I'm breaking up with you because....

https://www.yahoo.com/style/guys-6-reasons-for-breaking-up-with-his-girlfriend-102902248168.html

What struck me was the editorializing in the article that his #6 was "narrow-minded." (For those of you who won't read the article, reason #6 is that she won't disclose the number of sexual partners she's had, leading him to believe it is greater than 3, which to him is unacceptable.)

I may not necessarily agree with all of them as they probably wouldn't bother me, but I refuse to call any of them dumb or stupid because he's entitled to define relationship requirements as he sees fit. (Not having a FB account would probably be the top of my list for a potential beau if I were ever to enter the dating scene again. But I digress.)

But back on topic: is asking your current sexual partner for his/her sexual background/habits "narrow-minded?" Is it acceptable? Is it nunyuz?

I don't think I would date someone who wouldn't be honest and forthcoming.

I'm an open book, and I have a hard time relating to/trusting people who aren't. That being said, I'd rather have someone say they don't want to tell me than lie to me.

ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies....

 

[shibumiseeker]

If I tell you and you are going to judge me for it then we aren't that compatible anyway (this works regardless of the number).

My opinion doesn't matter since so much of my previous life was documented on VHS and then DVD. Everyone knows!

Wow. I had no idea you were a little person. So whats it like to be one of Skulldaddy's minions?

It should be noted that at no time did printcraft and I appear in the same frame.

I'd rather that people break up for any reason or no reason at all than to stay together after they have found things that deeply concern them about the person, make babies (married or not) then get divorced and split up a family.

BTW- I can see 2 through 6 as valid reasons to doubt compatibility....and even #1 if the reason is that they are "keeping their options open".

Be that as it may, breaking up by text? Low rent. Granted, the last time I broke up with someone was 26 years ago....​by pager.

 

[eldirector]

#6 was the narrow-minded one? I would have guessed "rude to cat".

Been a while since I was "on the scene" as well. But, in my book, after dating for a WHOLE 2 months, it is "nunyuz". If it becomes an issue, then you BOTH get to increment by one, and start again. If ya'll are soul-mates, then it likely becomes irrelevant, and potentially humorous (video evidence not withstanding).

And for the record I have a Facebook account..........and 1 friend.

Am I still eligible?

 

[Vigilant]

As long as you use the Rule of 3, past partners shouldn't matter! Rule of 3 states: whatever number of past partners she says, multiply by 3. Whatever number past partners he says, DIVIDE by 3. That should get you somewhere in the wheelhouse!

 

[BrewerGeorge]

THREE! is his deal-breaker? For somebody in their 30's? That's crazy.

 

[RedneckReject]

I don't feel that the number of partners in the past should even matter. I feel like anything that happened before two people got together doesn't matter. I don't care if there were 3 or 300. What I would care about is that there is only one from here on out. Everyone has a past.

Bobo's life, his rules.

yea, why would anyone want a person with little to no experience....

I'm not sure I agree 100% with the breaking up by text.
These days with dating sites, FB, etc, it's an electronic world many people live in and know little of anything else.

This is what I thought. #7 probably read: "Please send my ***** back when you get a chance...no hurry, as I don't use them much anyway".
