chaos answered Thursday August 12 2004, 1:37 pm: It's hard to practice self control, but at some point you have to trust yourself too. If you are having problems, pray about it.
If your boyfriend is listening to other people's lies, you can't do much of anything except ask him to trust you. If he doesn't trust you, you don't have a relationship.
It is ok to kiss and things, just know when to stop. It will take practice to get used not doing all the bad things you used to. You are human, and you will make mistakes. I have been there, and I have a loving boyfriend who treats me well. We still cuddle, and we still kiss.
Just think about what you are doing before you do it. I would suggest not tempting yourself by having him over when your parents aren't home. [ chaos's advice column | Ask chaos A Question ]
xxxxxx answered Thursday August 12 2004, 12:37 pm: Well if your boyfriend is concerned about all the things you've done in the past, I doubt he's gonna come on to you like that. Why would he be all touchy feely? I don't understand. But he's being a good guy since he loves you for who you are. Don't have sex with him or anything, because that's a really indepth thing to get into and should be talked about first. Tell him that you're not into that stuff! Talk to him online if it's really that hard. Hope I helped! PS - real men love Jesus. God bless dude! [ xxxxxx's advice column | Ask xxxxxx A Question ]
BeezKneez answered Thursday August 12 2004, 12:01 pm: WOw, I know how that is. Suprisingly, I've gone through pretty much the same thing (meeting the boy when I asked 4 Jesus, I used 2 b bad, the boy is very religious, the boy getting touchy and so on). Anyways... it sounds like this guy really cares about u if he's willing 2 not look @ all the stuff that has gone on in ur past. With that, plus with him being religious, if sumthin starts 2 happen that u don't want 2, just tell him "no." I truthfully think he'd respect u if u felt like things were going 2 far. Let me know how everything works out and good luck with him!! [ BeezKneez's advice column | Ask BeezKneez A Question ]
Shandiebaby11 answered Thursday August 12 2004, 11:44 am: Girl I have been in the same boat ! I asked Jesus into my heart about 6 months ago and it changed my whole life. You should sit down with your boy friend and tell him that you think the two of you should pray about it and try to wait to do sexually stuff when you get married. If he loves you and cares about what God thinks he will totally understand ! Also congrats on giving ur heart to Jesus he is soo awesome he is the friend that will never let u down ! Feel free to ask me questions anytime ! :) [ Shandiebaby11's advice column | Ask Shandiebaby11 A Question ]
