Me, too--and I'm one of them! Dh and I were both each other's firsts in college.

They either met their spouses very young or very physically unattractive (not meaning to be rude but I know some couples like this) or very shy.

Why? Literally everyone I know who has slept with one person fits one of the three categories.

NP- I think the opposite is true. The unattractive, chunky women always have higher numbers. It's a self-esteem thing or daddy issues. The really attractive, undamaged women aren't sleeping around.

DH is the third person I slept with but I have had 5 partners. We met in early 20s but didn't date and then got back together at 25. I wish I had slept with more people in college.

I'm the poster with 100+. I am pretty cute -- not knock out gorgeous or anything like that. But I was often accused of being incredibly sexy. I've had office crushes from both men and women, and my closest friends tell me that I have (or had) serious sex appeal. Don't try to be. Guess it's part of who I am/was. Much less now -- I'm definitely settling into middle age.

One. Met my husband at 19, married at 24. I'm in my early 40s now. No regrets.

And that doesn't count oral. I have no idea that number. It's not totally obscene, but definitely over 6.

6. First when I was 18. Dh was number 6 when I was 26.

Does it matter?

DH is #6. I am his #5.
We met at 28 & 29, married two years later. Only been each other's for 11 years.

4 not including a date rape. I'm 34. I'm single but in a fwb with the last guy it's been 6 years.

For those who have been with several partners, is your significant other aware of your number?

I'm 36- so young gen x. A couple of our family friends were hs sweethearts so (even though I didn't ask) I'm fairly certain they are 1ers too.

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.

I'm the oldest millennial you can be; I have only ever been with my husband (same for him).
