Help! How do I tell my non christian boyfriend that I don't want to have sex until I'm married?

Hi, I'm a 20 years old christian and I've been dating a guy who's not christian for about a month. Whenever we're together we cuddle and ciuman and I can see that he wants us to go further and have sex (which is the most normal thing for a couple nowadays), but even if I also want to, I always stop it there because I don't want to have sex until I'm married.

How can I tell him in the smoothest possible way? I just don't want him to be mad at me. If he can't stand this and wants to break up, that's okay because this is important for my beliefs but I just don't want him to get angry... We haven't talked about religion at all yet.

I will be honest, it may be better to not be in the relationship at all, just to avoid the temptation. If he wants to have sex, that means at the right opportunity atau when anda say anda are ready (even if anda aren't sure), he will have sex because he doesn't value "waiting".

ciuman and cuddling can lead to sex, so if anda want to avoid premarital sex, avoid touching as much as possible with your boyfriend, unless he is the type that truly wants to wait to.

I am saying that because lots of girls who have had boyfriends who all they did was ciuman and cuddle, 8/10 ended up having sex with that guy before they eventually got married

In a relationship it is important to be upfront and honest about values because most times we want relationships to last, so its a good to talk about values and religion, so that anda can avoid fights down the road because of a difference of beliefs, anda would be better prepared for discussions. If he cares about anda then he won't be angry.

However as a girl (i hope) anda should be aware that he is a guy, and guys think about sex esp if they had sex before. So don't do things to tempt him, ciuman and cuddling could be a tease for him, so while anda may be patient and wait, consider his feelings and and work on lebih ways to be intimate that don't involve having to be "intimate" because while anda are set in your ways, he could struggle and a sexual frustrated bf (or gf) isn't always a nice person to be around.

Be honest to him, the only thing he can say is no.

I'm not a christian despite my presence in this spot, but I don't think this is a christian-only question, so here are my thoughts:

anda berkata anda haven't spoken with him about religion yet. I suggest having this conversation might be good for you. Religion seems to be an incredibly important aspect of your life, so sharing it with him could be a start. Personally, I wouldn't enter into a relationship with someone who I wasn't comfortable discussing religion with. anda may be totally different, and that is fine, but it does seem to me that if your religious beliefs are significant to you, anda should feel able to discuss them with him.

Whether anda take that as a first step atau not, anda should be direct and honest with him about the sex stuff. Your body, your beliefs, your choice. Make sure he understands what that means. Being worried about his feelings cannot come at the expense of your own. Besides, if anda explain that your choices are deeply personal to you, and nothing to do with him as a person, he should be able to understand that your choices are about you, not him. But again, I think a conversation about religion may help contextualise everything.

So that is my advice: be upfront and own your choices. Your body, your beliefs, your choices.

Definitely interesting to have this perspective, a very thoughtfully answered post.

Hi.
This is a good example of why the Bible talks about not being "unequally yoked". If anda tanggal and marry someone who doesn't share your beliefs, so many problems arise - and some will be very serious. Do anda want to marry this man eventually? Would anda want children who are raised in a halaman awal where the parents disagree about the most important thing in life?

It's tough, I know, but i think anda have another pertanyaan that has to be asked - why am I seeing someone who has different core beliefs and values than i do? anda do not ever need to feel bad about what anda believe! And God tells us to wait for marriage to protect us and to provide for us! :) Not to take away our fun. Hang in there - I know it's tough now, but honey it is so worth it to spend your time and jantung with someone who shares your beliefs.

if he doesn't respect your faith, doesn't respect that anda don't want to have sex until marriage, if he can't live with that then it's probably a sign that anda two don't belong together, because if anda can't even agree on that, sorry to say but you're kind of screwed

Just tell him straight up. I he insists on having sex in order to be 'kept', he's not worth it.
I know that sounds harsh, but it's the truth, and the truth is sometimes harsh
