You may think that the nicer a guy is, the less likely he would be to accept you with your “baggage.” Actually, the opposite is true. The better a man is, the more likely he is to love you unconditionally. When a “good guy” accepts a girl who has a bad past, it is an expression of his love for her.
The truth is, we all have made mistakes. Even good guys have their imperfections. Suppose, though, that you met a young man who had a less-than-perfect past. Would you refuse to accept him? If you would accept such a man, then why would a good guy refuse to accept you? Besides, if he holds your past against you, is he really that good a guy?
Keep hope alive, and may the following words from a husband to his wife (who had slept with another man before marriage) be a comfort for you: “I was always held to a higher standard by you than by any other girl I ever dated. You were strong, uncompromised, and pure. That’s all I know of you. That’s all that matters to me.”[1]
Do not be afraid that you will not find a good guy or that you will not have a successful marriage. The absence of virginity does not doom marriages, but the absence of the virtue of chastity does. No matter what's happened in the past, you can always regain your virtue.
