I've been in a relationship with my gf for over 1 year. I love her a lot and she loves me too. We both are virgin but I don't want it to continue for the rest of life. She follows Brahmakumaris wholeheartedly and is extremely reluctant to have sexual intercourse even after marriage. Because Brahmakumaris teaches to follow Purity by staying away from such activities.

I don't strongly believe in religion or spirituality although I respect them. I used to think her purity is only applied until she got married. But recently I learned, she wants to follow it for the rest of her life.

I believe Intercourse is a vital part of married life but she is against it and believes physical intimacy only brings short term pleasure hence we should avoid it.

I want to marry her but the issue is "will no intercourse in marriage have a severe impact on our relationship?"

Is it possible a marriage can run smoothly without Intercourse?

I asked my close friends about this, they are saying leave the girl and move on. But It is extremely difficult for me to do so.

I wanted to have a female's perspective on this issues. Your advice are truly appreciated.

P.S- She is ready to get involved sexually only for the purpose of 1 child and nothing else.
