Wait until the right one comes along

The first time I had sex was during a pint in my life when I felt aimless and helpless. I was 18, and about to study in a new city, which was far away from my hometoun.

 

I thought that being with a girl would help cheer me up. I wasn't sure if I loved her, but she was one of the most popular girls in school. So when we came together, all of my friends were jealous.

 

We hooked up for a few months before breaking up. It wasn't until three years later that I started to realize the mistake I had made.

 

I met another girl that I fell absolutely head over heels for and wished that I could marry her one day. When she asked me if I had ever slept with other girls before, I told her the truth because I really loved her.

 

She cried in the bathroom for an hour. It took me a long time to persuade her to come out.

 

After one year, we are still together. But the relationship has always felt a little tense for the reason, Sometimes she brings my sexual experience when we quarrel, and I feel so bad.

 

After hearing this story, one of my friends had a long talk with me. He said: for any serious relationship, the commitment isn't actually made on the day when you slide a ring on his or her finger and say "I do". It is in the years before that - you should save your first time for your beloved one.

 

I regret my mistake, but it's too late for me. Friends, don't lose your virginity before the wedding night.
