Does anyone not know the number of men they have had sex with?

Got thinking about this after reading another thread about a boyfriend asking.

I have no idea. Is that really bad? Lots is my ballpark guess.

7, one of them is my husband now. One was a one night stand, the others were whilst dating or being in a relationship.

I should have had more fun in my 20s 😂

LaurieFairyCake · 31/08/2021 23:42

Also completely forgotten now

Spanglelights · 31/08/2021 23:43

I'm not sure if mines in double or triple figures..I certainly had fun though

PwySyddYma · 31/08/2021 23:45

I could probably give a ballpark figure but even then that could be plus or minus 10 😂

I don't regret any of them, it was fun, it was consensual and it was safe. I'm in my 30s and single.

1, 2, many
GintyMcGinty · 31/08/2021 23:52

3 for me

#3 I married.

MorriseysGladioli · 31/08/2021 23:52

Hang on.....
How many was it for Madonna?

thenightsky · 31/08/2021 23:56

No idea. But i'm old and the 70s were a bit of a blur anyway.

Killergigglebunnies · 31/08/2021 23:57

Not sure actually. We was pretty footloose and fancy free in my 20’s. Lived on my own, no ties.
Met dh when I was 30, that put a kibosh on it all.

ScrumptiousBears · 31/08/2021 23:57

I'd say I stopped counting at 23. It was more that it didn't matter to me to have to count. I suppose I got older. Definitely not over 30 though.

Crinkle77 · 01/09/2021 00:00

I can't remember but I'd estimate around 30 or 40 but possibly more. I had a wild time in my 20's but have only slept with the one person in the last 14 years.

Chicchicchicchiclana · 01/09/2021 00:01

Me. I've forgotten because it is so unimportant and something I never think about. It isn't a high number. Maybe 12 to 20? Dunno.

Plumtree391 · 01/09/2021 00:01

I do know, I had a count up years ago. I haven't always told the truth about it, not that I've been asked much and my husband never asked, it didn't matter to him what went on before we met.

Ingridla · 01/09/2021 00:03

It's between 40 and 60. I think, I counted with my best mate once when drunk in my mid 30s!

MrsBerthaRochester · 01/09/2021 00:04

More than 50 but less than 100 would be my best guesstimate.

FizzyLizzie · 01/09/2021 00:04
  1. Neither proud nor ashamed, it is what it is. Some I enjoyed more than others 😂
wedwewerpink · 01/09/2021 00:06

That would be 3

IceLace100 · 01/09/2021 00:07

I can't remember them all.

I'm glad I had the memories during the long lockdown hahah!

Itsmemaggie · 01/09/2021 00:11

I used to know, but I’ve now completely forgotten and if I tried to work back and calculate I think I’d get it wrong/ miss out some I’ve totally forgotten about.

JustGiveMeGin · 01/09/2021 05:58

It's definitely less than 20 , maybe 13-15 ish.....I think my brain had purposely forgotten some of the shittier ones Shock

SukonthaM · 01/09/2021 06:02

Dunno. Somewhere between 10-20 I think

Callcat · 01/09/2021 06:06

20 something? 30 something? No idea really. Much fun!

PissedOffNeighbour22 · 01/09/2021 06:06

I lost count years ago but it's only around 10.
A good two thirds of them I wish I hadn't bothered with. As a PP said, some were more to save their feelings than me actually wanting to have sex with them.

PluggingAway · 01/09/2021 06:09

No idea. I never thought to keep count. Unless the number is very small, I find it a bit odd when someone can reel off an exact number.

HocusPocuss · 01/09/2021 06:15

I don’t remember my exact number. I’d ballpark it at around 30 because I had fun at uni! Can on,y remember the names for approx 10 of them!
