Real Fix

Credit: SWNS / Rebekah Hurford   A couple are waiting until marriage to kiss – to "honour" each other and create a "deeper connection".   Rebekah Hurford, 31, and her partner, Kirk Peter, 32, decided to wait until they tie the knot to have sex or make out properly.   The pair do share a peck and hug but put boundaries in place to ensure they don’t cross the line and never spend the night together.

00:00We decided not to like make out until marriage.

00:03We still may do a little peck, but we don't make out.

00:11My name is Kirk.

00:12And my name is Rebecca.

00:13I live in New York City, he lives in Connecticut.

00:15We had a video go viral on Instagram about how we're doing our relationship.

00:20We met through church.

00:22You know, I live in Connecticut and our church is in Brooklyn,

00:25in New York, which is about an hour.

00:27One Sunday, I just saw Rebecca in a different way.

00:31And I was just like, not like we hadn't talked before.

00:33I mean, we've done like creative projects and stuff before.

00:35I mean, I just asked her out.

00:37And luckily, she said, yeah.

00:39And now we're here a year, a year later, a year or so later, almost.

00:43We decided not to like make out until marriage.

00:46We still may do a little peck, but we don't make out.

00:50We decided not to like sleep together, obviously, until marriage.

00:53And then he lives, right now he lives an hour and a half away.

00:56Yeah.

00:57He needs to drive from into the city.

01:00And he like, he doesn't sleep over.

01:02He goes back.

01:02I told Rebecca early on, like, I really want this to work out.

01:05So I want to honor you in the way that we do this relationship.

01:09And I don't want to like, I don't want you to think that I'm like, just after your body.

01:14I actually told her, I was like, look, I don't even want to kiss you until we get married.

01:18We were just like, yeah, like, actually, we can hold some boundaries and respect

01:22and honor each other in that way.

01:24It's definitely hard, but hard things are worth it.

01:27Like, there's just a deeper trust that we have for each other.

01:30And actually, too, the cool thing is, too, a lot of people see that and they're like,

01:33man, I really want, like, I want that.

01:35I think on the other hand, though, it's also maybe like pushing us to like get married

01:39quicker, which is something we both want to accomplish.

01:41We've been talking about this.

01:42I'm excited.

01:43Don't get me wrong.

01:45I am excited, which is like she said before,

01:48helping us kind of push through to get to get to that point, to get where we're married.

01:53And we're pretty sure of each other.

01:55And I'm excited.

01:56I'm definitely excited when he doesn't have to drive.

01:59Oh, my gosh.

02:00Yes.

02:01We don't have to commute anymore.

02:03And yeah, we can live our lives together.

02:18Yeah.
