Many people I talk too can't stop laughing when I tell them I don't plan on having sex until I get married. They say I'm just being ridiculous and then criticize me saying "I should grow up". I don't get it, if Sex is all it's cracked up to be, why wouldn't I want to do it with the person I love? Why would I want to participate in something so great so casually with people I might not care about? I have nothing against people who do have sex casually. I don't see shame in people wanting to feel needed even if it's only physical. I'm not here to judge (I gave a different thread for that), But why is my view apparently so obtuse that it's bad?
Maybe it's because I didn't grow up around the topic casually. I'm not really a fan of talking about it casually, and it's only easy for me to do it here cause there's a level of anonymity on the internet.
EDIT 9/20/13: The views expressed in this OP, are no longer up to date and have changed.

i'm not against it but i find it a little silly because i'd have thought whether you're sexually compatible would be a fundamental part of finding out whether you love them or not. if she's the love of your life but she's crap in bed then you're naturally going to want something 'better' in bed which, if the two of you are married, more than likely will lead you to unfaithfulness.
