Just wait it out, so when you guys do finally have that moment, you guys will go more hard. Also, it'll feel a lot better.

Just wait a little longer then, it's not like it's gonna last forever, like a week or so at most.

You're bound to earn your red wings one day. Why not on your wedding day?! That's like two birds with one stone haha.

Once again, red wings are earned by eating a girl out when she's on the rag, not by having sex with her. this generation shames me to know that they don't know proper terminology

67, can be either or, depends on the inflection and which generation. I've heard people in their 40s talk about it as intercourse and it meaning something more along the lines of the way stewardess earn their wings for flying. Not everything has to be literal or the same to everyone. Calm down.

67, btw oral sex IS sex, you're thinking "intercourse". So many people don't understand that terminology.

When the river runs red, take the dirt track instead!

If you'd been having sex, she would have been on birth control, and you could've avoided that. That's what you get for waiting ;)

You still get your period while on borthcontrol, it is just lighter.

Not me or anyone in my family.

Not always. If you go on Depo it'll stop your period completely after a few months.

That's true, I'm on Depo shots and haven't had a period for at least 2-3 years

lol wow that is so retarded, do u know how bad that is for you? fyl

You can plan when you will take the 'off' pills and get your period.

Waiting is actually a really wise thing to do. It makes it more special and validates that your love is more than just physical. I'm not gunna judge anyone who doesn't but I respect those who do.

"It makes it more special and validates that your love is more than just physical." So in what way does not waiting make it just physical? Because most people have sex before marriage (and have for decades, no matter what they try to tell you), and most unmarried couples in serious relationships do it because they love and care for each other. You don't typically stay with someone for years because they have a nice ass. One night stands are cheaper.

Umm depo is completely safe for women , our uteruses do not collect monthly blood to discard which is why we have no period and it's fantastic

Depo is safe or they wouldn't give it, I'm on it for a different reason than BC but it's also great that it is BC. Btw, there's 2 kinds, depo lupron, and depo provera, the first one is a monthly shot (I don't think that one is used as BC but I could be wrong) and the second one you get every 3 months (and obviously is used as BC)

To Joa, I personally think that if you love someone that much than you should be willing to wait for marriage. Its a promise saying, "I'm satisfied with just being with you." Again that's just me personally, I'm not saying anyone has to.

I said what what in the butt I said what what in the butt. Get ya some red wings. Hockey.... Yeah that's it... Hockey

I'm absolutely against abstinence 'till marriage, but that's a personal choice so I cannot criticize you on that, but why, oh why, didn't she take the pill beforehand? Then she could have chosen when her period would start. And if she didn't take contraception at all because you two immediately wanted kids, then she should have known when her period was going to be there and thought about that when you two picked the date for the wedding. I'm sorry for the sexless wedding night, OP, but you two did deserve this a little bit.

If they remained abstinent until marriage I would imagine they are religious. In the catholic faith you are not supposed to use birth control.

The pill can really mess with your body, so some women simply can't be on it. Put a little thought into it before you start imposing your views on some person about stuff that's not your choice!

52- You dont have to be religious to choose abstinence. Not all religious people are catholic. When is the last time you heard a catholic person REALLY say "Yeah, I can't use birth control due to my religion"?

1) My mother is a very religious person and she uses the pill. There are also enough people who wait untill marriage because it sounds romantic. 2) You only get the pill when you visit a doctor. He examines you by taking your blood pressure and asking questions and he will say it if a woman can't be on it. If you take the pill and notice you can't stand it, you can always stop and take the NuvaRing, which has less hormons and also allows you to skip one period. 3) FML has this comment section so we can imposing our views on some person's FML.

When i fell in love for the first time,we wanted to wait till we got married.3years of relationship later&all the wedding plans done i found out she cheated on me. Regrets none. It choice. :)

Some birth controls can make you gain weight, so I doubt she would want to risk any weight gain before her big day. And what's wrong with waiting for marriage? I think it's sweet.

When is the last time you heard a catholic person REALLY say "Yeah, I can't use birth control due to my religion"? When is the last time you heard a Catholic person really say "Yeah, I can't have sex before marriage due to my religion"? I'm sure there's a decent amount of overlap between the small number of Catholics who would say either of those things, and anyway, it's not just Catholics. Most conservative Christians that are adamant about abstinence are at best iffy on birth control. I'm not sure what other religions think about it. As "sweet" as waiting may SOUND, I personally agree that it's not really a great idea. If that's your decision, more power to you, but the way I see it, sex is a very important part of a marriage and it IS possible to not be sexually compatible with someone (either as serious as being literally physically not compatible, which is relatively uncommon but would make having a good sex life all but impossible, to as seemingly simple as just having different sex drives, which still makes matters pretty complicated if one always wants it and the other never does). If you marry someone and it turns out the two of you can't both be completely happy with your sex life, well...sucks to be you. There are people who don't see sex as important, but to that I say, then why the big to-do about waiting? If it's important enough to wait for that "one special person" then it's important enough to make or break things. Of course it isn't EVERYTHING, but it IS the only thing that you can only get from that person (assuming monogamy, which...I would be quite surprised if someone expected abstinence but then not monogamy). I think it's worth finding that out beforehand.
