"I am not holding it against her for being promiscuous..."
And you shouldn't, unless she is your wife. I am curious about what constitutes promiscuity in this day and age. The TV and movies make it seem as though bed hopping is perfectly acceptable. Someone mentioned, in a comment, that promiscuity is OK as long as you are single. BUT...that didn't mean he wanted a promiscuous woman. (I have written that word one too many times. It doesn't even sound like a real word now, does that ever happen to you when you repeat a word a few times?)
So, what is the norm today? A few dates? When you are in love? I am not going to go by Jerry Springer and I don't want to ask anyone I know, they might take it the wrong way. Being new to dating again, I should know this. I haven't been single since pre-AIDS and I am wondering what the "norm" is. So...let me know what you find acceptable, in actions and in what you would expect from the person you are with. We all have a few different opinions, some people would say, "Go ahead...have fun!" But, they wouldn't want you after you had all that fun. Now, this is one I NEED to know!
What are you all doing out there and how old are you? Do the other ex-hippy people STILL think it is OK to sleep around? Do the younger folks think so? Don't be shy, you don't have to use your name, just leave me a line so I know what to do...one day I might have an opportunity and I should know what I am dealing with.
Thanks!

To that weird guy...this was cracking me up "I'm a single guy, so you know I'll be as promiscuous as the girls I'm interested in will let me be. ;-)"
Jen,
LOLOL, I don't ever remember a guy saying, "Get that hand out of my pants now or I will scream!"
Guy, you know I luv ya, but that was seriously funny.

Oh, and I know what you said about quality vs. quantity, I found it too cute to leave that alone so I used it the way I did, all the while, understanding exactly what you meant, even before you wrote the next comment.:)
