just being nosy , so you dont have to answer if you dont want to.
i had 1 serious reltionship before hubby.
i have had sexual relations with 10 men.
sometimes i think it is too many , but then you hear some stories of young girls and i dont think its that many.

I was DH's first sexual relationship too

QueenOfQuotes · 13/08/2005 16:27

HB - how old was your DH when you met him (If you don't mind me asking).

expatinscotland · 13/08/2005 16:27

I went home w/this Irish fella one night after WAY too much Guinness. Anyhow, he had this daft idea to take it to the shower, which of course I thought was a splendid idea at the time. He threw his arms round me and in the process I lost my balance and he toppled backwards. Well, he suffered a VERY nasty cut on the back of his head and as neither of us was sober enough to drive him to hospital (where he eventually needed 11 stitches to close the wound), I was forced to call a teetotal pal - NO WAY he'd let me phone an ambulance. Managed to get him dried off and semi-dressed before going, but the staff were grinning ear to ear when they asked how he'd come to hurt himself.

Dont mind at all

He was 21 and my manager at work. I was 16. Apparntly he was waiting for the right person

QueenOfQuotes · 13/08/2005 16:30

awww - that's was the same with DH too - he was 2 days short of his 24th birthday when we got together

(I thought he was lying when I asked when his birthday was and he "Convieniently" said "2 days time" ).

hellsbells4 · 13/08/2005 16:52

2 proper relationships (including dh - our 24th wedding anniversary this month)
sexual partners pre dh - 12 incl one one-night stand. Regrets???? Marrying the only partner I didn't enjoy sex with - thought that friendship would be more important long term than sex. And I thought our sex life would improve over time. BIG BIG BIG MISTAKE!!!!!!

steffee · 13/08/2005 16:55

3 serious relationships, 1 age 14-16 with someone much older and very much regretted, one 17-19 then on and off 19/20 and very very much regretted, though regret only that I was such a bitch and who knows if it might have worked out. Met dh at 20, now 24.

19 sexual partners in 10 years, many of them regretted (very deeply) and some not. Dh has had 6 or 7 sexual partners, and 3 (I think) serious relationships including me.

2 husbands, one who was a nightmare, one who seems to be a success so far!
slept with 18 men/1 girl, quite a few being one nighters out of nosiness.

Charlee · 13/08/2005 17:10

3 serious relationships including dp
3 sexuall relationships including dp

have 'seen' various boys/men but were never sexual

RosiePosie · 13/08/2005 17:54

I didn't think I was that strange, but obviously I am! I have had one sexual partner and one serious relationship. I'm 30. I do believe in sex before marriage, I have no problem with people having lots of sexual partners, but for some reason - it just never happened to me. And I don't regret it a bit. We've been together for 10 yrs... I was a late starter!

QueenOfQuotes · 13/08/2005 18:43

My five sexual relationships all came within about 6 months of each other from 18 - 18 1/2yrs.....then I met the 5th - who's now my DH

jayzmummy · 13/08/2005 18:57

2 sexual partners
1st was ex BF from age of 14-20
2nd DHtogether 16 years...married 15.

spidermama · 13/08/2005 19:08

I've had sex with about 15 men before I was 20. At 23 I married. That was 15 years ago and I've never slept with anyone else but him in all this time.

I was pretty normal amongst my peers but looking back, sex with 15 men before the age of 20.
I hope my dd shows more restraint.

I regret two of them, cherish 4, and am indifferent about the others.

jabberwocky · 13/08/2005 19:12

Ummm,

Lots !

Twiglett · 13/08/2005 19:32

can't quite remember

somewhere between humpty-dumpty and humpty-dumpty-two

nooka · 13/08/2005 19:39

One not very serious before dh, dh has been my only sexual (if we're going all the way) partner. Think I'm a bit of an outlier here! In my defense I met dh in my teens. He'd had one sexual relationship before, and has had one since.

I mean full intercourse (I think - but it was all a long time ago in my case!)

1 - my dh

swiperfox · 13/08/2005 21:15

waaaaaaaay too many. I'm not sure i remember but have been 100% faithful to my dp for the last 6 years and will be for the next 60

ETsmum · 13/08/2005 21:26

Cadbury - think you're the only one as "inexperienced" as me I'm 1 too - dh, married nearly 7 years, I wss 17 when we met, he was 22. And I love him to bits

Hulababy · 13/08/2005 21:28

Just the one - DH. Met at school when we were 16. No regrets that I might have somehow missed out on something.

cadbury · 13/08/2005 21:31

I didn't get together with dh until I was 22 and married at 24. Don't regret keeping myself for him at all.
