    I lost my wife a few years ago, but she left me with the gift of 2 very wonderful kids. I owe it to myself, to her, and to them to stay healthy and strong. Part of that is not getting a disease by sleeping around. SO until I mary again I am not going to give in. Though after the rodeo there are usually seveal interested rodeo hags.

    props!

    Serious props! Also side note... thats why there is condoms...just saying. But you make a very good point.

    i know for myself as a new single father that is a big part of my increased level of standrds. ive got two kids that are my main priority and i dont want to hook up with someone that i couldnt see being a part of their lives. not sure i will wait till marriage again but i feel you and have a ton of respect for you

    Yeah i was wild and crazy before settling down with my husband, and we now have a daughter. I know that if ever (heaven forbid) something happen to us, that things would be very different when taking into consideration that im a parent now. Plus you im sure time to get out and meet people is decreased by ten fold.

    No dry spells here, I'm always wet.

    Lol!

    I have serious STD-phobia. That's probably why I've only slept with 3 people ever.

    I've slept with well over 3 people, used a condom with everyone of them (no gift giving, if its not wrapped up :wink: ). Never had an STD in my life.

    So true!!! So true!!! LOL

    Ha Ha Ha. That's funny. Yeah, If you need some relief, I agree, just go with the vibrator :) They won't cause you to feel disgusting and regretful. Plus, you can't possibly have any "scares". Haha.

    Until I said "I do", I didn't.. Now I only do with the one I said "I do" to... Makes life much less complicated that way... No wild oats, no responsibilities I don't know about. :-)

    I do have standards, just seems every guy I date I lower the bar :laugh:

    However, because I am a single parent, I don't sleep around so even as low as my standards have gotten I'd rather just "sleep" alone

    And on a side note, I'm starting to realize that having standards isn't a bad thing and I should expect men to meet them. (They're not unreasonable standards just basics- a job, a place to live, clean, can take care of himself, doesn't ask me for money, teeth in his mouth, likes kids, somewhat mature, daily hygiene...ya know, the basics, lol)

    awesome! honorable and respectable!

    My husband went to Heaven 10 years ago... I also have 2 children, now in their teens... I've only dated 3 men and only within the last couple years... I have never had sex with anyone other than my husband. lots of inquiries... but none meet the standard. still waiting for my "Prince Charming".

    Yes I still have standards no matter how long the dry spell although get a few drinks in me, and they will lower.

    Bahaha I agree! Unfortunately, there's not a lot of guys who like a bigger girl, no matter how many drinks. I'm constantly surrounded by guys in my chosen path (engineering student), most of them single, and there's still no action.... :noway:

  • Sleep with just anyone? No way. I have vibrators. They don't have diseases or bad breath.

    You go girl. Ditto 100%

    Engineering guys are known for their brains. But get them warmed up and you may be surprised...just pick one and ask him out.

    I have standards, and they're rather high. (And I'm good with that.) I don't believe in the existence of "casual sex".


    Though I have sometimes wondered.. if God had made me more extroverted, would I be a huge slut? Ah, some things we'll never know. ;)

    I have standards, they need to have teeth, decent hygiene and there has to be attraction. Prior to me my husband had zero standards and well lets just say seeing what he would sleep with gives me absolutely no self esteem....he HAS ZERO standards...I take that back it needs a pulse.

    For a committed relationship, of course I have standards.

    For the "I just want to get laid, oh you're a guy, wanna bang?" situation, nope. If I'm sexually attracted to them then that's good enough for me.
