Do you always ask a new SO or potential SO how many people they’ve slept with?

And when is it appropriate to do so?
I’m fine with telling a boyfriend or potential boyfriend if he asks but I think that’s something to bring up once you’ve been on at least a couple dates. I would definitely be curious about his past but I’m not sure I would ask him.

  • It's not something that comes up immediately. Last girl i went on a date with told me as a way to impress me. 30 guys... And she mentioned to me everything they did and what she liked, and I didn't ask for a second date.
    Last girlfriend I had we discussed it before we actually had sex

  • Why do you need to know, unless you are thinking they mess around, and might have HIV or other diseases? If so, why be with someone like that?

    • I’m curious about his past sexual habits. It’s a turn off if he’s been with too many other women.

    • @thegirlfromthething It's better to know, sooner, than later, if he is a 'player' and has had some diseases!! If you ask him, and he gets offended, then he is probably someone you shouldn't be with!! :)

  • Nope, I never really do. It’s just something eventually comes up into conversation down the line but I’ve never outright asked.

  • You should always ask someone you might have sex with. I think 3 or 4 dates in would be a good time to bring it up.
