    I never ask. Many feel the need to tell though. It only takes one partner to catch an STD.

    But quite honestly, there's a lot to be said about a gal with some experience. :devil: :smooched: :flowerforyou:

    Once you reach an age where you have (proper) sexual feelings (not the sort you have when your 13 and looking at your dads zoo mag) then sex is a basic need... just like bathing! If your in a long term relationship from the age 18, so by 24 have only been with that one person its easy to judge people who sleep with someone new every other week... but the fact is when in a relationship you get all the sex you need, but when your single that feeling doesn't just go away, you need to satisfy it, so if someone is single for a long time they are going to have a lot of partners, you can't just expect single people to not get any while those in relationships get it everynight. The problem is when people have an addiction to sex... and thats only a problem because it causes destruction to their life.... if nobody is getting hurt/used/cheated on its nobody else damn business.
    Are you being serious right now? I haven't had sex in five and a half years because I haven't been in a serious and committed relationship in five and a half years. I don't expect other people to do that, but to say that it's a basic need and you have to satisfy it is...ridiculous. Maybe YOU need it, but I get along fine without it. It's not like bathing or eating or breathing. It's nice to have when you can get it, but you're not going to die without it, otherwise I'd have died a long time ago. "so if someone is single for a long time they are going to have a lot of partners" <---:laugh:

    As to the question of how many is considered too many, that obviously depends on who you ask. Personally, I wouldn't ask. I don't need to know how many people anyone has slept with. If I was with a guy who treated me well, cared for me, respected me, and all that, my feelings for him wouldn't suddenly change by knowing how many people he'd slept with.


    Um...I have to ask...does that mean absolutely NO sex--even of the self-induced kind? If so, I couldn't last more than a couple of weeks...just saying...

    Single usually means: "I'm not sleeping with anyone."
    Single sometimes means "I'm not in a monogamous relationship with a specific person. At the moment. How YOU doin'?"

    In other words, it means... nothing.

    X + 2 is too many. X + 1 is perfect.

    Where x = current number of exes, and 1 is whoever you end up with for the rest of your life.

    Simple, basic algebra :P

    simple yet brilliant:glasses:

    That's exactly why your 30's are way better than your 20's.

    I'm not a fan of guys asking me about my number. For the record I'm 30 and my number is 9.

    That being said, I have nothing to be ashamed of. I've been safe, sane, etc. I just don't know why guys want to know that.

    Several people have asked me and then asked "Don't you wanna know mine?" Ummm, not really, your past is your past :ohwell:

    I haven't been asked for my "number" since I was in my early 20's. Most people don't seem to care or even want to know. Honestly nobody knows my number. It's not a topic of conversation for me as it is my private life. I'm not embarrassed or ashamed, i just don't need to explain myself or justify my actions that came before I met whoever it is I'm currently with.

    A lot of it depends on how many long term relationships you've had. If you've had two lengthy relationships in your life your number will be smaller than someone who has done a lot more dating because their relationships didn't work out.

    As long as you are safe and respectful to everyone involved - have fun!

    I have to disagree that Sex is not a basic need!! They teach you these things in basic nursing classes, try googling Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Sex is right there with food and water.

    Food and water is not a basic need?

    Then how is that all nuns don't die early?

    I've gone quite long periods without sex and been just fine.
