		<description>I&#039;ve read a fair amount of books on this topic. Here are some of my favorites:

&quot;Sex isn&#039;t the problem - Lust is.&quot; by Joshua Harris.  
&quot;What Women Wish You Knew About Dating&quot; by Stephen Simpson.

I also know there&#039;s a good one out there called &quot;When God Writes Your Love Story&quot; by Eric and Lesely Ludy.  I have yet to read it, but I&#039;ve read a lot of books by Eric Ludy, and he&#039;s got some good theology.</description>

		<description>An awkward topic, yay!  As someone who is awkward in general I&#039;ll take a stab at this.  

I&#039;ve dated two different girls.  They were the opposite when it came to &quot;experience.&quot; 

The first was had dated a few guys before me.  She was still a virgin, but had gotten very physical with her previous boyfriends.  When we started dating we said that we&#039;d only kiss, everything else would be off limis.  That didn&#039;t last. 

 We never did have sex, but we became more physical then I had thought I would before marriage.  Throughout it all I was always comparing myself to the guys she had dated and been with before me, and it wasn&#039;t healthy.  It lead to problems in our relationship, that&#039;s for sure.  

The other girl I dated had never had a boyfriend, never been kissed.  Let me tell you, there&#039;s something romantic about a guy being the girl&#039;s first kiss.  

I think it&#039;s harder for a guy (at least it was for me) to be with a girl who is &quot;experienced&quot; because we&#039;re afraid that we won&#039;t live up to her past experiences - that we won&#039;t be as memorable as the guys that she&#039;s been with before.  

I think I speek for most (if not all) of the Christian guys out there in saying that I want to marry a virgin.  If she has had sex in the past it&#039;s not a deal breaker, God does offer grace, after all, but it&#039;s one of those things that is on my list of important things.  

I would much rather be with a girl who has no &quot;experience&quot;.  That way we can build our experiences together.</description>
