HOW S£X RUNNED MY LIFE – woman tell bitter story

One of my greatest regrets is the premarital sex I had on the night of my 25th birthday.

It changed everything.

I became so emotionally and physically attached to this man that I couldn’t stop seeing him—even though I knew deep down he wasn’t good for me.

The bond created through sex made it very difficult to walk away.

Soon guilt began to consume me. I started withdrawing from church activities because I felt ashamed. I could barely concentrate on my work because my mind was constantly occupied with thoughts of him.

Then he proposed—and I said yes.

He wasn’t a bad person, but he was not a dedicated believer. The sad part is that I ignored every warning people gave me. By that time, I was already deeply consumed by the sexual bond we shared.

We eventually got married.

But the reality hit me just three months later.

He drank too much and spent most of his time with friends who loved partying and clubbing. While I wanted to focus on building a family, he wanted to focus on fun and enjoyment.

My husband sometimes calls me to have sex when I want to pray. Even when it’s time to go to church, he wants us to stay home and cuddle or make love.

Now I feel trapped. I am tired of the sex because I feel like I have lost control of my life. I cannot build a godly home, and I am afraid that my children will not be trained in a godly way.

These were the words of a lady who once came to me for counseling.

As I listened to her story, something became very clear to me:

Sex is very sweet. I cannot deny that.
It is pleasurable, exciting, and deeply satisfying.

But let’s be honest—it can also complicate and even destroy things.

I have lost valuable male friendships simply because their sexual desires conflicted with my boundaries. Sometimes a good friendship had to end because someone wanted more than I was willing to give.

Through these experiences, I have learned a hard truth:

Sex can make people hold on to the wrong person, and it can also make them lose the right person.

Relationships that should never have existed are sometimes formed purely because of the pleasure of intimacy.

Sex can keep someone stuck in a toxic relationship long after they should have walked away.

On the other hand, it can also make people reject someone they should have valued—simply because their desires led them elsewhere.

The truth is that sex is one of the beautiful gifts God created for pleasure. But its impact goes far beyond the moment of excitement. It carries deep emotional, spiritual, and psychological consequences.

So it should never be taken lightly.

If you observe carefully, you may notice something:
As sex becomes cheaper, true love and commitment become rarer.

I once asked myself a question:

Was God being too harsh when He commanded us to avoid fornication and adultery?

Why wouldn’t He simply allow us to enjoy sexual pleasure with as many people as we want—just like we enjoy food, travel, or other pleasures in life?

Then it dawned on me.

God was not trying to deprive us of pleasure.
He was protecting us.

Think about it:

• Show me someone who is cheating but still remains completely honest.
• Show me someone who is cheating but still gives their best to their partner.
• Show me someone who is cheating but still serves God wholeheartedly.
• Show me someone who is cheating but still remains truly virtuous and consecrated.

If you can control your sexual desires and say no to temptation, you can develop discipline in every other area of your life.

Samson did not fall because Delilah was cunning.
He fell because he was drowning in his own lust and lack of self-control.

Disobey God at your own risk.

The choice is yours.
