I'm in my early 30s. I was kind of a late bloomer. I didn't really start dating until my early 20s. My first sexual partner was the woman I eventually married. We were together 8 years but it ended a few months back.
So I'm back on the dating scene. A few weeks ago I started seeing a woman that I'm really into. Same age as me. Needless to say her sexual history is a lot more extensive than mine. I made the mistake early on of telling her that, with the exception of a a few one-night stands, my ex-wife was my only real partner. I was in a committed relationship for most of my 20s, so this information probably wasn't that hard to figure out.
Since then she has volunteered a lot of information about herself, without any prompting by me. Mentioning several times what kind of sex she has had, how young she started having it, etc. She mentioned she has cheated on someone in the past. No super graphic detail, but more stuff like... "I tried anal sex once, I didn't like it, it felt like...". You get the picture. She has said things like, "Have you had one-night stands? It's important you did." Also, "I've obviously been with a lot more people than you." On at least 4 separate occasions she has brought up that she slept with a woman before. She even mentioned once something that her sister had done with a famous celebrity.
She also said she hasn't been in a relationship for 3 years...
I'm not a prude and I'm not insecure about my sexual past at all. But I am kind of curious why she is throwing all of it out there. At first I was like "whatever" but the frequency of her mentioning (combined with the cavalier attitude) the same information over and over is getting pretty weird and distasteful. What if I wanted to have children with this person some day?
What's the deal? Is she insecure? I don't get the over-sharing. Thoughts?
