sex is our natural stress reliever. (We recently cut out alcohol and stuff so we need all the natural highs we can get!) Romantically speaking, i would love to. Practically speaking, we will both be psychos by the wedding day if we abstain!

We agreed to abstain from sexual intercourse for one month prior to the Wedding. But that doesn't mean that we can't be intimate.

Almost impossible to sleep in the same bed with your man and not want to be 'closer'

We are waiting, though we decided to do that a while ago after having had sex for about a yearish. It was hard at first, but then I just got really serious about it. I am glad now that we are waiting, but I am actually nervous about it now.

The month leading up to the wedding was so stressful and we were so tired with all the holidays it wasn't that hard to do ... plus we didn't live together before the wedding so really it wasn't hard to abstain. Thinking back though, with a little effort a lot of stress would have been relieved.

I agree! We are trying to do 2-3 months before the wedding...but I think that will change come B-Party night...

I totally trust him and his friends (all his brothers) but that would be a cruel joke on the man.

Re: So how many of are abstaining from sex till the HM, if u've slept w/ur FH already of course



Personally, in my opinion I don;t think it's ever a good idea to abstain from intamacy. I understand if you never had sex prior and were waiting for moral/religious/etc reasons but since you've had it I think it good to regularly show that emotion and share thqat intimacy. It might be one way to remain close as the stress from the wedding builds up - a way to reconnect at the end of the day.

I don't know, that's just how I feel about it. If you want to abstain until the wedding day and you are both comfortable with it then you should go with that. If only one of you wants to abstain though it may cause more problems than not abstaining. make sure your partner agrees with the reasons.

No way could I do this! I agree, it is a good way to reconnect. I respect anyone else's decisions, but I don't see us abstaining beforehand.

hahaha nah it'll change for sure, what I failed to mention is currently my parents are staying with us till the wedding . ..we're in a 2 bdrm coop, so to have the parents directly next door makes it easier to abstain... normally we wouldnt wait till bedtime, but we cant anymore at the drop of a hat with them home. .

Re: So how many of are abstaining from sex till the HM, if u've slept w/ur FH already of course

We don't live together and I still live with my parents, so it's not like we can spend nights together.

It's very hard to resist being with eachother whenever we can, but I think that our wait will totally be worth it. We'll be reconnecting in a way. Only 4 months to go...
