Infidelity seems to be quite common these days. At least it seems so when celebrities get caught in the nasty act by their spouses.
So here's the solution!
ANTI-CHEATING RING « « The Cheeky The Cheeky
This fantastic invention actually imprints "I'm Married" onto the wearer's skin. So that old trick of slipping off the wedding band while out with the gang will work no more!
All of those potential flings are sure to be turned off by the message!
OK, so maybe this gimmick isn't the solution to cheating on your mate. And most people would see this as a great gag gift.
But I see something else in this message. I see an uncomfortable feeling for people that since infidelity or adultery (you're married and you have sex with someone not your spouse) and fornication (you are not married and have sex with someone) is so common, we have a hard time trusting faithfulness.
Who can blame anyone for wanting this little piece of cheap insurance?
We are bombarded every day in advertising, TV programs, merchandise, fashion trends, and plain old peer pressure. Everybody knows peer pressure is not just a teen thing folks!
Most people have heard that old saying, "Awe come on, everybody is doing it!"
There is tremendous pressure on people of all ages to have one night stands, or just fool around to get "that need" met. Those desires have been around since the beginning of time!
Each person has a personal responsibility to decide if they want to commit to Fidelity for themselves. Are YOU worth it? Do YOU honor yourself enough? Do you Trust You enough to have the Faith to commit?
I have been single for a long time. It's been over 10 years since I've been in an intimate relationship. It didn't end well. I ended up feeling empty and unfulfilled.
After that, I decided that I would do things olde school. I have committed to waiting until I am married again before having sex.
I know what I want in my life and that is to meet and marry the man who is just right for me who God has chosen and created for me and me for him.
I want that chance to experience the very special "first time" on my wedding night. I want to experience the waiting, the real commitment to myself and to God's commandments, my commitment to my husband-to-be, the excitement and the anticipation.
This is going to be my last chance to experience that. I know the man God has created for me holds the same values and will be just as committed and eager to wait until marriage.
This is one of the strongest tests I have gone through of commitment and fidelity. I know following this olde school choice, that we will be making a strong impact on our marriage and the trust we have in each other.
So, I ask of you, what do you think about remaining celibate until marriage?
If you are young and a virgin, it's a different kind of choice than for older people who have already had sex. I am in my 40s, been married and divorced twice, have 2 birth children, and have had out-of-marriage sex more than once. (Enough said!)
For people who are not virgins and decide to be celibate until marriage, it gives us a huge task in self discipline. The following is from Can You Stay Celibate Before Marriage.
Remaining celibate until you marry can give you an opportunity to prepare yourself for the commitment of marriage.
The discipline, patience, self-awareness, avoidance of temptation, and focus required to live celibately provides great practice for marriage where all those things are required.
Use your time of celibacy to focus on yourself, learn your true value, explore your dreams, develop your gifts, and find inner peace. If you use your time of celibacy wisely, you can work to become the type of person you wish to marry.
If you've taken a vow of celibacy, know you are not as alone as you may feel you are. Your choice has to be very personal. And it will test you harder than anything else you have committed to in your life.
