You are allowed to have that boundary 1000%. I think it would also help if you talked with her about it though.

Not the asshole. You can absolutely put that boundary down. Don’t have sex if you don’t want it

i mean the only thing i’d say is you should’ve made that clear before you started the relationship—everyone has their own needs and expectations and even though you’re completely valid for having boundaries, you should’ve made them clear so she could decide whether or not she wanted to continue the relationship

If you didn’t discuss this with her I can absolutely see how she could feel blindsided by it. Is there a specific reason you didn’t mention it before?

Yta then and definitely stupid af if you didn’t think you needed to go over boundaries before making it official

It’s dating not getting married? You ask your guy friends about sex all the time or something?

It just hadn’t come up yet, we’ve been dating for 2 weeks, so we’ve only hit the basics while gradually going farther in the relationship

That does make sense then, I can see why you would both feel the way you do. On one hand you are absolutely allowed your boundaries and whatever you want to do with your body. On the other hand she might feel like you’ve deceived her. I don’t know how long you two were talking before you entered a relationship

The point is it’s okay to have that boundary but you should’ve been honest about it before making it official. Because she’s also not wrong for wanting to have sex with her bf. If she knew from the beginning she wouldn’t be mad at you now

We pretty much started dating once we met, we never really had a talking stage, we were just around each other a lot cause we both new to the area and we hit it off

But no it’s not religious and I think that’s what bothers her the most about it

Well so do I, but that’s the whole point of dating to see if marriage will work out

While I don’t disagree that she can have her desires and maybe I’m not the best partner for her, I’m curious how I should approach this situation when i want to date someone in the future. Is that not a somewhat weird conversation to have?
