There was a thread recently about "last first kisses" and a surprising number of posters have been with the same person since their teens!

I wonder how old these people are or what generation.

Can't imagine it's happening much with millennials. Probably less in gen x too.

Generation xer here I know quite a few people my age who met their spouses in their late teens, however they also slept with a number of people in high school as well. I've actually always felt that people my age were bigger partiers (sex and drugs wise) than the millennials who were raised in a more supervised environment.

Huh. I'm reading this as a millennial who has had 27 partners and is considered the prude of my friend group. Thats why I posited that it might be a generational thing, because the "I've only slept with one guy that I met during high school"- I literally don't know a single person (in my age group) who that applies to. Not one.

So whats the point of being married and raising a family with kids who meet new moms and dads in your open marriage?

If you think the only point and benefit of marriage is to ensure your genitals remain pure to each other, you aren't thinking very hard. My wife and I are monogamous, but if we weren't it wouldn't minimize the stability, financial benefits, insurance, visitation rights, tax benefits and other things we get out of marriage.

So even if she chooses to be a top notch ho with anyone that would be okay since you have a marriage made of money?

If I'd stayed single longer, the number would be a LOT higher.

Good Lord.

^Go away.
