I’m a 31 year old Christian man of God. I’ve had about 5 serious relationships in the past and all have ended because of trust and sexual issues. I have even had to break an engagement because my ex finance cheated on me and lied about her sexual experience several times. I’m choosing to abstain from sex before marriage because it is God’s commandment to me. God’s way works, people who are fine with sex before marriage must deal with things that can be avoided. My body and sexual commitment is a gift for my wife and vice versa. No one said this is easy.

Actually, a large scale survey was done on this.

95% of americans have had premarital sex. And, given that only 97% have had sex at all (a few percent of us are asexual and have no interest or ability), that means that 98% of people who have the capability and partner, have had premarital sex.

there is no correlation between religion and rates of premarital sex. i.e. just as prevalent amongst evangelical christians, atheists, protestants, etc. The only difference appears to be how guilty they feel about the act.

a better question would be:

"how many of those marriages ended in divorce, the parties engaged in extramarital affairs or just claim to be plain unhappy?"

my guesstimate for that based upon common sense would be close to 100% but not 100%.
