I wouldn't even date a man who's a virgin.

As for marry a man who isn't a virgin but will not have sex with me until after the govt says we are unioned, hell to the no. If I don't excite him enough that he can't NOT have sex with me, we are done.

My girlfriend is too. 25 and waiting until marriage. We've been going out for almost 2 months now. I'm not saying she will be my future wife, but I can also say it hasn't been as difficult as I imagined. I'm a guy who use to sleep with any woman that moved so I've surprised myself.

I went to a fairly conservative religious college so I knew (and still know) a number of people who were virgins after age 21. Most waited or are continuing to wait until marriage.
I'd date a guy who made a decision to wait, as long as he's Christian and was waiting until marriage as an exercise of his faith. I wouldn't date the OP. No offense. So you wouldn't like someone until you were married to them?

I would not marry a man before being intimate with him. Sex is high on my list of priorities, and if I ended up with someone who wasn't sexually compatible, the entire relationship would surely suffer.

If you work the tongue real good, you can probably get her to give in.

It's just a bad idea. Sexual compatibility is one of many important factors to consider when choosing a life partner and you can't know if you're compatible until you dive in. Doesn't mean you have to sleep with every chick who comes along, just find someone who satisfies the non-physical aspects of a relationship, then explore the physical, then get married.
A logical way to proceed.

I'm doing this for personal rather than religious reasons.

I've casually hooked-up (no sex) with girls in the past and I've never felt fulfilled being intimate with people I don't really like. So I've decided to remain a virgin until marriage.
One of my friends did. She just got married to her also virginal husband. They are early 30s.

Not everyone will, but I know a few women who are expecting that now in their late 20s.

Never. But generally because 99% of men who would have this rule are religious fanatics. And I have zero interest to be around those types.

He didn't give that option though. That's why I questioned him. He just said, "I've never felt fulfilled being intimate with people I don't really like."

What if he is with a person he really likes (even loves)? Won't he have a better chance of being fulfilled?

Keep to your standards. When you find a woman who can accept this standard from you, at least you'll know you're with someone you can trust.
