Sexy, celibate and sane. We live in a world where sex sells and abstinence is frowned upon. My story talks about celibacy, along with some childhood, teenage, and adult moments that may have sealed my decision to refrain from sex outside a committed relationship. There is a lot of emphasis placed on sex in relationships, but when did we forget to factor in love?
Many things may lead to our understanding about sex and how we ultimately feel when we are old enough to engage. The pitfalls of one relationship can easily cloud your judgment moving into another. Until we truly know and love ourselves as a whole person, we will not be able to sustain a right, rewarding, relationship with another. My time of celibacy has taught me so much about who I am and what I desire for my life, which has nothing to do with having a significant other.
