Waiting
Ok, so I've always wanted to wait for marriage for many reasons. Mainly because I don't want to start a marriage with someone before we're actually married, if that makes sense. Like most married couples have been together for about 7 years before they actually get married, and then when they do get married because they've been together for so long it doesn't really change anything. And their marriages tend to be less successful, because (just my opinion) they have had nothing to look forward to other than being tied to a person, which by itself sounds very daunting.
No, I want to know someone well, I'd even marry a (guy) best friend, and then after we marry we can really start more of a relationship. I feel like saving myself for marriage plays a big part in that.
But to be honest, I'm worried no one would marry me without having sex first. I don't want to marry just anybody first of all, I want to really get along with the person as well as feel attracted to them. I don't really know what to do, whether I should stick to my morals and principles or go with the flow and have sex.
I know the answer sounds obvious, but I suppose what I'm asking is does anyone think that a guy would marry me without having sex?

Yes
Yes, there are guys who would wait, and prefer a woman who waits.
Once you have sex outside of marriage it often changes your opinions and views. One theory has it that people change their opinions to be consistent with their behavior, not vice versa.
So, people who wait for marriage are very special people and there are many guys who want to share that experience for the first time within a formal committed relationship.

Sighs...
Don't go with the flow! Sheep to the slaughter I always say... I'm a 26 year old male virgin still struggling to find that special someone... Its a hard road and as a male I can honestly admit its not a friendly one. I've been called everything in the book by others, yes it hurts and yes I've thought about lowering my standards on what I want from a relationship, but stooping to the standards of today's society where promiscuity and divorce plagues families seems wrong to me. Stay true to your values/virtues and you will eventually find that someone.
And if someone bases marrying you on the fact that you have not had sex... Then I would say they are not worthy of being with you!
