Would you run a race to lose? NO. Would you get married to get divorced? NO!
For any of you who want to get married someday (according to the CDC, over 2 million people get hitched every year) abstinence is your ticket to a life-long, committed, monogamous and faithful marriage! “Huh?” you say?
Remaining abstinent until marriage develops self control that a marriage takes to work, strengthens the love that only wants the best for the other person, and builds the character you need to be the best husband or wife that makes a happy and healthy marriage.

PLUS, married couples who waited to become sexually active until marriage reported having a happier, healthier lifestyle and a more satisfied sex life than couples who did not wait.1
One more point scored for Abstinence!
