- There's
a world of difference between being too naive and getting all revved up when you find out your girl has slept with other guys before you.
-
Virginity is overrated. Many posters seem worried about girls having too much baggage or being used goods. Having little or no experience sexually can be just as disastrous for a relationship.
And really, how can you think a girl's having sex is
"damaging her" and yet give it to her? Oh wait, double standards? When you do it to her, it's fine. But everytime she had sex with someone else before she lost a bit of value? Not a very healthy way to look at sex. It seems to be like the only getting damaged here is your fragile ego.
- Deal with it, girls have sexual urges and they do sleep with guys. Why turn into Talibans and get all shocked? As far as I'm concerned, the one thing that's a REAL red flag is wether or not she practiced
safe sex consistently and got
tested regularly for STD's. In short, it's ok she had fun as long as she did it responsibly, for her own sake and that of other's.

Society is not more or less fvcked or morally corrupted than it ever was. Don't make such generalizations on the state of the world based on one experience with a girl.
- I don't see how your looks or athletic abilities are relevant to this topic.
- If you should walk away from this thread with one valuable piece of advice:
your ego is still way too fragile for a relationship at this point. You'll be ready when you can deal with the fact that people do have a past and that a girl chose you over any other she's slept with or could sleep with. Don't take this as an attack, I have been there myself and it only revealed my insecurities.
-
IF you decide to stick with her, don't hold her past against her and make her apologize or feel like crap about something she did
before you knew her. Her experiences made her who she is now for better or for worse.
Make her feel guilty and ashamed and she'll only resent you for it.
- Historically, I guess it's fair to say that men have been terrified of women's sexual urges and have done their best to keep their legs crossed (genital mutilation, religious and moral injunctions etc.) Granted, a man surely wants to raise his own children and promote his own genes rather than some other dude's. Yet, why stick our head in the sand and deny the fact that
women are sexual creatures too? Contraception has made it far less risky for them or us to engage in recreationnal sex. There's not a damn thing you can do to turn back the hands of time.
