    [quote=[Deleted User];60845713]Yup, my BF is the same with the 'what's the problem?' attitude, yet I know if he were to meet my ex, he'd feel exactly the same. I think it's natural to feel awkward.[/QUOTE]

    Ugh....I was dragged along to a birthday party of one of my better halfs ex's. Horrible, horrible experience. Truly awful. I can't remember why I wasn't more assertive at the time, but there's no way in hell I'd put up with it now.

    I see my boyfriend's exes all the time. At his leaving party I was sitting at a table with two of them chatting away. I honestly don't think he thinks it's a big deal and hasn't even considered that I'd have a problem with it. He has one of those big groups of friends from his area, so everyone has been with everyone - I've never had that so I find it hard to understand. I have a few friends who were friends with my ex as well, and that's it. None of these friends know my current bf. I prefer it that way and I would prefer my bf to be like this as well, but unfortunately he prefers to keep everyone in his life and mingle them all! :rolleyes:

    When I first met him, I actually wrote him off as a potential bf because he was so close to one particular ex, and I said I'd hate that in a boyfriend, couldn't be bothered with it. It's obviously no longer a big deal but I'd still prefer things to be different.

    In a row?! :eek:

    There's no truer expression, every man wants to go to bed with a whore and wake up with a virgin. You like that thing she does, but you don't wanna know how she learned it :D

    I don't want either Vinny. I don't know what your preferences are but leave me outa da generalize :cool:

    I wouldn't want to know! The past is the past. So long as I like him, he likes me, and we both are STI-free (hey, a little rhyme!), it's all good, in my eyes!

    I wouldn't want to be judged by the number of people I've slept with so I'd never judge someone on theirs. Everyone's different and their sexual choices and preferences should be respected.

    I brought this with my current boyfriend really early in the relationship. Couldn't help myself...ha

    He's 20 and has been with around 20 girls. According to him, only about 4 of them meant anything at all.
    Apparantly he had a gf cheat on him and "went a bit crazy" after that

    Honestly, I found this is little hard to stomach at first. It does seem a lot. Probably because I'm 19 and had only been with 2 guys!

    I guess I felt a little intimidated that he'd been with so many more people than me...
    In the end though, I realised that it doesn't really matter.
    He was honest with me (which was hard for him) and he's great guy.
    Number are just that...numbers.
