As an Olympic archer, Jennifer Nichols has no issue keeping her eye on her target, and her love and relationship values were no exception. In fact, the celibate athlete didn't even lock lips until she was 27 years old!
"I saved my first kiss for the man I knew I was going to marry -- my fiance," the 28-year-old devout Christian tells Us Weekly of smooching her now-fiance, Chris Hardy, 25. "I made that commitment when I was about 13 years old. I knew that I wanted to save my kiss on top of purity. I felt like a kiss was something very special and I wanted to save that."
For the pair, who met while attending Texas A&M and have been dating since December 2009, it was love at first sight -- or bite.
"We were both in the same political science class," Nichols describes to Us. "I saw him from across the room and I was really attracted to him and then one morning I was coming from my Arabic class and I had a box of donuts and I saw him sitting on a bench so I offered him some donuts."
It sounds like the Wyoming native has nabbed herself quite the top-notch man to marry. While she's busy training for her third Olympics, Hardy is putting his focus on their wedding, which is set to take place this fall.
"Chris is extremely involved in the planning process," she says. "We Skype like crazy. We email links back and forth of wedding venues and photographers."

Let people do what they want.
(I won't pretend the religion aspect isn't problematic, but I'll save that for another thread.)
i came here to say this
why should people have the right to judge her
it's her vagina, her mouth, her choice, leave her the fuck alone
i do really hate the language used here, though...calling it one's 'purity' implies that having had sex makes you 'impure' and that shit don't jibe with me and never has tbh
Apparently though choice is only a good thing when you happen to agree with it. Gotta love hypocritical bandwagon mentality :)

Right afterwards I was like I don't see what the big d is but the day after I felt so disgusted with myself and went through so many mixed emotions.
and true fax: vibe > guy (half the time)
I've had that approach throughout my sexual development/self-actualization and I feel like a sexual liberation cliche for it. I remember axing two separate experimental sex arrangements when I was in high school, and not because I was scared. Frankly, I was looking forward to it. But it became clear during the planning process that the dudes I would have messed with barely knew a thing about their own gonads, let alone how to go about properly deal with/protecting/pleasuring mine. And when you're self-assured and educated about what you want out of sex, you dont just settle and have sex with some schmoe for the sake of not having to be a virgin any more. At the very least, you see if you can bag someone who's eager to learn what makes the experience safe/enjoyable for the both of ya.
It's just a winning formula, for me anyway. Couldnt be happier. Just here to sip some of your Truth Tea.
and i'm 23
i don't have the time for a relationship, much less dating, and at this point, when i finally do get laid, i want it to be with someone i trust and know won't be an asshole later!
sameish age.
YOU GUYS I LOST MY VIRGINITY THIS WEEKEND THIS HAD BETTER BE A SEX POST.
/still ridin' the high
I mean, kind of... I don't feel any different because of the physical act but the realization that I'm no longer ~a virgin kind of did affect me (for the better), tbh
and I did have a continuous, like, mental ticker the whole time about subjects that had nothing to do with the actions at hand, including "fuck, I had no idea my bed creaked this much, these walls are paper thin, I'm going to have to apologize hardcore tomorrow to my housemate in the room nextdoor"
I don't think I'd ever realized how much my virginity played into my self-esteem issues until I took stock yesterday of how I feel now that I've gotten rid of it tbh
when will you be getting laid next?
how was it?!
CONGRATS ON THE SEX :D
i got too many urges and needs
i lost mine to my ex bf, and i couldn't have had it any other way
i'm glad that i can look back and be happy with the decision, even if it was later than most people
But was 20yo when I experienced ecstasy. lol.
it's pretty easy when guys never have shown an interest in you lol.
/csb
theyre so precious
This woman has not done that, as far as I can tell, so there IS that.
including judging other people for making stupid, sanctimonious choices
could i BE wearin' any more clothes?
never
hahahaaahaaha so awkward.
DEAD
....
Every day I pray to god that when I kiss someone, I won't look this fucking stupid lol.
