To this, I countered with TWO things:

1. This "gift" is usually of more value to the "GIVER" than to the "GIFTED".


2. In a relationship that is serious (this one was becoming that) a couple should be compatible in ALL. respects, and to me personally, SEX is not the LEAST important of these.



She remain unmoved.


Soon thereafter, I called it quits and moved on.


I wish her good luck; <----- with THAT zeitgeist, she will really need it.
What the heck is 'the rock'? God? An engagement ring? The wrestler Dwayne Johnson? All 3?

I think that virginity is only as important as you make it. If it's a big deal to you that you're a virgin (or that your partner is a virgin)...then it's going to be a big deal in the relationship.

That goes for a lot of things...

Some guy in another thread claimed taking a virgin was the holy grail for some young men. So the reasons for that were the whole impetus behind starting the thread froggy. ;p~
I mentioned that in the other thread as a follow-up to some other posts. Some young men just like scoring virgins, this isn't a new development. Just ask the woman that auctioned off her virginity for a million dollars but received a bid for over 3 million. Crazy I know.

review for context

Scene from "The Virginator.":

"I'll be back..."

Of course, we know he's lying.

...

Never bothered me. My first was her first. My second was her first. In between those two, I dated a girl who was a virgin, and she wanted to lose it with me, but I didn't feel it was the right time.

Before I got married, I attached a pretty high value to the act of sex. I'd only been with five women, I think (?), and they were all long-term, or at least had some emotional attachment, and I married one of them.

After you're about 30, though, it's a moot question. Only the rarest of rares is still a virgin, and the emotional attachment to sex is not as profound.

You become attached for reasons having nothing at all to do with sex.
