Seaking Love

[Zak]

I've been starting to get a lot more attention from the ladies now than I did five years ago. In the last couple years my partner-count went from 2 to 14 haha (which I don't even consider that much, though five years ago I would have pedestalized that, go figure lol). Not really invested in anything serious at the moment, just a few flings here and there, some lasting longer than others. My last serious-ish relationship was in 2014. We ended up wanting different things.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those against monogamy. I just notice while dating around things usually tend to go my way the less overly invested I get, so that's working out for me right now.

You keep count????? O_o;;

Actually, I know plenty of folks who keep count. I just... don't care... lol. Thinking about it, until two weeks ago, I hadn't had any sex since June of last year, but when I was ten years younger or so, I would've probably hooked up with 20 or more people in that time. Oh, the hormones of youth.

Haha I actually never thought about it until recently like a month ago when faced with that question and thinking "shit, you know what? I lost count..." and later that day went through them in my head.

Might have missed one or two, haha some were more forgettable than others.

Also, wtf is "guarding virginity"? Especially when applied to someone else... shudder

It's either

1) a medieval thing, think of knights and the castle maidens they protect
2) a conservative thing, sex before getting married used to be prohibited, you know
3) you have to wait until you are 18 or so anyway, depending on the country
4) there are some values behind being a virgin, some may find being untouched the same as beautiful
5) or just something I made up because I was jealous to the other boys.

1. So like, white knights? That kind of behavior is actually kind of off-putting.

2. Okay sure, that exists, but why impose it on someone?

3. Why would you be taking an interest in girls under 18 to want to "guard their virginity" until then?

4. I guess I can get behind this... well, maybe not so much a virgin, but a woman with a lower partner count/less promiscuous is considered more attractive/desirable often to men (including myself), but it's the opposite with men.

5. Ok
