Thanks again for responding.
Let me clear: I have no desire to push her past her boundaries or to coax her into doing anything that goes against her morals.
I haven’t had too many relationships though I’ve had a lot of women who’ve been interested in me but who I’ve ended things with before they really got started because I tend to try and find out quickly whether or not women have any potential for marriage. That’s probably why my questioning seems so awkward.
For me, my reason for being abstinent is religiously-influenced but definitely an extremely strong personal value now because I don’t even reference or think of religion at all when I explain myself. For her, it’s religiously-influenced but she’s slipped into sex before that led to severe guilt, depression, and suicidal thoughts that she received counseling for over a number of years (I was around her when she was going through that years ago). I guess that’s why I worry that she might get bored of the level of physical intimacy we’re engaging in. With that said, is there any further it can go without crossing the boundaries she’s set up? Yes, I’m literally that clueless.
Thanks.
