Thanks for sharing this information. This is very encouraging.
That’s the way to go!
I find the Mowry and Mariah story bogus lol, should have been for me, first time, virgins and no other hey
I don’t get why a person should wait. I did! And when I did, I was married with that person for 7 years and then we seperated. Then I discovered my true love years a couple of years later. People make such a big deal about sex. The husband I have now, we both have had so many sexual experiences, that now we have had enough of that, and are glad we both got the experience, and have been committed with two children, and we spend every moment of our time together. We are glad that we weren’t virgins when we met.
