You never know.

Our culture has taught that sex before marriage is recreational and that once you get married, you can simply wipe the slate cleam, commit yourself to be sexually faithful to ur partner and all will go well.

However, it is not easy to wipe the psychological slate clean. Some couples desire to know their spouse sexual history, and when they know it, it sometimes becomes a memory that is difficult to erase.

So what is your logic about this topic?

Indeed, communication plays a big role in a succesful marriage. No doubt on that.

Something we must examine is whether or not we Christians are required to keep Old Testament Law. No we are not. Now, this does not mean it's okay to lie, to cheat, and to steal. It means that we are not required to keep Old Testament Law in order to get or maintain our salvation. This is because we have died to the law and because of that, all things are lawful to us.

Rom. 7:1 ,4 , "Or do you not know, brethren (for I am speaking to those who know the
law), that the law has jurisdiction over a person as long as he lives? ...4 Therefore, my brethren, you also were made to die to the Law through the body of Christ, that you
might be joined to another, to Him who was raised from the dead, that we might bear
fruit for God."

1 Cor. 6:12 , "All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything."

If a person wants to maintain that a Christian should keep the Old Testament Law
concerning tattoos, then do they also keep the Old Testament law concerning not
shaving the beard? Also, what would they do with the Scriptures that say we have died to the law and that all things are lawful? Would
they require legalism?

I don't have tattoes but just want to say that.

Do you think you hold enough in common to build spiritual intimacy in your marriage?

Many couples never get around discussing their religious beliefs at all. A religion needs to be near the top list in matters that need to be discussed. The question is "Are our spiritual beliefs compatible" or "Are me marching to the beat of the same drum?". To marry simply because you are "in love" and to ignore the implication of these spiritual differences is a sign of immaturity.

Dang, I hate Mayweather.

I always find myself listening to old classical music like of Brahms, Handel, Mozart, Beethoven etc. Piano songs are the best! It is very refreshing, serene and peaceful. Listen into it while closing your eyes and you will feel you are touching the nature, waves and life. Soothing and very relaxing. Classical music is forever=))

There are many kinds of research, is all. But I want to agree also that there are research that has been made and purely bias to the researcher/s hope as its result. Its a case to case basis afterall.

But given this topic, well I strongly vote that this is true for you can see the rate..I dont want to offend a race but in a country where premarital sex is pervasive, you can also see how obvious and high the divorce rate..compared to the country where premarital sex is not a culture or for them its a taboo..the divorce rate is very low.

But knowing this facts, there is a need to be openminded for there are circumstances that leads a couple to a succesful relationship.

Let's just say every person have his/her own poetic side and maybe some of them are undiscovered before that certain person.

Well, I would like to believe also on that perspective.

And anyway, if my profile scare them away I don't mind at all. And thanks again for another "compliment".

Research indicates that couples who have sexual intercourse before marriage have a higher divorce rate than those who do not. Why do you think this would be true? or do you believe on the idea that sexual experience before marriage better PREPARES you for marriage?

To what degree have you explored the more important issues of the compatibility in this areas?

Intellectual Dialogue
Emotional Control
Social Interest
Spiritual Unity
Common Values

Thanks for the "compliment"..lol. I am realistic in some ways and definitely not a poet: )

I am new in this site, like I just signed up three hours ago. So far I haven't contact or anyone contact me yet, my profile scares them away..you think so? lol

To what degree have you shared your sexual history with the person you are dating?

I believe it is better to deal with past sexual experiences before marriage. When you are silent on this subject and enter marriage without discussing past sexual activities, almost always the past has a way of erupting into present. When it comes to marriage, something deep within the human psyche cries out of an exclusive relationship. And we are pained by the though that our date or spouse has been sexually intimate with others. The reality is previous sexual experience becomes a psychological barrier in achieving sexual unity in marriage. Thus, there is a need to discuss and be open about it:)

Thats part of since physical and sexual touch is essential to both sexes..foreplay. But the question is, what could you do that would make the sexual part of the marriage better to both of you?

How are you going to express your love effectively? how are you going to connect with each other and keep emotional love alive?

Hahaha! yes, you know confusion over roles is one of the most stressful aspects of contemporary marriages. Who does this and that.

That being inlove is not an adequate foundation of a succesful marriage.

That the saying "Like Mother, like daughter" and "Like father, like son" is not a myth.

Arguing is not a solution to the problem.

That apologizing is a sign of strength.

That forgiveness is not a feeling.

That toilets are not self cleaning.

That we needed a plan of handling money.

That mutual sexual fulfillment is not automatic.

That I was marrying into a family.

That spirtiuality is not equated in going to church.

That personality profoundly influences behavior.

I am not divorce. At least I knew this one
