Just met someone few days back and we became friends. I don't like her but we have got ourself into a relationship that is the physical kind. I know i don't like her or love her but we developed this physical intimation and she too has no objections to it. SO is it ok if I Carry on with this relationship. we have not gone to the extreme yet but she is ready and has no problem but as for me sometimes i feel guilty and my conscience priks me.
I am an honest and I feel how will I face and tell the truth to the person who will be my soul mate. No one's in my life now but some day she will come so what then.My friends tells me just take what you get but is it worth taking??

hello lovenluck :-) you are probably having a moral dilemma so i will apply one way to check if what you are doing is right. well if the girl is fine with it and the two of you knows what you're getting yourself into then i see nothing wrong with it. However you two have also to be ready to accept and be responsible for the consequences of your actions.

if your conscience is bothering you then maybe you should not do it. That should tell you something

I wonder if you're an asian or from a western country. I am from the Philippines and somehow our culture taught us to avoid pre-marital physical contacts. But the new generation has been so liberated lately that everyone engaged in physical relationship even at an early stage. Some says this is alright because one has to assure of physical compatibility
Even if your guilt is bothering you, you're already at it. It is aready a part of your past. All you have to do now, in case you meet the right person, you have to be open and tell her about it. If she really loves you, she'll accept everything about you. It's a package deal, loving our partner means acceptance of everything positive and negative... I hope this helps..

no i am not already in to it, if it was no point discussing it. I am an Asian and we too avoid pre;marital contacts ,hence i don't feel good about it.

Always follow your conscience it will never lead you astray....that's why you have it. Trust me you may only get a slight satisfaction that will mean nothing to you. Ask yourself if it is worth your self respect and then you will have your answer. Your soulmate is out ther waiitng on you why muddle your path?.

i think the relationship that you're both having right now will go into something deeper.If you know from the start that it will go nowhere, I think you have to end it so as to avoid any conflicts in the future. You said that your conscience is bugging you, so why continue ?

hmm... if your conscience really bugs you don't do it... make it a mind over matter decision... prove to your friends that not all chickens eats the corn that's right in front of them... physical satisfaction is temporary but spiritual righteousness is permanent...

Mind over mater decision, that's true but very hard to execute isn't it. Yes my mind tells me don't do it but again that lust creeps in. It's a bloody feeling a fight between mind and body.

yes it is... but if you're strong-willed and truly a righteous person you'll get over it... think about the consequences... think about the future... think about how the other person would truly feel afterwards... think about how your conscience will haunt you afterwards... ask yourself: can you really take the after effects? would your temporary satisfaction be worth the destruction of your lifelong inner peace?

my friend,what i will advice is that in most of these situations in which you get only physically attracted to a lady.In my view it is usually not what it because in my own experience what she will normally do is to bang you and abandone you.And I bet you, you be the one to start regretting.Love is all that matters.I advice you to quite the relationship and look for some one who trully loves you soul, body and spirit.

Hello there, you said your friends tell you just take what you get…but I think this is what you are doing right now. As you have said you don't like her or love her but you both developed this physical intimation.
So, is it ok to satisfy your physical self? The answer is up to the individual. As long as you accept the way you are doing, it will be ok. For me, I wouldn’t do this only because of the physical needs as I have faith, respect and boundary for myself.
In this world, ‘same bread feed different people’. I respect different culture and religions. So I won’t point my finger to anyone who does something that I disagree. On the contrary, I will accept and pay respect.

no, not that way it is all wrong. you do not like her or love'her so you are essentially just using her and thats
a lousy thing to do to another human being just because she
goes along with it. Does she love you or like you if so you
are doubly wrong as it is bound to hurt her when she'
sees this discussion. you are being totally selfish and that'should make you feel really guilty.

Dude, do yourself a favor. Tell her at once because you're going to answer for a lot of things later on in your life. And more importantly, how will you explain that to Christ when he asked you about it? For sure there's a day for all of what we thought, said, and did. And pls. be fair to that poor girl. Although she is partly to blame because she easily gave herself to you. It's never too late. Something cannot be taken back but I guess it's wrong to continue that. And I'm sorry to say this but what your friends said was a terrible advice.

i don't think you will feel the best feeling that a true inlove is...still love rules,and to feel inlove is just the most sweetest and inspiration that you will ever encounter,so be inlove and not just do hunky punky sorry for the words but this is just what i think about your situation

For me, I won't get in myself in to that kind of relationship. I'm just trying to make or do something that I would surely feel regretful in the end. Especially that I'm a woman. But even if you're a guy, you should respect women and yourself as well.
Your body is the temple of God.

May be its okay to , but are you sure, she has no other feelings, but just as you do only wnat to staisfy herself? If she has some feelings for you, you better stop this now, but if she doesnt, you could go on. But then again if ur inner feeling doesnt want you to do it, then just dont do it.

Hi lovenluck!
I don't think its bad to satisfy one's physical self. As long as it doesn't hurt anybody and they're both single and when both parties are willing. But if you don't feel comfortable doing it then don't.
I think this is where you will discover the real meaning of being a man. For me being a real man is standing up to what he believes. Just think of it this way, God created us placing the brain above anything else.
Ciao!
