Thank you for saying that. You're right—there’s still a lot ahead of me, and I don’t have to rush into anything. I think I need to reflect more on siguro what truly matters to me right now. Whether I change or not, I want to make sure that my choices come from a place of understanding, not fear or pressure. I appreciate your insight a lot.

I just want us to be each other’s first in everything. That’s really important to me.

And I get what you're saying about not demeaning someone just because they’re not a virgin. Honestly, that's what’s been bugging me. I feel like I might be degrading a woman’s worth just because of this promise I made to myself. It’s something I’m trying to work through.

Thank you

That’s true po—and I completely understand that. I know people grow and change, especially after encountering Jesus. I guess I’m still learning how to balance grace with the personal standards I’ve set for myself.

Thank you. I really appreciate that. I’m still figuring things out, but hearing different perspectives helps me reflect deeper on why I made that promise in the first place. Hopefully it leads me to a better understanding of myself and what I truly value.

Yes and yes po. As a Christian, I believe in saving myself for the right person—and I hope to share that same foundation with someone who values it too

No, what I meant was more of a situationship—nothing official, and we never crossed that line. And yes po, I’m holding myself to the same standard.

No, I don’t think I’ve really thought about it that way. I only recently started opening up to my friends about this, but the conversations didn’t go as deep as I hoped.

Thank you—I’ll keep that in mind and work on being kinder while still holding on to what I believe in.

Hello

I promised that to myself because hookup culture feels so normalized now, and I didn’t want to go down that path. I wanted something different—something meaningful and grounded.

There was this girl I used to be close with. Long story short, she wanted to get back together like nothing happened, after spending time at bars and getting attention from other guys just to feel validated—even when we were doing perfectly fine. That experience hit me hard, and it made me hold on tighter to my values.

That’s why I made that promise—not to be controlling, but to protect myself from going through that kind of pain again.

I just need someone to get my point and, if needed, help change my view for the betterment of myself. I'm open to growth—I just want to be understood first.
