Is 4 new sexual partners in 8 months too much or am I prude

I think that how many sexual partners someone has is an entirely subjective matter. If both parties are willing and go about it safely understanding the nature of any potential ongoing relationship then why not? I honestly believe that someone’s sex life is their own private personal business and as long as they are comfortable with their choices there should never be shame attached.

Not all at the same time I hope!

If they're an adult, it's no ones business but their own.

Welcome to GN Shanavine. Interesting topic for your first post.

It would depend on your intentions with the person and the future you want to have with them- afraid of commitment, for example?

No-one else's business apart from the participants.
I am curious as to why you are asking though?

vampirequeen Thu 21-May-20 06:14:17

At the same time? Concurrent or each in their own time frame? What age?

Dillyduck Thu 21-May-20 08:57:04

Don't judge.

Under social distancing regulations, nothing short of incredible!

Grandad1943 Thu 21-May-20 09:04:46

As my old mother use to say "if one is not enough, one dozen ain't too many". ???

Grandad1943 Thu 21-May-20 09:07:49

MawB, I know some men are very well built, but two metres is stretching things a bit I feel. ?

Op has not come back. Probably a bit busy.....

Actually I feel she may have been talking about a friend or relative, not herself.

If you’re a gran Shanavine how do you find the time and energy? ?
Only advice I have to add is “practice safe sex always”.
There are other diseases around, not only Civid-19.

Puzzler61 Thu 21-May-20 09:13:12

Oh Lucca good point -
I assumed OP was posing the question for herself. (Message to self - never presume).

Lucca Quote [ Op has not come back. Probably a bit busy.....] End Quote.

OP not coming back, very much not unusual on this forum these days. However, in the case of this OP, she is probably "slapping around" somewhere. ?

I thought he was a young grandad from his previous post.

Grammaretto Thu 21-May-20 10:16:06

She's asking if she's the only prude here. It looks like she is wink

annsixty Thu 21-May-20 10:16:24

Don’t forget people are getting very bored and teenagers haven’t been at school for weeks....
