Romantically challenged or?

Okay, so I never had HBO and missed the whole 'Sex and the City' thing but was once told by a non-NYC friend that my NYC friends reminded her of SATC I never knew what that meant until now - watching reruns on TBS.

An episode is on tonight where Sarah JP is dating a guy who won't spend the night. After a few scenes of this guy not spending the night she gets frustrated and ends up asking him what's the deal with him not wanting to 'sleep over'. He says he does not want to just sleep with someone he does not care about and since it had only been ten days he wanted to wait.

SJP then goes into her reporter thing and the question for this episode is are NYC women of a certain age 'romatically challenged' or sluts Basically, how many men is too many to sleep with

I guess the answer will come by the end of the episode But it did make me curious about opinions of the LIW crew How many is 'too many'

They were talking about this on z100 the other day. I don't know - I think it depends on a few things, like the age of the person, and if they've been single for 10 years - because then I can understand a higher number. But if a girl usually has a boyfriend, and her number is just as high, then JMO

So, it's over and the red head attorney character said 42 is her number - she had to write them all down since she got an STD and needed to call ALL OF THEM

Her boyfriend said his number was 60+ and it all seemed fine

All I have to say is sometimes you have to do a little more than just kiss a few frogs before you find your prince!

i don't know... as long as you are safe (that means wrap it up ladies, BC won't cut it) then i think it's okay to do what you want. also, along with being safe comes responsibility: you cannot sleep with a guy that you know you won't end up being with if all he does is tell you that you are the one-- that's not fair to him. i have never felt that sleeping with people was a 'bad' thing and it comes from the beginning of time-- women are always supposed to be the pure ones and men can do whatever they want...

what about me sleeping with who i want makes me non-pure? sex is human nature, it's an amazing thing and i love it-- so i did it when i wanted before i met fh, with who i wanted (always made, IMO, good decisions) and was always always always extra careful. drugs and alcohol were never my thing (a lot of other people in HS and college partied hard) for me, it was sex! ...and ice cream or fried food occasionally!!

so i think the number is whatever you want it to be. my number, and i'm not ashamed to say it, is six not including fh... so 7 total and i'm done for life! lol but that's ok b/c being with fh (as i'm sure you all know) is a WHOLE different experience so that's why i want it for life with him-- i'm happy with my number, i feel i got a lot of experience in my 22 years and counting-- it would be higher if i never met fh b/c i would still be dating to meet that perfect guy-- so that's my take on it...

that being said, i'm off to take the puppy to the groomer (she was spayed two weeks ago and just had her stitches removed yesterday) so she's stinky and needs some pampering ASAP!
