Dear Doctor Lover,

Can I have sex before marriage?

Sincerely, Yes

Dear Yes,

Interesting question, so I'll answer it. The answer is really all up to you and your morals. If you believe that the time is right and you are ready, then go right ahead. However, my first advice is to get to know the person first. If you feel that you know the person you want to have sex with well and you are ready and believe that it's a good relationship, then do what you need to do.

Nonetheless, if you are having sex just because you are physically attracted to that person, you may want to reconsider. First get to know them spiritually and mentally and then if you are still attracted, then you can make your choice from there.

I personally did not wait until marriage to have sex, but my wife did. After meeting her, I of course had to wait also and had to become abstinent while in the relationship with her. It does take lots of self control and it takes an understanding that you are doing something special and in order to make your wedding day even more spectacular then what it already will be, sharing that moment will make it a day in your life to remember.

Waiting until marriage has many more benefits than not waiting.
