Hey this website is so interesting. thanks for having it up. i was thinking about marriage and all the responsibilities, including raising children. its really tough. im also an only child who really appreciates and loves her parents because they really have done a lot for me. no other parent would do wut they have done for me. i think that remaining a celibate and not even getting married is a great idea, for me, because it can be a way for me to thank my parents for what they have done. i can work, and have them live with me. this way, i have the satisfaction of knowing that im doing something to show them i care, and i wouldnt have to deal with the annoying in laws and raising children. and im sure that almost NO man out there would marry and not have children, even if he did have sex wit his wife. he would most likely want kids.

Artificial insemination, in vitro fertilisation, they are working on an artificial womb but are far from perfecting it.
I happened upon your sight by accident when I was trying to find info on the net about virginity in today's society. When I found your sight I was greatly surprised and relieved. I am not a religous fanatic, frigid unattractive or have been sexually abused (as so many articles might have me believe). I do have my urges and if I find the right time/person I might change my virgin status. However, I do not put the kind of importance on sex that my peers do. Perhaps it is the fear of accidental pregancy, sexually transmitted diseases or fear of rejection that has some influence with all of those concerns being valid. I simply do not believe that sex is something that you have to do no matter the influence. There are more important things to gain in life for me than that and I have not had any "problems" emotionally or physically because of my focus elsewhere such as emotional connection as oppossed to a physical connection with someone. I am also not in judgment of anyone who is sexually active it is simply not a high priority for me. I am pleased to find out there are others out there similar to myself as being celibate is also sometimes a lonely existence when so many others try to make you feel like a freak and are not accepting of your choice (whether it stems from resentment, fear or simply being uncomfortable with someone different from them). Anyway, those of you who CHOOSE to abstain please know that you are not freaks and in fact reap rewards that others do not. Perhaps I am a bit of an anomaly at my age nonetheless this has been my choice and you have my support. God Bless, Yvette

You people are foolish. Most of you will have sex before you die so just face it. Sex is not just some man-made concept that intends to harm you. It's natural. It is a basic biological need just like food and water. It is also described in the bible. You are all a product of sex believe it or not. Therefore, the whole foundation on which this lifestyle is built, is completely foolish. Even animals have sex. Cells in your body have sex (mitosis) and reproduce. There are studies that prove that those who are deprived of sexual gratification end up severely depressed. Sex (and God of course) is the only reason you idiots are even here supporting this nonsense. And disease shouldn't be a valid deterrant from sex because EVERYBODY doesn't die from it. Most of the 5 or 6 billion people in the world will not die from sex. People die from driving in cars, planes, food poisioning. Are you going to abstain from driving, flying, or even eating just because it can be risky? Besides, death is the end result of life and NOBODY will escape it. Abstaining from sex for your whole entire life WILL NOT spare you from death! It doesn't garauntee a longer life either! You can die from walking down the street. Maybe I should start a website dontwalkdownthestreet.com Before you walk down the street, look both ways before you cross. That's the key to having safe sex: Be cautious and prepare yourself. Educate yourself about the risks involved and do with the information what yo will...

I am a virgin and proud of it. I know that my family (siblings)make fun of me all the time about not being married. But I am believing God for his BEST. i have a lot of wonderful things in my life: I have my own business, I am have 2 masters degrees and MOST importantly I believe in Jesus who has been my help and my all in all. Sure . . . I have met men that I thought were "the one" but unfortunately they were not. I was always afraid of being alone . . . But I am not scared . . . I have tremendous faith that I will be a wonderful wife and mother and I could care less what others think of me at this time. I am TRUSTING God fully I know that he has not forgotten! Be blessed and keep staying strong and keep your eyes on Jesus.

Hello ladies and gentlemen! I am writing this note after 2 years . I feel stronger , both physically and mentally. I have a calm mind and I enjoy complete bliss. All this by only one virtue - Celibacy dont argue, dont debate, just follow it as an experiment and write the results.(as far as the procreation is concerned, you have nothing to worry about earth's population. in no case , whole human beings are going to remain virgin. so try hard to practise celibacy and get the first ladder to climb the heights of spiritualism) thnaks. May God bless all

Thank you so much for this site. Right now I am going through a tough period, due to medical reasons and mental reasons I have decided to become celibate. Because of sex, I lost my best friend whom I had sex with once. He deemed me dirty and never spoke to me again, this opened my eyes. Now, I have decided to give it up forever and that I will grow to be a pure person. However, I truly want to be in a meaningful, loving, celibate relationship with a husband, I only hope I can find someone with the same views as me.

I was going to put a link to your web site until I read the stupid appendix. It's obvious you're angry and bitter that you can't be a part of Ambrosian, isn't that right. You aren't saying anything new that hasn't been heard before anyway. And no one here is interested in your old man ideas, old man.
I have been married now for 20 years, and sex is not the same as it was when I first got married. I believe celibacy is a gift from God, and if you have it you will be happy. I like the website that you have designed, and it has some helpful information. May God bless you richly my beloved.

This site is encouraging, you see I have never had sex and for myself only want one sexual partner in life [if infact I actually find the right guy]the guy I am dating of one month wants to have sex and I have told him that I'm not ready, however I haven't told him that I don't think I will be ready until marrage. When I told him I have not had sex he was like your missing out and we will make great lovers, I dont want to spend the rest of my life alone, however do not want the pressure, I try keeping myself busy, but their is pressure, maybe to please, maybe to keep him from going, I am not in love though think that maybe I will fall in love, though if I stay will the pressure for sex remain, I think so, in all honesty I would like to find someone who has never had sex before, or maybe just friends that I can enjoy my life with, finding these are hard and I feel alone, I wish there is a group like me that meets, anyway this site helps, Thankyou.

After having grown up in a world where I've seen women being used and thrown away, I decided to remain a virgin until I found real love. Well, at 28 I thought I found it - him. I was wrong. I had sex with him, and then he dumped me. Never, and I mean never, will I do it again. I'd rather live a lifetime of celibacy than mate without love - and I don't believe that the majority of men are capable of real love. The human race needs to evolve past its purely instinctual desires to mate. And love, real love, should take first place to everything else. That won't be achieved until people stop mating.

Came across your site.. I can't imagine what would lead others to have sex with someone they do not love, and hence would not marry. I am 30 years old and I have never had sex. I am a Christian man and believe strongly that sex is sacred because it is designed to produce human life. To others out there who may be insecure about abstinence: do NOT be swayed by the views of a world that has lost its way, and chosen corruption over Godliness.

This is a great site! I am a virgin and intend on being so for the rest of my life. I think sex has no relation to love (and vice-versa) but most of all it bothers me how society is telling people that they have to have sex and be obsessed with sex. It seems really unnatural that people are so addicted to it. There's nothing great about it...what is there to obsess over? It seems more like a drug addiction to me. I don't think artificial insemination would (or should) be used commonly, but I think sex should be used for its intended purpose (and only that) in this case. Supposedly the "uncivilized" cultures are also more chaste, and they are living more naturally. To people who are saying the human race won't continue without sex, remember that most people are terminating the conception in some way. Living like this is not natural at all and it literally will lead to downfall! I'm not religious, but I think it's great that I'm not the only one who has morals. These days, it really is the people who willingly remain virgins that are the strongest, because they are not giving into all of the brainwashing.

Nothing wrong with it, give it a try and discover for yourself.
I am having the worst time trying to find others like me. I chose to be celibate. I believe that my life is more fulfilled this way. There are so many reasons and I don't plan on changing my way of thinking, however I don't want that to mean that I will be alone for the rest of my life. I know I don't NEED to be with someone, but I am a giving person and I'd like to share my life with someone. Naturally I can't even find someone who UNDERSTANDS why I chose to live my life this way, never mind someone who actually wants to live life without sex. Please help me! How do I meet other people like me? All I see are celibates for religion, and celibates (meaning people who just haven't had much sex and want more)..UGH!

I discovered this site accidentally and I'm really glad I did. Although I am not a Christian and I don't belong to any particular religion I do advocate abstinence and celibacy as I believe that more important that anything is to have respect for yourself and respect for others. It makes me sad to see how many people my age are ruining their lives by having sex and having to deal with the emotional and physical repercussions. Sex is the cause of so many of societies ills, I know several people who have ended up pregnant and ruined their education and their lives as well as losing all self respect. I admire anyone who is not afraid to stand up for what they believe in even if they must do so alone.

This world thinks it is at its pentacle of understanding. We have created the scientific method and raised the man of science, the researcher and the doctor in their white coats, to the level of demigods. We hear doctors tell us that sex is natural and harmless as long as we take precautions to avoid contracting STDs. They speak with such authority and certainty that all but a few question their assumptions and assertions about sex. But, there are higher laws at work in this world, laws which science has not yet begun to comprehend. There is an anima that give life to this physical existence we experience as our reality. Scientist can't find this anima because it's not in a test tube or a beaker. It's in each and every living being. It can be found in the feeling; the feeling of life and awareness and vitality.
When we have sex or masturbate we spill that vital force that gives life. Sex is a vehicle through which we are to procreate. Sex is the giving of a piece of our life so that life can be brought into the world. I see nothing wrong with wanting to bring life into the world, but spilling one's vitality for pleasure is a insult to that living force that gives all life. People have always had sex and masturbated in the dark and in private places because it is shameful to have such a disrespect for life. Psychologist assert that we associate shame with sex because we are taught that it is dirty. But I believe everyone instinctively feels shame after an orgasm because they can feel the life giving spirit go out from them. This knowledge of how we disgraced and wasted this spirit speaks to our hearts and this is the source of shame. But when the libido is sublimated the strong feelings what would otherwise be released through sex fuel the higher faculties. All alchemy (personal transformation based on the higher laws of the universe) starts with celibacy. By retaining the libido this sexual force then fuels the higher faculties and builds strength, determination and character and imparts reason and understanding to the mind which it fuels.
Personally, I don t hold to the fundamental beliefs of any religion. I believe the prophets and founders of religions were trying to teach us how to live better lives. This is why celibacy and chastity has been central to the teachings of the truly great light-givers. In our ignorance we have turned the teachings of these avatars, teachings which were usually hidden deep in metaphor/parable/symbolism, into dogma which is to be obeyed. But good teacher's don t want obedience; they want understanding. I know that very few married Christians have sex only with the intent to procreate and refrain at all other times. I know that even fewer Christians are completely celibate. But this doesn t mean that Christ wasn t teaching celibacy. Christ taught first and foremost by example and he and eleven of his disciples were celibate. Only Judas was unclean. Christ urges all to become celibate in Matthew 19:12.
I don t want to be misunderstood here. I believe the teachings of Christ are profound but I don t believe they can be taken literally. Christ used so much symbolism and metaphor because he was trying to teach us about the side of life that is hidden from us and is inside us.
I mentioned the anima earlier, but there are many hidden forces that make up our existence and they are in us and sustain us but they are hidden because they are in the feelings we feel and the thoughts we think. In fact they are those very things. All life runs on feelings. Just as the fish doesn t realize it s in the water because the water moves freely through it and it moves freely through the water and has no need of the air above. In the same way we don t realize the spirit because the spirit moves through us and we move through the spirit. In fact the spirit is what moves all that is alive from the largest mammal to the smallest cellular structure. The spirit is the feelings. All life is fueled by feelings. The more alive you are the more strongly you feel.
This can be a hard thing in a world with so much suffering. This is the courage of being celibate. It fills you with life and the life is feeling and feeling can be a real burden, but it s a burden we carry out of respect for life and love of the life that is in all things. Indulging in sex can bring the momentary pleasure of being numb to the pain of this world, but it can never bring meaning or purpose because these come from being filled with feeling and life and finding the courage to face the world naked and unashamed as a little child. May we continue to be children or work to become children again if we have lost that innocence, children filled with life and a love of life in all things, full of feeling and courage and standing unashamed in this world as a living example to the transformative power of living a disciplined and dignified life of celibacy.

Well guess what, I am a 30 year old VIRGIN and proud of it thanks to the one and only Almighty Yahweh! No, I am not gay or have a sexual dysfunction. I may never loose my virginity, but those who have victory over the flesh in the name of Jesus Christ, (i.e. keeping onself a virgin) a divine, great reward in Heaven shall be given! But, most people have failed miserably in abstaining from sex and the fact that there is continuous wonton murder of babies, fornication, divorces, adultry, cheatings, etc. doesn't help the matter one damn bit, HELLO (U.S.A. with sins reaching Heaven ....sounds like mystery babylon, WATCH OUT)! Folks we are ultimately in a battle of good vs. evil. It is people's Spirit that is really paramount, but don't think for a damn second that fleshy, carnate sins don't effect the Spirit world and vice versa ....THEY DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "For the flesh luseth against the spirit: and the spirit against the flesh: For these are contrary one to another: so that you do not the things that you would." Galatians 5:17 +++++++++++++ By golly I do love thy neighbor, but NO way in hell am I going to subject myself to someone who has fornicated! How foolish a virgin to give in to a non-virgin ...BALENCE please! This world needs a few more virgins to make satan so jealous that he'll run screaming back into the center of the earth; the center of the earth perhaps being hell! So keeping your virginity is more IMPORTANT then any stupid church or liberal Christian would tell ya! Don't give in no matter how depressing and lonely life can get because Yahweh is with you and you will recieve a great reward! +++++++++++++ "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to Yahweh. And the peace of Yahweh, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-8 Our carnate bodies are very important to Yahweh and we shouldn't pervert ourselves or others: "Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? 1 Corinthians 6:19

VIRGINITY TEACHES YOU DIGNITY, SELF MASTERY AND SELF RESPECT.
WE ARE ALL CAPABLE OF TAPPING INTO THE STRENGTH THAT LIES WITHIN US, OF RISING ABOVE WHAT IS MEDIOCRE.
REGARDLESS OF OUTSIDE INFLUENCE, AND SEXUAL MANIPULATION AND PROVOCATION.
BE PROUD OF LEADING A CELIBACY LIFE, IT IS ONE ATTRIBUTE OF LEADING A PURE HEALTHY, LIFESTYLE.

Hello to you all I am glad that I am not the only old virgin in this world at the age of 39, the reason for me still being one is that I dont have a desire for sex, I used to kiss girls in my early days but that is far as it goes! but my bigest regret is not giving my Father a grandchild from me(the eldest of the family)

This website discusses Brahmacharya. That's different from Ambrosian in that masturbation is forbidden where it isn't with Ambrosian, it's a choice.
Hey! Ambrosian, I'd like to know what scientific evidence you have to support that you are actually healthier from abstaining from sex as opposed to NOT abstaining from it. I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion but it is facts and figures which will win me over not appraisals from other people and the opinions of philosophers such as Ambrose.

A better question would be: What scientific evidence do you have to support that you are actually healthier from living the Ambrosian lifestyle? Indisputable evidence, but don't take anyone elses word for it, prove it to yourself.
That's it? Whoa! I don't think three studies done on BUGS means a hell of a lot. There are GOOD reasons out there for chastity. Some people are called to lifelong celibacy. Too many people blindly follow their libido - with disastrous consequences. But this site just doesn't have anything that would convince anyone to remain a virgin forever. Can't you come up with something a little better than this? I know I could!!
I would like to state that I am in a perfession of the health field and i have chosen not to have sex. Not for health resons or for science, but just because i am looking for inner self fullfillment. All my life I have done what everyone else wanted me to. Get married, have a baby go to college. Now I have done all that and i still did not feel satisfied. I have felt more open with my mind,spirt and body now then ever before since I have chosen this life style. I am so glad that there are others like me.

Finding your website was providential, and reading everything there was very affirming! I have remained unmarried to this day, and have been practicing celibacy for several years now. I said finding your website was providential because it's a relief to know (finally!) that there are others who share my view and lifestyle. I live in a marriage-oriented society who makes celibate people like me feel as though we belong to another planet. Even my church, whose founder remained unmarried in all of His 33 years of stay on earth (Jesus) and one of the leading apostles was a professed celibate (St. Paul of course), is seemingly "single-phobic." Your strong endorsement for a healthy lifestyle exites me even more. I have been a vegetarian for two years now, although of the lacto-vegie type. Yes, I am now convinced that I should also get rid of milk in my diet. If Ambrosian! is a group, please let me know how I can join. You can also serve as a support group that can constantly motivate me to go on and stay on my chosen path. I would also like to encourage others. I'd be glad to communicate with those who also adhere (or at least have decided to adhere) to the Ambrosian ! way.

Some of you are getting the wrong idea. This site is not about abstaining from sex until marriage, it's about life long celibacy, or the total abstinance from sex, even in marriage.

SO glad I found this site and seen that I`m not alone to feel like sex isn´t the most important thing in our lives.Also I totally agree with bob 18, when I marry I will consider sex IF I feel comfortable with it but really whats the point before? I´m not ashamed to still be a virgin,I´m not ugly or a nutty person, I´m confident in my own skin and that actually makes it easier to stand up for the fact that I don´t need sex to have a great life.

Not everything revolves around sex...
It's so comforting to know that there are people of my age that feel this way. I'm a virgin and it is really hard to feel accepted even by my closest friends when I am not part of the college norm. I think people usually associate world experience with sexual experiences, and think that virgins are naive about how the world works.

According to Nature, there is a time for Sex and a time to abstain from sex,in nature the majority of mammals mate 2 months out of the year,I have been celibate for the past 3.5 years i also practice pranayama and meditation, I don't agree with you on the whole virginity from birth thing. Its good if a person stayed celibate until his or her 26th birthday, and if he or she wants to have children in the (in the confines of a saintifyed marriage ofcourse there is nothing wrong with that. and as long as they have sex accourding to nature its alright

I am a virgin. I thought this was a very rare thing at my age until I found the site. It's nice to know there are others like me and that this way of life is a positive way to live. I always knew it is. I live a clean and healthy lifestyle. I never listen to the news. Among all the sadness I am happy. However, the desire for intimacy with a girl is very strong. I don't know if I will continue to be a virgin. I will see.

I have been celibate since liFe, based believing that I can achieve immortality through this process I knew that I am becoming...stronger fitter and with my physilogical senses are heightened. Better than my peers. But I will say the key to this is true you need some discipline on what you eat and what media you watch, and training you do for the body.I did numerous amounts of experiments on this body, in order to find out the truth. And the results were exciting. I will be 30yrs old soon, but boy I can hold my own. Still look good. Have no health problems. People always asking whats the secret. Never tell them. Preserving your virginity makes you a magent to other people. You have an A presence that can be felt, depending on who that is, people feel that energy. My tips are if you are very high in sexual energy do some of these things that helped me: Fast once a week, fasting stops a high drive in sexual energy to come down and makes you realise the importance of food. Stop spending to much time with people that have this sexual energy. Or Do some physical stuff like swimming, sprinting, weights, wrestling. Thats some stuff you could basically do. Peace y'all. Be strong an challenge this fake ass world.

I thought you were on to something really meaningful until you talked about masturbation being an alternative to sex. Do you not know that masturbation is a sin? It is an unnatural act, therefore it is a sin against the flesh and takes us away from the holy spirit which guides us in all things. Like someone else had commented on before, masturbation isolates us as human beings. You contradict yourself when you say that we must resist sexual temptations, but masturbation is doing just the opposite. How can one reach paradise with the sin of the flesh in our hearts? I am 26 and a virgin and I also do not masturbate either. I believe that we must not give into any temptations of the flesh if we are to truly obey God's commands. I do however believe that sex is ok within a marriage. Can you elaborate a little more on your "personal experiences" that have led you to some of your conclusions?

Chastity is very important. It is downright dishonourable to live life and fornicate along the way.
However, once you have found a partner that is willing to stay with you for the rest of his/her life (Homosexuality is only for the people who have been raised without honour and have been taught to accept everything society throws at them) you should procreate to continue your bloodline so your children may bring forth what you have been taught (or taught yourself).
Science is not the answer to a completely natural way of producing off-spring. I can not speak for god, but Adam & Eva did not have science. They lived peacefully until the snake tricked them to eat the apple and we live in the world as we know it now.
Find a partner for life and procreate. making use of science to procreate is completely irrelevant when you are perfectly well capable of doing so yourself.
Science was invented and perfected by people who did not believe in the bible. Let alone believe in chastity!
There is no honour to be found in such hypocriticial ways!
I wish you all good luck on your way to find the truth. I can tell you that the truth does not lie in complete celibacy even when married and bound to one partner for life.
Bon Voyage..

I am so glad I found this site. I'm am 19 and it is been so hard to maintain my virgin status. This site gave me a sense of hope and the will power to remain a virgin. Im a attractive person and most of the dudes I meet just want to have sex. When i refuse to have sex with them they up and leave me. Atleast it shows me where their head is truly at. It has been hard for me to strongly say that Im a 19 y/o virgin, but now i know that I'm not alone out there. My goal is to remain a virgin until I marry, and yes I know its going to be hard, but I know that there are others out there like me so i can and will make it through this. So to all the other virgins out there lets help each other out by keeping our goals and beliefs in sight.

Hi,I'm a 24 year old virgin,I'm female and a Christian,My faith is very important to me,some of the Ambrosian view is pretty cool maybe even true,but I am not against sex,I do not believe that all people are called to a life of perpetual celibacy,some by God's grace(and only by God's grace)are able to carry this out,I think the Bible makes this clear,I think Marriage if done The Lord's way is honorable and loving and great and the sex to go with it(but it requires hard work and give and take attitude real love,understanding,harmony and commitment)I do not believe you will find real Love and a good marriage if your relationships start out with an intense,burning out of control Lust!(as it seems most relationships do)that is the path of total destruction,death,problems and heartbreak and if it leads to a marriage it will end in divorce.I might be a virgin but I'm not stupid,neither am I unnattractive,I could have had sex and still could if I wanted to anyday,but I care about my body,my soul,my psyche,my emotions.I'm not one of those people that doesn't care about sex or has no desire for it,quite the contrary,it's a real struggle with the flesh,will and self on a daily basis,sometimes it can get to be pretty painful especially in this oversexed society!For me there's alot of pain,sadness and loneliness to go with the virginity,it's sacrifice,work,tears,a sense of isolation because nobody around you is like this or shares in this experience,I don't tell people this and I wouldn't advice other virgins to tell anybody but the people that they really trust about there virginity,because if you are careless about this you'll be seen as vulnerable and people will be mean and rude about it to you and possibly other problems and ridicule.On the other hand I really believe it's still the right thing to do,you avoid alot of the problems and evils of this world this way,you can grow in your Love for God more(because it's not spend on somebody else)and the part about youth I can testify to that because I really do look way younger then my age and my age counterparts(people think I'm 15-16)must be because of my abstinant life style!I noticed that about alot of celibate spiritual people of different religions they all look younger,youthful and more radiant!I'm not saying I will be a virgin forever,because I wouldn't mind being married to a man that loves the Lord and having a family life and somebody to love and share my life with,but on the other hand maybe I will be ,it's all up to God and his plans for me.

I have been celibate since age 37. I stayed a virgin until age 25. I married twice and had one daughter. Truthfully, I never liked sex, so it was and is easy for me.
I try to use my excess energy to help others in many ways.
I never worry about deadly diseases or if my husband (deceased) is cheating.
Celibacy is something you may decide and it can be forever or in spourts, but it is good to know both sides.
I will never have sex again, but I do miss themale friendships. I would love to meet many celibate males. The men around me all want sex, so I am polite with them, but they are no fun.
Males are free to e-mail me.
Iam not gay, so women please do not e-mail me. Lesbians try to entice celibate females and I have no intrest in sex and especially with a woman. I would have sex with men only, if I was going to have sex.

Here are some tips for remaining celibate:1.Moderation in food; 2.Veg diet consisting of fruits, dry fruits, vegetables, nuts and milk; 3. Aviod viewing TV and cinema showing lewd scenes; 4. Keep mind and body in healthy pursuits; 5. Pray for enlightenment and strength to withstand the call of lustful desires.

I am proud to say that at 31, I am still a virgin, though most of my friends have married and urge me to do the same, I am still enjoying my bachelorhood. Sometimes, my friends say that I don't know what I am missing, and urge me to find a girlfriend and enjoy sex, but I somehow feel that sex is very pure and divine and should only be done with spouse after marriage. The problem is that many Indian boys and girls have started having premarital sex, and so I am finding it very difficult to find suitable virgin girls to marry. I hope that Indian boys and girls will keep up our noble traditions and refrain form sex till after marriage.

Isn't it kinda that there are just positive comments in this Guestbook?
Everyone can have his own opinion on abstinence, but you should let the other site be heard, too...

WOW! It was great to come across a web site like this. I'm not into religion, but I do believe that being celibate is wonderful. I was almost starting to believe that I was the only celibate person in the world. I made up my mind six years ago to live a celibate life. I'm so glad that I made that choice. I feel 100% better about myself now, and it's good to know that I'm not alone. Sex is ... and always will be OVERRATED. Live your life. Be healthy and stay happy. There is SO much more to life than sex.

Chastity is well and good, but human beings were created by God for love and companionship. Family is one of the most important things we have, and without sex, there can be no family.
I think virginity is a precious thing, and ought not be given lightly. However, I think that giving it out of love is beautiful and holy. I would not deny my love that. It is the most precious thing I have to give him.
I believe, ideally, people ought to be either vigins or chaste and faithful spouses, but love and fidelity are no less a thing than virginity and ought not be discounted.

Thank you for this site - There is very little even on the internet that affirms celibacy as a valid way of life. I'm a virgin and intend to remain so because I'm Buddhist and believe that all sensual desire (sex being a big one) leads to craving, and therefore suffering. I've lived 17 years without sex; that tells me I can get by without it. Why embrace the emotional taxation of something I don't even need, and that will make me suffer? So thanks, for letting me know I am not alone in my feelings.

Sorry to be critical. Your idea that mastrubation is O.K is absurd. It devalues the whole principle of celibacy. The WHOLEEEE, I emphasize.. WHOLE concept behind celibacy is to SAVE semen. Just because, Sir or Ma'am. you mastrubate, doesn't mean it is OK. Saving SEMEN has wonderous effects on body. That is the whole concept of Brahmachari. I started out so much respect with for your website. But I won't visit it again. And let me see this to your visitors. again. WHOLEE concept behind celibacy is self-restraint = control over one's mind, which comes from saving SEMEN.Goodluck on your false preachings.

It seems that the Ambrosian! lifestyle is for those who have never had sex and choose never to have it for the rest of their lives. But what about those of us who have had sex, realize that it's what it's cracked up to be, and want to live a celibate lifestyle for the rest of our lives? Is there a term to describe this and a website to support us that is similar to Ambrosia? Thanks for any information you can provide.

Hi, I have been wanting to look up a website like this, and I'm glad and relieved to have come across this one; now to find an Ambrosian singles link. kidding. I'm 24 year old attractive looking hispanic male living in Houston Tx. For me its not hard at all being celibate. I cannot see myself having sex with someone I barely know or love. Only when I know its true love and someone who is willing to spend our lives together will I consider giving myself to him. I exercise everyday, I eat well, and I do have a fun social life. I am lonely though, I need someone who feels the same way that I do about sex. All my relations have suddenly ended for this one reason. I love to kiss, and caress, and all that good stuff, but I never go below the waiste. Thats never enough for the other person, so they end the relationship. It sucks, boy does it suck. Guess what, it doesn't matter. I still do truly believe that someday I will meet that one special person whom I can lay in bed with and not have to worry about having S E X. yet.

Interesting philosophy--mostly because it's so nutty. The interpretation from Genesis is dubious to say the least. If people feel it's right for them, they should maintain their virginity, but don't make it your place to convert them.

God said "Be fruitful and multiply," BEFORE He said not to eat of the Tree of Knowlege of Good and Evil. So how could they multiply without having sex?
There is a middle road between celibacy and promiscuity. It's marriage. For those who choose celibacy - that's a fine choice. But it is not the only choice sanctioned by holy scriptures of various religions. Obviously if there was no sex, there would be no people to be celibate.

Been celibate for five years. never married.Do I qualify as a celibate? AIDS is the main reason I am celibate. I don't want to get that disease.

Though i would like to give everyone out there large kudos for staying virgins I don't appreciate that you are bad mouthing sexually active people. It's like you are against everything they stand for, maybe they made some mistakes but so have you. Just becsaue they are sexually active dosen't mean that they are little sluts that run around having sex with everyone. Sometimes having sex can be very spiritually fulfilling. So all in all don't diss it til you've tried it. Sometimes things can be amazing and people indulge themselves in it and some people like to keep that amazing thing completely sacred but both ways respect each other and don't sit there and say one or the other is stupid. Neither sides have tried it, so don't judge it.

Man is born of vile coitus and comes into the light as a result of the spewing forth of senseless semen, a product of obscene gropings and beastly instincts.
There are three special points of resemblance to Christ: the victory over the flesh in Virginity, the victory over the world in Martyrdom, and the victory over the devil in the preaching of the Truth.
Virginity truly is the virtue of the Saints. Once we lose it, there is no coming back. Christ is Perfection, the Alpha and the Omega, and He was a Virgin.
God bless you all.
