Why do people want to wait till they are married to have sex?

Most of the time its religion. Like Christianity, they believe that sex is a gift from God for married couples. Another reason is that when you have sex with a guy,you give him a part of your heart. When you give it away you don't get it back without it being ragged.
 
Sex is a whole different thing when you are married and committed. Really. There is an element of trust and permanence and connection that just isn't there otherwise. When you link up with someone for the rest of your life - if both people have the true commitment and understanding of marriage and what it means - then you have a connection with them that you have with no other person on the planet.

The reason people wait is because they want to only have sex when it has that significance. If one has sex for other reasons, outside of marriage it sometimes loses that significance even after you do get married. That doesn't mean you can't experience that if you have already had sex with that person or even with others - it's just more difficult to achieve.

There is also the danger of STD's and if you haven't had sex before you don't have to be concerned about that issue with your new spouse.
 
I don't want to get a STD or an unwanted pregnancy. I respect myself enough to not sleep around. I also love God and Jesus Christ enough when they say they "delight in the chastity of women". I also love my future husband enough to give him a clean and pure body. I don't want him to have to worry about getting an STD.
 
Because they have religious conviction and morals. They think sex is something special and you should only do those acts with someone to whom you are committed lifelong.
 
religious reasons or personal choice because they do not want to have any regrets and they want to give their mind, body, heart, and soul to that one and only person. it has been shown that couples who wait until marriage to have sex have a much lesser risk of getting a divorce rather than couples who don't. i don't mean to sound preachy because i did not wait until i was married to have sex, but that is what i think.
