haha...as of now, its a 3-way split tie!

I'm not ashamed of my sexual history, and it's a lot easier to get it out into the open than tip toeing around the subject.

My husband knows everything about me. And now that we're married, he's the only person that needs to know. It's no one else's business.

I still tell everyone (in a very tongue in cheek manner) that I'm a virgin.

My number is not as bad as it used to seem.

I always lie. I find that guys don't like girls to be too experienced or too virginal so I stick to the number 8. I'm the only person who really knows and to be honest, I'm don't like to keep count.

I tell my boyfriends, but it's not a big thing...
It is a pretty high number for a girl, but it's not too bad. And non of them seemed scared or intiminated by it, so I guess it's working out!

My boyfriend and I have a "don't ask don't tell" policy. I don't want to have to worry about running into some chick he might have slept with 10 years ago while we are out and that being super awkward, or vice versa. It works out great and I recommend it!

I just tell the truth...I'm not ashamed of my wh*reness. My last boyfriend acted bothered by it, but I didn't feel bad. At least I was honest. If he didn't want to know the truth he shouldn't have asked.

Absolutely not. In my opinion, it's extremely important to be aware of the sexual history of your partner.

I think that knowing the past of your partner and them knowing yours can be important, just never would want to know more than a number. I voted if he doesn't like it, it is his problem.

I'm a virgin, so, you know, if I lied and said I had X amount of sexual partners, I'm sure the guy would figure it out in the end. lol

I would only tell people who were extremely close to me, who specifically asked, and had a good reason to ask. Otherwise I wouldn't bring it up or share it voluntarily. It's not that I have anything to hide or not hide, it's just a personal question and it's not really anyone's business but mine.

my boyfriend knows.. but that's cuz my number is pretty small and i don't mind him knowing.. him on the other hand.. i don't wanna know haha... all i know is he is with me now and he goes for his yearly check-ups and that's all that matters to me! but i just came out and told him one day.. and actually asked him not to tell me his! haha.. i like to pretend that im his one and only lol

i dont think a number really makes a difference.
all it matters is if you're std free. and if ur heart is in the right place.

I don't lie. Not only do I feel no reason to lie to the man I love, but I think it's socially irresponsible to lie about your sexual history to someone you're sleeping with.

I don't lie.

It's too late for me, I lied in the beginning. I said 5, when the number was 8. So now the number is 6. He's had sex with like 9 girls included me and I think he told me 6 or 7 in the beginning. I honestly don't know how many partners he's had. But I won't ask because I don't want to confess that I've actually had sex with 8 people rather than 5. I considered them mistakes so I wanted to forget them. I with my current boyfriend was the only person I've ever had sex with. But that's a whole nother topic of regret! There's a lot of past stuff that does not matter what so ever and never will, so I just don't think about it and never bring it up and that means it's fine!

I don't need to tell anyone who I slept with. I get checked for STDs & HIV. As long as I have a clean bill of health, what I did is my business.

My number's low, so I don't lie. But if it was higher, I still wouldn't lie! The truth comes out eventually & I've got nothing to hide.

Wouldn't it be fun to have a poll asking for our numbers, in ranges (ie: 1 to 4, etc.)? It would be interesting to see!

It's not information that I share with anyone except for the person I am in a relationship with. My hubby knows my number, he's fine with it, we're both std free and happy. That's all that matters. No need to lie, you are who you are.

Or, you know... her

Don't need to, I've only had one and it's my boyfriend now of 5 years

I don't think it's fair to lie. That other person is trusting you enough to be intimate with you. There shouldn't be a reason to lie. If a number makes someone that uncomfortable then it wouldn't be meant to be.

I don't do actual numbers, if that's what we're talking about. My fiance knows there were others before him, and vice versa. That's enough information. That being said, the longer I know him and hear stories, the more I realize his past FAR outnumbers mine!

Corkie u rocked that one ,,,,I agree 100 percent!!

I don't think that people should tell each other how many other people they've slept with. That can open up a whole lot of unnessesary drama when it's something that can't be changed. The only thing that matters is whether or not you and your partner are STD free, and that's the conversation you need to have.

I'm very open so I tell everything. I have nothing to hide, plus I couldn't keep a secret about myself if I tried!

If it's someone I think I should tell (like a guy I'm getting really serious about) then why lie? That's just stupid and wrong. But anyone else who asks, what business is it of theirs?

hmm wouldn't lie about it, but than dont have to , what with the whole being celibate *grins*

in general i'm totally comfortable with my number, but i did lie to my ex so he wouldn't know it went up not too long after we broke up

i lied because i don't like to count some of the people i've had sex with :/ the mistakes don't really matter as long as you learn from them..

Guys can't handle hearing any number above5. It freaks them out. I'm not ashamed, but we do have to protect fragile egos!

I am way older than my hubby, so obviously i have had more experiance...but he doesnt need to know that.

I have a hard core rule... once you tell anyone anything personal... it is a count down till it becomes common knowledge.

I realize that women still don't get men are horrible gossips... but no one really needs to tell all their business to some man, just cause you have seen him with his pants off.

My "number" will grow as I get older... but for right now the answer is always 3 or 4!

I would never lie to my boyfriend but the "don't ask don't tell policy applies to him only because I don't really care or want to know how many people he's been with. Although he is older than me and has had much more experience i don't care to know. As long as i know he doesn't have a disease and i have basic knowledge of his past relationships I'm okay with it.

More Mystery, less History.

i dont have to be ashamed
hes my first
im his first
