I have been going out with a guy for about 5 months now, I knew him a year before that. So far things have been progressing nicely. He has been treating me well and we get along great and I am attracted to him physically. For personal and religious reasons I am adamant about not engaging in any kind of sexual activity until after I'm married. I have no hangups about sex or aversions to it. That isn't something I want to compromise on. I didn't outright bring that up when we first started dating (I did tell him I didn't feel comfortable with certain physical interactions at that point in time, approximately a month in). He took it well and didn't push the issue.

A few weeks ago I was stressed out about this and wanted to be direct. I did tell him blatantly about my standard. Again, he took it well and stated that he was okay with it and has so far remained respectful of this. Every now and then I can't help but wonder if he is this accepting or if he may be indulging himself elsewhere (he hasn't given me reason to think this though). IDK, part of me thinks I'm just naive and this whole relationship is too good to be true. From some things he's said, he has been physically intimate before so I suppose that matters. I'm feeling a little anxious about this for some reason. If I bring this up, will he think I'm being insecure? I have a lot of insecurities that frankly I try to hide because I don't want to run him off.
