ima laf @ u!

Sorry about that, I just find it funny that you don't like Flower

No, but I made sure I gave it to someone who deserved it.

Do animals count?

If it's not a personal question, there's something I've often wandered about abstinence. Can you do *shifts eyes away*, y'know, other stuff?

Rocketpig, as long as it was consensual it counts.

Especially when it's KosmoMiss Piggy.

I wonder why I don't believe you. Call me skeptic

YES

& I'm proud

BUT HOWWWWWWWWW?

how can you resist?

Thats really up to the couple, I guess. In our situation some....Things....Go on that aren't sex. Of course, we try to avoid it as much as possible, as it does make staying abstinence more difficult.

I could cite a few things:

• God. Having a moral basis for staying abstinent helps. Also, having a focus on that set of morals helps avoid lust and other things that make resisting much easier.
• The actual relationship. I know a lot of people argue that sex brings people closer together, and I am sure it does if your wholly committed (ie married), however, I think that being abstinent makes a relationship much, much stronger. When your not focusing on the physical aspects, then you are focusing on the mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of the relationship. If your not learning about being good in bed, then you are (or at least should be) learning about how to handle having a strong relationship with that person. The thing is, my relationship with my fiancee is so strong that I don't need sex to define the relationship - she is my best friend so there is far more to what we do as a couple than to make sex a priority.
• The fear of pregnancy always helps :-p

Hmmm... *rolls eyes* I think I'm going to plead the 5th on that. However, I will say that this thread has been necroed more times than the number of partners I've had...
