One reason is that those who play around with sex before marriage tend to do the same thing after marriage. They are never satisfied, always looking for a new thrill. Sometimes couples engage in sex before marriage, then get married and seemingly get along well. But they have sown seeds of doubt and distrust which will bear bitter fruit later on. A couple who had been married 20 years was counseling with Dr. Henry Brandy, trying to keep their marriage from falling apart. The husband said, My wife doesnt trust me. The wife shot back, You dont trust me either. Why had they never trusted each other? Because they had sex before they were married. It resulted in 20 years of suspicion and distrust and finally wrecked their marriage.
