I am a single woman and a new convert. After having ended a live-in relationship, I am now following the Church's teaching against pre-marital sex. But I find myself feeling a little cheated. It seems like single people enjoy sex more than married people do-- or at least enjoy it more often. I worry that sex in marriage will be disappointing.
Is it okay to really enjoy sex? After all, isn't sex really about making babies? We waited to have sex until we got married, even though it was hard to do that. But now that we are married, I feel guilty when we are intimate.
