To ask for your numbers...

Thread inspired by another. I was quite shocked by some of the pretty judgemental posts regarding someone's sexual partner number...

What's your number?
Would you admit it if asked?
Are you ashamed of your sexually history?

I can't say I kept a tally but I would say between 35-40 and I would admit it depending on company and alcohol consumption.

For example I wouldn't admit it to my folks but probably would during a daft game of truth or dare down the pub with mate.

100% unashamed.

Share if you dare ladies Wink

About 30. Not quite sure of the exact number as apart from dh the rest are over 20 years ago.

Thassa looooong time - why does it feel like 5 minutes Hmm

FabBakerGirl · 02/03/2014 21:15

Mine is single figures but I wish it was only DH.

Does anyone else think that billy might be the wife/partner of the man who started the other thread? He says in it that his wife/partner went to a school reunion thing and admitted to 110 partners...billy said up thread 110 and funnily enough she was talking about numbers at old friends meet up recently...or is that just obvious to everyone and I'm now looking stupid by pointing it out?!?

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 02/03/2014 21:19

3, including dh. Yes, I would admit it if asked. No, I am not ashamed.

YoYoItsYoyoTheYoyoYo · 02/03/2014 21:20

112 and a half

IamInvisible · 02/03/2014 21:21

4 including DH, we've been together over 20 years.

Yes I would admit it if asked, although not to my mother because she thinks DH is the only one.

No, I am not ashamed.

MeepMeepVrooom · 02/03/2014 21:24

Around 20
Yes
No

I've spent 11 of my 12 sexually active years in monogamous relationships. If I'd been long-term single then it might be in quadruple figures as I'm not cut out for celibacy.

This is why I think numbers are meaningless. My number is only moderate because I've spent most of my adult life in serious relationships. Had my first marriage worked then it would've stayed at 1.

I will be 70 next month. I was married to 3 of them and a virgin when I was 19. Dh1 was first. I never committed adultery. One was just once and all 3 'extras' were between dh1 and dh2 so 4 before I was 25.

BolshierAyraStark · 02/03/2014 21:55

Tbh I haven't got a fucking clue & nor do I care, haven't kept a tally but think it's probably over 10 but less than 20...

aderynlas · 02/03/2014 21:55

There was more laughter at my number than any of the others at a hen party. Think i should have fibbed !

Cakeismymaster · 02/03/2014 21:56

Ha ha billy and meep should have known I was slow off the mark there! Sorry sleep deprived with a young baby so not the sharpest cake in the shop at the mo

FudgefaceMcZ · 02/03/2014 22:00

3.14159

MeepMeepVrooom · 02/03/2014 22:02

I'm intrigued as to what the .14159 counts towards? Grin

1 - my DH. As already stated on others threads, delighted about it and a)no I don't wish I'd gone with others and b) I don't think I missed out fed up answering these bloody questions IRL

No
Yes

Weathergames · 02/03/2014 22:09

I'm not sure I think it's over 110.

I never felt the need to count.

I never sacrificed a passionate sexual experience because of fears I would be judged by anyone in my life or on the internet.

MostWicked · 02/03/2014 22:18

Not ashamed at all, I just don't understand why anyone else would be remotely interested, care or be able to form some judgement about me.

I cannot understand why couples feel the need to discuss this. I honestly couldn't give a stuff what my DH did sexually before me.

eeetheygrowupsofast · 02/03/2014 22:23

The most interesting has just occurred to me...my dh of 20 years has NEVER asked me! I actually really love him right now. And by the way it's at least 30 over a 10 year period before we met.

MsBehave · 02/03/2014 22:29

No shame but certainly no wish to share that on a national forum in the same way I have no desire to share my bra size.

And no, I'm not ashamed of those either Grin.

SelectAUserName · 02/03/2014 22:31

1 - my DH.

I'm neither proud nor ashamed, it's just the way things turned out.

Cuxibamba · 02/03/2014 22:44

About 11, including DH.
