When you get married are you gonna marry someone who is experienced or a virgin? Personally, it doesn't matter to me. As long as the person truly loves me.

Marriage can be a "bed of roses" for some but it can also be a "bed of roses but full of thorns" for others. I've been married for 6 years to a man who's not really good with revealing his emotions. And it can be a problem...
