How many sexual partners is enough for you to run and hide when your partner tells you their number??? Some say 10 is alot, but I dont think so, not now-a-days......I think more than 1 different partner every couple of month's is a lot (assuming they were completely single at the time) more that 8 a yr is alot to me......What do ya'll think, MEN ABOUT WOMEN ESPECIALLY.......Would your "man" number be okay for you, but not if it was her number instead??

Ha... you think anyone really ever tells the truth to their partner about how many they've been with.

I remember when I met my ex 4 years ago the subject came up. He said 12 (he was 25 when I met him) so I was cool. A week later the number jumped to 16.... ummm ok sure lol
A month passed and he told me he remembered this one time blah blah lol.. so the magical number is 22.

I told him times that by 2 and add 5 tell me the answer and just leave it at that. No questions.

Me on the other hand said .... 3.... naturally

I honestly don't think numbers should be discussed. There are just some things that you should keep to yourself. No one said every detail about you as a person has be mentioned. I don't think it's pertinent to discuss numbers as long as you have a trusting relationship.

At one time...numbers were a huge issue for...but I soon realized that most good lookin' girls are going to be waaaay more sexually active than I am...so I thought about it and decided...

Who cares really...ultimately...sex with anyone outside of me...to me...is nasty...so long as she's not "open" once she's with me...I don't really care about her past...

Piss on it...

As for me...I've only been with 5 or 6 women...in my life...ever...sux 2bme...I need more lovin'...horny dog here...I'm in heat...meow...someone neuter me...OMG...

LOL

Just jokes...I'm a geek...yes ma'am that is correct...

I don't care what someone's done in their past, it's history. I judge them with a clean slate from the moment I've met them. There are a lot of promiscuous people in the world, now that we're out of highschool I think we can drop the connotations and labels involved with people that like to have sex. Safe. sex.

The number of past partners should never be the topic of discussion. Someone's past should not be an issue. Your focus should be on the present only.
I have had men ask me that question and I refuse to answer. The few times I did answer, (because the guys swore it didn't really matter), it became an issue and the questioning got more detailed.
I think that a person who asks how many people you have slept with does so due to their insecurities and giving them an answer (any answer) will only feed their insecurities.

Personally, I could care less how many the woman has been with. I have dated reformed call girls, Ex-escorts, Ex-Hookers, and just normal women who have been around and I could care less how many guys they have been with. IF anything, I am a bit jealous that they had the opportunity to have so much sex...man it must be nice... Eat my heart out and all that... Otherwise I don't care. I ain't after a virgin so, it doesn't matter if one guy has been there before or a million..big deal... I mean it doesn't wear out or have an expiration date on it so why should it matter...

Some people are just to hung up over the whole sex thing. People treat sex like it was some holy object. Big deal..it is a normal human function like eating or breathing... it has nothing to do with feelings or emotions or anything else other than feeling good.

Heck, by the time you get to my age (or even 10 years ago) the number isn't even thought of. Attitude and how comfortable she is with her own sexuality is more important (as far as the sex part of a relationship goes).

100s would be too many.
Really I think the topic is better left not discussed.

In the first place, if you're counting, that may be a problem. I mean just counting is like you're keeping score. I wouldn't ask, unless I suspected she had a problem. Then I would be concerned about getting serious. Women as well as men can be too libidinous. That's definitely a problem. But questioning how many is too much like high school, or the inquisition. Which is it?

Personally, I have saved myself for the right man, so I would expect him to be a virgin as well.

Why ask about something that is the past if you know it's just going to hurt?
If you can handle the truth...ask!

I personally do not care to ask or wonder how many he has been with. It's all about him not the amount of girls he has been with.

I would rather not know. As long as he has been safe, what business is it of mine?

My gorgeous DS,

Everytime I agree with your posts, I dunno what do to anymore... We're not supposed to agree!!!

This topic should NEVER be brought up, NEVER... No matter what she's gonna say it's always gonna be too much anyways...

"how many ppl you slept with? 3!?!??! Tsk... I guess that how your mama raised you..." - Chris Rock

It's irrelevant to the relationship and will only cause issues... I repeat : DONT ASK!!!

Never occur to me to ask. What difference could it make. I only would care how many other partners she had after we got together exclusively.

I was with a girl last year that voluntarily told me she'd been with 31 guys between the time she was 17 and like 22ish, and 2 since then (she was 25 at the time).

To me, 31 guys in 5 years is TONS, and it made me concerned that she might have something. So, I asked her about that, and she freaked on me. I mean, she told me how many guys, and I got concerned for my health if I was gonna be with her. God forbid

Anyway, we just started talking again this week and we're both past it. I remember when she told me she'd been with a lotta guys, I didn't wanna know the number and I told her not to tell me - because I didn't wanna judge her for it (which I knew I would). She seemed pretty cool and she told me she'd only been with 2 guys in the last 3 years or whatever. For me, that was good enough. Then she got drunk one night and told me.

I think that if I want to get serious with somebody we should just both get paperwork done, and progress from there, that's it that's all, "clean" slate. I think that's reasonable.

I don't think it's a good thing to discuss the number of sexual partners!
Why do you need to know? Isn't it more important to know about STD's????
