In one sense I want to laugh at you for thinking that the majority of people would actually care, and for your extremely dated religious views.
And on the other hand I want to punch you for rejecting these views just because other people don't follow them. Shame on you.
Nothing's really changed, except I just looked around, and I couldn't name a single person who believed with what I did. It just struck me as really pointless to carry on with it if I was the only one interested. Believing something all on your own isn't much fun :no:
perfect***day
Truth be told, I really don't feel any different. I don't feel like a fraud, I don't feel guilty.
Yeah but you're not the only one. There are millions of people worldwide still firmly believing in what you used to (including me) if you just looked.
If your having doubts be it because its your own view.
I could never imagine thinking like others for the sake of it!
Do what you want, it doesnt really matter at the end of the day, no one really cares in the outside world if your having sex or not, dont be fooled into anything. Do whatever floats your boat
Is it a religious thing? I think people should respect your choice but then if you were telling the truth (Ie you had had sex) people would expect you to be able to explain why you changed your mind.
I didn't have sex until i was almost 26 and then it was with someone I knew I loved and who cared about me. It wasn't because of religion but because I wanted to know I was ready. Personally I don't believe in marriage (For me) or god and so sex and marriage have never been an issue.
Perhaps people object to the 'no sex before marriage brigade' because they do on the whole tend to look down on anyone who does have sex out of wedlock!!??
I don't doubt that there are people out there who still believe this, but, from my perspective, millions of people really isn't a large percentage of the world's population. I cn name 2 people on these boards who believe that. Only two. And I couln't name anybody off these boards who believe it.

Not really. I just looked around and started to feel like I was only really believing it because others didn't, like I was trying to stand out

No, it was never a religeous thing, which is why I really don't feel guilty, or in-fact, any different about not believing this anymore.

Why? If you're convincing enough, they might close it for you
That's fine, good for him. But if I ever got to hear that he'd changed his mind and just slept with someone, I'd have an extremely low opinion of him for being so morally superior and preaching so much and behaving holier-than-thou all the time, and then just going back on it completely.
See my point?
Lol, it wasn't even important to him anyway. It doesn't matter.
To quote American Pie, "It's just sex, not a space shuttle launch".
why do i find myself agreeing with you so fucking often :eek2:
so very wrong
Personally, I'm a bit unimpressed that Skateside's just thrown away his principles because no one else shared them, but still I think he doesn't deserve as much bashing as he's getting...
CharBaby there are millions of sex acts every day of course, but there's still a sex forum here so people can talk about it and get advice and/or reactions - I don't think he was just attention seeking; it was probably quite a big decision for him to make so he wanted to sound off about it....?
Let's just leave the thread alone...........
I don't want to cause an argument but i feel so angered by this thread that i have to respond. Heck, the guy didn't say anything so nasty as to deserve this amount of sheer vitriol. Why shouldn't he post somethin that he wants to, he was just interested in people's responses.
People write in about much more tedious stuff than this everyday and they don't get this amount of abuse. I thought the point of this site was to provide a forum for people to share opinions and advice, not to abuse someone as soon as they open their mouth. And to the people who are being abusive ( i think you know who you are) - if you don't care so much why keep posting whingeing about it, no-one's forcing you to read it - unless you just want to get your post count up and to hell with common human decency
I think the reason some people got pissed about ss's post is because it seemed -to some- like quite an attention seeking useless thread. He could have said what he was after, like been upfront about it, and i doubt he'd have copped nearly enough abuse.
What you need to understand is that this is a community and like all communities everything isn't always how you'd like it to be. I mean fuck, there are going to be fights/arguing etc.
its part of life
don't
patronise me.
just because its what happens "in life" doesn't make it right, does it?
what ya gonna do if she does exactly?
still havent awnsered my question? and ive never said i wasnt gonna post in this thread dumbfuck
ah, you're so lovely - and i never said that either -cherry blossom!
Well you're keeping it open love!!
What am i going to do, well of course im going to take my duelling sword and challenge fugue to a battle for the kingdom and a dubloon of jewels..........................................
In conclusion, Skateside, good on you for sticking to your guns but believe me you've got a lot of fun headed your way when you meet that special someone.
Sorry for all that abuse you seem to have recieved, hope it hasnt put you off posting in this topic!
xx:)
If I was a moderator, I think I'd close it too. I don't like people from these boards just bitching at each other, and it's made me feel pretty bad to see that I've made some people go at each other. I hate doing that
dare? dare? are you fucking serious? How the hell do you think you are. I mean shit, that's pathetic. You sound like you think your some kind of royalty who can't believe i had the audacity to patronise you.:eek2:
do you think you are better than the rest of us, cos let me tell you, you're not.
and then to go on about char answering the fucking thread...some people just need to grow up
Can we PLEASE stop it. The nastiness in this thread has gone on for too long.
Thanks,
CB
