Would you think less of someone who was having regular one night stands?

    I had my first one-night-stand in a long time tonight, I'm not long out of a long-term relationship. I couldn't get over the body confidence or openness of the girl who I was with. I'm over 40 and she told me she was 26. Would you think differently of someone if you knew they were having regular one night stands?

    If it's a male friend, "cos he'll tell you...

    I don't think less of them, but any male friend who has a lot of one night stands, it sounds great when you're young, then as time passes and the bedposts nearly break from all the notches, you begin to think how vacuous and soulless. So maybe not so much as think less, more pity at inability to form a lasting relationship...

    I'm trying to picture this

    MF Aw yeah Misty, I have SO much casual sex with people I don't know very well. You wouldn't believe!
    MC Em, okay Tom. I'm not really sure if that has a lot to do with whether or not you're enjoying the latest series of Criminal Minds though...

    Not in the least, fair play to them. The only sexuality I look down on is the sexual snob (IE, "my sex habits are better than your sex habits"), so in other words, anyone who answers yes to the OP ;)

    I'm with you on the Criminal Minds type conversation, but my friends who have regular one night stands just talk about it...a lot...so it's...

    MF, as we sit in a bar - "see that one over there, she squirts, like all over the place, and see that one in the corner...yeah I know she's married, but sure he's a clown...anyway, she's filthy..." And on and on and on. Backed up by the texts on the second phone, corroboration from female friends etc. etc.

    Fellows having one nights stands regularly revel in it. Unless they have something to lose, like a marriage, kids etc. Then they gotta really trust you to tell.

    Do they ever sidle up to you and ask you if you would think less of someone who had a one night stand?

    Always, and I explain that I don't think less of them, I just don't envy their inability to form a lifelong relationship. And then we guffaw, get back to sport or politics, another woman walks in, friend sees her and nudges me...and the cycle starts again...

    People are having fun and enjoying themselves......

    .....down with that sort of thing :D

    So what? As long as everyone'e enjoying themselves and no one's getting hurt why should it be an issue?

    Crikey. Remind me to never shift him. He tells.
    Indiscretion is a worse crime than promiscuity.
    That being said, I mightn't judge his behaviour, or hers, but I'd be wary of bedding down with someone who gets around that much.

    Why would I know, and if I did why would I care?

    It's not indiscretion in the sense of bragging about it. It's only told amongst a very close circle of friends, it's more that there isn't much we wouldn't know about each other.

    Really depends whether it's a woman or a man in most people's eyes..

    The last one night stand I had , I ended up with swollen ankles.

    I think it's disgraceful, a sure sign that a person is the absolute scum of the earth and deserving of a long, painful, excruciating death.

    Furnish your bedroom properly, or don't furnish it at all.

    Friends, nope as long as they weren't being stupid or constantly making the same mistakes and getting hurt. Guys, meh. Not so much. I wear mac lipstick, too expensive for kissing fucckboys, I wouldn't have any interest in a guy that was known for one night stands trying to play me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,681 ✭✭✭bodice ripper


    Why didn't you just title the thread 'I am over 40 and I slept with a 26 year old"? Seeing as its what you wanted to tell us...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,646 ✭✭✭✭qo2cj1dsne8y4k


    Why are you disparaging towards men who like to have casual sex?


    I wouldn't care if they were or not, I just wouldn't sleep with one

    If you're that guy who was on the luas at Heston station last night, she was no more than 19, my misses thought she was about 17!!!!

    No if I wasn't getting involved with them, but I wouldn't be thinking fair play to them either - I don't agree with this "Must be really sexually liberated in order to look enlightened" outlook. As with anything, people have differing, nuanced views on it. And I wouldn't be interested in getting involved with a man who is a player (nor would I blame a man for not being interested in a woman who's really promiscuous).

    A key that can open many locks is a huge security risk.
