in relationship with one another. That's a, that's a huge reason why we even chose to pursue this relationship, is because we was already chasing after Christ in our individual lives.
Personally, like, I've had the pointless, meaningless hookups before, and they just left me empty. I just felt broken and empty after. It was just like, what am I doing this for? It's just leaving me alone. Even when I'm with somebody, I'm alone.
