Telling him you want to wait?

Question

So I recently started dating this guy (I'm 23 and a virgin). He's been in relationships before but this is my first. For both religious and non-religious reasons, I plan to wait to have sex until I'm married. I'm all for fooling around, but I'm gonna make him wait awhile for that too... Ladies, how do I bring this up to him? Do I just come out and say it? He should respect that, right? I want him to feel fulfilled and satisfied in his relationships and want to give him the option of opting out if this is too chaste for him...

Answer

If he's worth your time and attention, he'll wait. 
I met my now husband at 25yrs old. We waited until our wedding night to have sex.. that was 3yrs later. 
We both had saved that part of ourselves for the one we wanted to spend the rest of our lives with, and when we started dating, we made it clear that neither of us wanted to compromise that. And we didn't compromise, we were both virgins on our wedding night. 
He trusted me to not give it up to him because it's what my hormones wanted and I trusted him to not push himself on me or force me. We spent those years building up a rare quality in this world, trust. 
I have no regrets, we're happily married and grow in our love daily. Sex is worth the wait, spend time building up your relationship without sexual intimacy and you will see all the other qualities flourish.

Answer

Make it know and if he have a problem with it bounce. But put everything on the table just in case he's expecting something

Answer

I made my guy wait a year and a half. I told him from day 1 sex is not a priority to me the relationship is. And If you do ever get it, it will not be on the regular. The one time we did after that year and a half sex with a condom got pregnant and had a miscarriage. We didn't have sex again until a year and a half later. We still went on dates and kissed and cuddled but I didn't want to go there I was terrified it would happen again and he knew that. He's a very patient man. Never pressured me. He masturbates a lot clearly lol. But he knew I was a strong independent zero bs kinda girl from day one. He chased after me for 6 months before I said yes to dating him. If he's not ok with waiting cut your losses now and spare yourself.
