I prefer a LTR partner to have a high body count.

Why? Because I believe that “hoe phases” are vital to killing any of the what if’s and curiosities that come with relationships. I’d much rather my partner, like myself, be able to have had their fun and be done with it (both of us having had our cake and eating it too), instead of harping on what could have been with other people.

I know the general consensus from naysayers here, is the opposite. That women with high body counts = divorce rates or that promiscuity is biological etc. but my views are rooted in personal experience. In previous exclusive relationships the curiosity of dating experiences with other women killed me. It’s shitty, but I was young. But being a bit older, I know that when I’m ready to commit again all of the fun will be out of the way and I want the same for whoever I’m with.

So change my view that higher body counts = more commitment in LTR’s. Please save the studies and speak from experience.
