[Serious] People who waited until after marriage to have sex; how did your relationship go and how is your relationship now?

I waited as did my wife. Just had our 12 year anniversary. Have two daughters. Relationship is great.

This is going to sound hypocritical.

Sometimes I wish I had not waited simply because it meant I basically didn’t have sex until 25. And I feel like I made too big of a deal in it in my head - was raised Christian, that’s why we both waited - as if it would ruin my marriage. But now looking back, I don’t think it would have ruined it to have sex with my college girlfriend or something, and I sort of regret not having those experiences when I was younger.

The hypocritical part, though, is that I am happy my wife didn’t have sex with her other boyfriends because I wouldn’t really like to think about that.

However, I have wondered if that idea makes me uncomfortable because I didn’t. Like I would feel it was somehow unfair if she got to have sex and I missed out. So at least both of us waited for each other. BUT if I had had sex earlier, then I probably wouldn’t care if she also did, so it’s really more about being at the same place.
