• I was very sexually active before marriage. I did not have intercourse, but I had oral sex. I regret it and I have not repeated it. I have been thinking a lot lately about if this will affect my future relationship with someone I would want to marry. Would I have to reveal everything I have done to my future spouse before we get married? I am afraid I will not be able to get married because of what I have done, especially because I regret it and I am ashamed of it.
• If a person does sexual acts before marriage, but still remains a virgin, does the other spouse still need to know about those sexual acts the person had committed even though that person is still virgin?
• Is there any verse in the Holy Bible that addresses having sex before marrying?
• I'm struggling with making a decision. My boyfriend and I have been dating for about seven months. It started off really well as we both are, with the help of God, good Christians. We have to secretly meet because my parents wouldn't accept him at the moment due to his lack of education. My parents are mistaken in the way they think because the only reason he doesn't attend college is because his dad is ill and so he works to provide for his many siblings. At first, we thought it would be easy, but now we are always tempted; we don't have sex, but we are crossing the lines. I don't want to stray from God. I need advice of what to do, I don't think I can end it because I do love my boyfriend and I don't want to hurt him either, but I need a way to fight these temptations.
