I think sex is a special thing, and I do want to save it for the right person.. As corney as that may sound.
Nothing corny about it. I find it insulting that some of the posters have equated abstinence with serious religious oppression.

Not so. There have been times in my life, where I have held off on sex. Not because I'm religious, not because I believe I have a higher moral code than everyone else, but for other less spirtual reasons.

Sex is a very 'special' thing. Especially with someone you're trying to build a relationship with.

I'm not saying "no sex ever..." quite the contrary. I've had my fair share of women, but with the 'special' ones, I find it's so much easier to build something solid with someone when I'm not trying to get her to take off her clothes.

Without having that pressure, in my experience, it allows me to focus on the more important things. Once were comfortable with each other we can focus on sex.
