We met at high school, 2001, were prom mates following year, and we didn\u2019t kiss.

Both of us were virgins too.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I had to be clear with her from word go that I respected her body, preferred we don\u2019t even kiss. I believed in being a gentleman, not rushing a woman. I also mentioned to her that I prefer we don\u2019t even kiss because I knew that the moment we kissed, we\u2019d fall into the trap of sex before marriage.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I wanted us to get to marriage pure. We also believed in the biblical principle of \u201cno sex before marriage\u201d. So to those dating and believe in no sex before marriage, it\u2019s possible.
