How many people have you "been with" ?

[bigdaddy]

Nope, not enough said. Not all of us who were single in the 70's fit the stereotype.

I was uber-stereotype. In a rock band. I lived the sex, drugs and rock-n-roll stereotype. And it was awesome.

Ah, the 60s and 70s. Great decades. We need more like them.

Talk to Charlie Sheen.

I'm 35 and i had my share. I really had to think a bit over the last 20 years or so since i've been active (and no.. didn't lose my virginity at 15.. i'm counting kissing and petting too as the first steps). I actually had to count using fingers and thought back.. all the one night stands, relationships and affairs and i never thought i'd get up to this number (and no i won't tell ).

I'm not a ladies man but many of these women i got with by being just me.. on a good day funny and charming and sometimes that's all you need.

If I count petting my number goes from 5-7 to about 25.

 

[Nerys Ghemor]

None. I haven't found the right one yet.

I hope you find what you're looking for.

Most likely not while I'm in my current job. But, at some point when I stop traveling as often, I think I may take some classes where I might meet someone. Who knows?

Anonymous poll... how many people have you slept with? Are you comfortable with it? Sometimes the question comes up in a new relationship, and it can be an awkward thing. Have you ever had to break into this topic with somebody and felt weird about it?

Slept with = 0
Been with < 5

Talk to Charlie Sheen.

Why?

 

[Cheapjack]

Don't know where he's been.

 

[Infern0]

2, both long term girlfriends

 

[DimesDan]

Since I lost my virginity when I was just shy of twenty, which was nearly seven and a half years ago, I've had sex with, enough, it's certainly more than a couple of dozen though! I'm not exactly proud of the number, but not completely ashamed of it either, just content.

 

[Shazam!]

I know we're Trekkies and that, but 0 is scoring alarmingly high.

Although it does make me look like a Cassanova by comparison.

So should all Trekkies aim to put it about like Captain Kirk, or are they satisfied to use him as their proxy? From an evolutionary viewpoint, I guess Trek is screwed even if Trekkies aren't.

Discarding encounters that didn't end in full intercourse then it's 6 for me. 2 in long term relationships, the others with friends (it can work!). Counting all sexual encounters including oral and stinky pinky then I have lost count. I spent more time in my youth with my hands down ladies pants than I care to remember. I was never one for going out to bars and picking women up though, I just seem incapable of doing it. I remember the crippling frustration of being a virgin and the utter elation/disappointment of losing it. The idea and buildup to sex always seems better than the act itself.

...The idea and buildup to sex always seems better than the act itself.

After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true.

 

[Starbreaker]

Very interesting... I was shocked at the number of people who also picked my category.

 

[siskokid888]

This month?

 

[Q2UnME]

Only 5 to date. Was married initially to women #1. Now currently happily married to woman #5. Was always a relationship type person, no one night stands here. So when marriage #1 ended, women #2 through #4 were part of relationships that lasted several months each.

 

[Gryffindorian]

Very interesting... I was shocked at the number of people who also picked my category.

It would've been A LOT more interesting if I could see who voted 0 and who voted 12+.

 

[Satyrquaze]

^ or.. 20+.

 

[Kestra]

Eh, I think people make way too big a deal out of virginity. I don't find it alarming at all.

 

[Satyrquaze]

^ Agreed.

Several of my closest friends are in their 30s and virgins. I don't judge them any more than they judge me.

 

[An Officer]

^ or.. 20+.

This figure is not at all extra-ordinary in many circles. Many of my friends and ex-colleagues could easily double that without anyone batting an eye.

 

[Venardhi]

More than I can count on my fingers, but I'm pretty sure I'll max out before I use all my toes, there are one or two there I'm not entirely clear on what happened.

A handful from relationships, a couple handfuls from short-term dating or FWB situations and the last few from lonely nights and the right connection.
