I was reading a few articles about purity culture and came across mentions of a documentary called I Survived I Kissed Dating Goodbye. It’s connected to that book from the 90s, I Kissed Dating Goodbye by Joshua Harris. I knew the title but didn’t know there was a film.
Tried to find it online but couldn't get it anywhere. I did come across an old YouTube link that doesn’t work anymore, but I eventually managed to track down a copy. Thought I’d share it here in case anyone else is looking.
I’m from Finland so this whole thing is a bit outside my world. We don’t have this kind of Christian dating rules or purity stuff in the same way. But I found it pretty interesting to watch. The guy who made the book is the same person who made the film, and it seems like he’s questioning a lot of what he used to teach. It's a strange mix of personal regret and trying to make sense of a whole movement.
If you’re curious about religious trends, purity culture, or just want to see how someone steps away from their old beliefs, it’s worth checking out.

Let me know if the link stops working and I’ll try to upload it again somewhere else.
