I haven’t had sex in 6 months, is this bad?

I’m almost 22 and I dated a girl for 4 years. We had sex all the time and it was great. She cheated on me roughly 6 months ago and we ended it. I’m happier than i have ever been and I am really enjoying being single. I have only been on a couple of dates and I don’t really enjoy it. My room mates are all single so we just hangout and stuff and it’s nice to only worry about myself for once. However I haven’t had sex in 6 months and personally I am okay with that but I feel like there is pressure to be having sex. Of course I would love to have sex but I’m not the one night stand type of guy and since I’m not looking for a relationship there is no sex. I have no idea when I will have sex again. What is your opinion on This? Should I be having sex? Is it bad I’m not? Just need some advice. Is it weird I’m not? Is it bad i don’t want a relationship?

  • Get married if you want sex, sex is not a plaything. It's good you aren't having sex besides it's a sin before marriage. Your happier because you're not compromising yourself like you did before. You feel pressure because you're tempted to sin again, and that should be a sign for you to say 'stop'. It is not weird. And it's not bad you don't want a relationship. You're doing good for yourself, but you're what I like to call 'in withdrawal'. Just like an alcoholic or a chain smoker. This is what's happening to you. The reason why she cheated is because she didn't wait to have sex like you did, and it taught her that she can do whatever she wanted sexually. That should be a lesson for you to learn from. While not everybody who has premarital sex cheats. It does change and effects your mindset and overall growth in all areas in your life and what makes up part of your life. I'm almost 26 and is still a virgin. And no, you're not going to die from sex, and neither are you going to suffer so much from not having it in a long time. It has to do with self-control and self-discipline. It will be tough, but it is worth it. The best things in life come's with harder choices

  • Nothing wrong with it at all, I'm 24 and haven't had sex in about 8-9 months. You need to do what makes you comfortable in life and work on you. It's the best thing you can do.
