Anonymous wrote:I am the opposite: a woman who is the second wife of my first and only husband. In the wedding planning phase, I wished that he hadn't already done it before, so that it would be a new adventure for us both. After we got married, I realized that every relationship is its own adventure and I was glad that he'd had experience working through conflict in his first, short marriage (right out of undergrad). Everything that we've been through together in the past decade has eclipsed whatever came before for either of us. I would feel differently if I were trying to come after a long-term spouse/co-parent.
Thank you. This is what the post was intended to ask about, not # of sex partners.
