Abstinence & Celibacy Support Group
The pressures of sex from peers, the media and culture can be overwhelming, but you are in total control of your body and celibacy is a choice that many are making. Find sanctuary with people who are choosing to abstain without fear of judgment.

I decided to join this group the 2nd time I came across it. I am newly broken up with my boyfriend. I realized I belong here because I was celibate before this last relationship for a long time for me. My first relationship ever was one where I wanted to wait for marriage, he talked me out of it eventually, and I went through years of relationships and flings. I'm at the point where I don't want sex without love, and a loving relationship to me is beginning to take on a new importance. The last relationship I had the loving treatment stopped, and I do not wan to be sexual with someone like that. I am ready to wait until God brings me someone I am meant to be with, I do not want to be casual with my sexuality. I am at the point where this group is helpful to me for me to have an awareness of what is best for me, and to not let my sexual connection with my former mate lead me back to him, or to try to replace that with someone else when clearly the emotional or spiritual connection is not there.

I too think you made a good decision. I am for one that has had plenty of sex, but no real caring relationships. Came to a crossroad where I had make a decision. Sex without emotional attactment or no sex at all. As I pray on what do about my sex life, I ran into Daily Strength. And made the decision to become sexually abstinence. Didn't know at the time if it was right for me. First I thought it was for teens and virgins. Glad to see others like me that want to change their lifestyle. I like to welcome you here and hope your journey here to be pleasant one.

Hey, I read a book that utterly changed my views on relationships and how to keep my heart clean before God written by Joshua Harris. It's titled "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" and it really opened my eyes to some of the pitfalls of my previous relationships. I hope that's helpful to you. Either way, let me know what you think. I'd love to talk to you about this. I'll help you anyway I can... Good job by the way. You have made a good decision.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
