...[figuratively])? To begin with, this is a serious question for fellow Christians.
When the bible talks about fornication and marriage, it was simpler then and not as complex as now. Theres a verse that tells to handle your own needs by marriage, otherwise abstain from it (if I am correct, still new to it). But the problem is unlike then when you could have an arranged marriage, or to go search for a partner in a time where there were multitudes of same faith and respect, whereas now we are surrounded by sexuality, people are subjected to enabling or lack of self control, not to mention the increase in difficulty in finding those of the same faith and respect. On top of that, because of this there is pressure on women to be more indecisive on who to pick for partnership. In essence there is people on both sides, men and women, who make it EXTREMELY harder for those of us that are serious. In short we as Christians are now subjected to waiting a LONG time for companionship, how should we handle ourselves in the meanwhile now that the ante is upped? I believe that I can distract myself only for so long now that porn and imaginizing (lust) are shoved out of my mind. Its like I got the itch I can't scratch. Just for clarification, I seek the emotional companionship (to share and love), its my body's need for the physical one thats killing me physically and emotionally.
Sorry grammar nazis. Did lol at the no-mans land bit. I am a male, 20.
