What is the best way to reduce the temptation to fornicate? This is an ongoing struggle with me and my SO. If it’s not him initiating it, its me and vice versa. I don’t want to hinder our progress spiritually by having pre martial sex. I was never taught growing up to value my body, so I guess it’s hard for me to not find that a part of my current relationship “normal”. We both feel guilty afterwards and want to strengthen our relationship with God and with each other in non sexual ways but the temptation is constant.
