As the years passed I realized I wanted to wait for the right man before becoming physical, I didn't want to share myself with a string of lovers just one man.Recently however I have been told that this was fantastical that I would eventually get bored and want get other people.I struggle with the concept of falling in love, the fear of being hurt all over again when I have opened up emotionally now this opinion is in my mind.Is my decision not possible will I eventually get bored or I am right to follow my belief? I don't know why but I am very worried about this. Reply to this Question Share |

This opinion triggered a deep set fear and weighed heavy on my mind. Although I still do worry a bit both of you're reassurances are a comfort.
Thank you very much, I always felt that I needed trust and security before becoming intimate both emotionally and physically, I don't know why this opinion upset me so much.

Whoever told you such an ostentatious lie should be ignored! They are trying to encourage a sort of indifference to a divine emotion and action such as love in a committed relationship is evil! You were and still are very, very right indeed. Your desire is not fantastical at all. If you love someone, you cannot simply 'get bored' with them, they are not a plaything, they are not a hobby of some sort. You are free to love without fear.
I hope that helps.
