Before I get into what happened last night, let me respond to some of the things that have been said.

She's not some emo kid who gets depressed at the drop of the hat, she's quite the opposite.

You know, you're really starting to tick me off. Quit talking like that about people you don't know and before it gets to late, GTFO.

Thank you for such kind words. I won't get into the details but she made those vows for deeply religious reasons. I also made a similar promise to myself back in high school but before I even left I knew that I would give it up before marriage. It's just simpily a natural course of life.
So, after watching Wedding Crashers and chowing down on some snacks we decided to make out but before that I told her that we needed to talk. I sat her down and naturally she was concerned right off the bat. I explained to her how I felt about what she had said the night beofre and how it made me concerned for the both of us. I told to her how I felt about what she said and that it might become some sort of roadblock for us in the near future. I told her just how much respect I had for her for keeping her promise for so many years and she thanked me for that. I then went into how this is a natural step for lovers and that we both agreed to take this step together as a couple.
After several minutes she thanked me and told me how most other men would not have brought such a subject up in conversation. She agreed that it was natural to have urges and take the next step. She told me that she now felt differently about herself and that she now has more respect for herself becuase she kept her promise for so long. Shortly after that, we began to kiss and together we had a much, much(!) more passionate night than the previous one. We were at it until 1 am, both becoming exhillerated into the throes of passion and we both came multiple times. Her even more so, to the point where our neighbors started to bang on the walls. ^_^
I wish to thank (almost) all of you who offered your advice and wish you all the best of luck in your relationships as well.
Sincerely,
"Pete"
