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.

It is best to discuss this matter with your confession father. He knows you best and the man that will be in your future should be introduced to your spiritual father so that they may also get to know each other. The Holy Spirit will guide your spiritual father on how to best advise you both. May the Lord send you a God-fearing and God-loving husband who will respect and accept you.
