Around a year and a half ago, I split up with my highschool sweetheart. We had been dating for around 5 years, a bit more, and all of a sudden, everything simply changed. We were going to different colleges, didn't have enough time to see each other, and our anger got in the way and we split.

 

Needless to say, I was devastated. I tried dating someone shortly after, but all he wanted was sex, so that never happend.

 

Since then, I have seen around 2 guys. One guy, we didn't click. We're friends now, but his rejection is still stinging a bit, especially since he got into a relationship with another woman immediately after.

 

This second guy that I am currently dating, seems wonderful. We have talked quite a bit and he seems nice and sincere. He isn't after sex and doesn't see it as the sole factor in a relationship, or one that is extremely important, which is perfect for me as I am saving myself till marriage. Although my ex of 5 years, he and I did have sex, but since then, I haven't slept with anyone. And I am fine with that, I want the next time I have sex to be on my wedding night.

 

Overall, this guy seems perfect, yet I find myself having doubts and debating whether or not I should continue seeing him. We're supposed to go on a date in a week for bowling and I'm nervous. I can feel my stomach tangled up in knots.

 

What to do? Anyone got any advice?

go and have a fun time and take it day at a time. If dating this guy does not work out so be it and keep your head up .

I'll try. I'm nervous and I spook easily, so I've been told. I don't want to mess things up with him. We have been dating a week already and I've found he is very easy to talk to and comforting.

I am failing to see any issues or irregularities here.

 

You're nervous to go on a date with someone? Normal.

 

You want a guy who isn't going to use you for sex? Normal.

 

You're inexperienced and unsure of how to handle things? Normal.

 

Enjoy your date and don't over-think everything. ;)

 

Unless there's some problems you've yet to mention of the guy you're seeing, just take things as they come. If you wish to wait until marriage to have sex, that's your choice, and you should be able to find someone who will wait. If you were comfortable doing it once however, you're more likely to be comfortable doing it again should proper circumstances arise. If you're dead-set on waiting, then you're going to have to find someone who is okay with that, and there are many out there who are, but you'd likely have to seek like-minded individuals (religious I'm assuming) as most men these days find that to be an inconvenience.
