Feeling guilty when having sex?

I come from a religious family and they have always told me that it is a sin to have sex before marriage. I have a boyfriend and sometimes we have sex but the problem is I feel guilty when I am having sex. My mother is making me feel really bad and I cannot really enjoy sex and i constantly think that I am doing something wrong.
Am I really doing something wrong?

  • Agreed with clampfan but I wanted to add that if you decide to do it, don’t do it with guilt. Decide one thing or another and forget the guilt.
    Also, don’t deny parts of yourself as it can result in them showing more. It’s like when we judge other people, we often have the same characteristic in ourselves and deny it.

  • No, you aren't. Feeling guilty is a choice you don't have to make. You are an adult and it's time to outgrow your parent's dogma and decide for yourself. In first-world countries, almost all adults have sex before marriage. You don't say what religion your family practices. If they are Christian, there are many Christian denominations that accept premarital sex between consenting partners. You can choose one that agrees with you.

  • No you sure absolutely not feel guilty, it's human nature to want sex. Humans have been walking this earth for 6 million years, we've only been getting married for around 4500 years, sex between partbers that aren't married is far more the norm than getting married before sex. Marriage in the scheme of things is a new comcept in terms of the human timeline.

  • Wrong or not, you already chosen your path.

  • Then stop having sex for the time being, but no, you are not doing anything wrong.

  • I agree it should come after marriage, and not only because of religion.

    • Agreed. Same opinion, not only because of religion.

  • Depends if you follow religion or not. When you are experiencing is religious guilt from you growing up in a cult. Your common sense tells you it is okay but your upbringing is telling you it isn't. Sin is a man made idea. Sin is based on your morals and values not others.

  • Sex within a committed relationship is common. It is still frowned upon in religious settings, but virtually everyone in the Western world does it before marriage

  • That is completely up to you you’re a grown woman. Do you believe it whole heartedly religious wise that it is a sin to do that? Is so then I’d suggest stopping. But if you only believe that because your mom is making you feel like shit than you need to live your life the way you want. What makes you happy. You can’t make everyone happy. So do what makes you and your partner happy.
