Patience for the Right Relationship
There is less worry and stress on jumping into a relationship before you are ready. You take the time to get know and love yourself, and your boundaries. When the right person or relationship comes your way, you can get to know them without any pressure.
Inner Confidence and Peace
Abstinence is more than just a halt on sex, but an emotional and spiritual journey. You can gain peace of mind, joy, and a confidence you may not have had before.
