My (22f) Boyfriend (27m) of 2 years just told me wants to wait until marriage to have sex
Okay.. this just happened 30 mins ago and I’m super confused and in need of advice. Today I tried to initiate sex with my (22f) boyfriend (27m), to which I was turned down. He had been turning my advances down for the last few days, so I asked whats up. He said he wants to wait until we get married to have sex. He’s religious, and he says it’s the best thing for us because we don’t want kids yet so he doesn’t even want to risk it. Here’s the part I’m baffled by… we’ve been having sex on a regular basis over the past 2 years. I asked him why he suddenly wants to stop if we’ve been having sex already, and he gives the same answers. “It’s wrong before marriage” and “we’re just doing it because it feels good” and “sex is a special moment between husband and wife”. He’s not wrong, but I don’t want to wait until marriage. I’m so confused. Help.
TL;DR - boyfriend of 2 years turned down sex and said he wants to wait until marriage. We’ve been having sex regularly for our entire relationship. I’m not cool with waiting especially when we’ve been doing it regularly. Help.
