What's your number?

The movie is a stupid comedy. They have to find something to make a movie out of these days. They are running out of ideas. Do I think that? No, not at all. You could date 1 or a thousand, it makes no difference. And if someone who has dated many people, and think that they might have passed up the right person, well, thats also bull. That could else happen with dating just one person. But, all in all, a movie is a movie.

As we all know, Hollywood movies are not true. I dated five people, and only one seriously, before I married the fifth one. We'vebeen married for 47 years. Only one of these did I date enough to consider an ex. The other four were only one or two casual dates. You can draw your own conclusions. I think if someone believes that a lot of exes are an indication that someone will not marry, it is probably because they think the person is not capable of sustaining a relationship over time.

I don't have an ex, but before I met my husband I did have one no-strings-attached friend with benefits. Believe it or not we're still friends, just NOTHING PHYSICAL. Hubby knows all about him, and trusts us both. He trusts me, and that should be enough. Of course I trust him too. Mind you, if I did have exes, it wouldn't matter. My husband and I got together. He could be the first, he could be the fifteenth, just as long as we met. I am his fourth wife, and he's got lots of exes, but that's got nothing to do with us.

In some places and for some people, they like to marry first and if it doesn't work out they get a divorce and find another one. For me, I think that there really isn't a number, because the right one, if there really is one, can just be the next one. I'm with my first and only girlfriend for more than nine years now, and right now I believe I have the right one, but do I think about getting married yet? No, not yet, but I plan on it. I just want it to be perfect. Anyway, not the topic here. So, like you said, it doesn't really matter.

Yeah that is odd, as sometime it takes practice to achieve greatness. That being the case, how abut the many that marry over and over, surely they dated the partner. In reality, marrying the one and only person one dates is not necessarily a good idea for some. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, maybe just another show for entertainment purposes. lol

Zeroooooooooo

This is a good example of why I don't watch very much television... Part of the idea, though, behind "the more you date, the less likely you are to marry" would be that those who date a lot are dating the "wrong" sort (i.e., those not interested in marriage) and/or have unreasonable expectations of other people and, therefore, are unlikely to ever be satisfied enough with someone to be able to marry that person. However, at the same time, if you marry the first person you date and do so early, you are more likely to end up unhappy and/or divorced... especially if that person also is young and inexperienced. It is also unwise for an experienced person to marry an inexperienced person; it generally doesn't work out well. Similar IQs and levels of educational attainment are important. Similar interests, of course, are important. And, despite all of the Cinderella-type fairy tales that are peddled, often similar socioeconomic status is important as well. People who are likely to marry and do so successfully recognize that (whether consciously or not) and tend to migrate toward people who meet those standards.

I think that they are seeing it as if you have been in so many relationships then no matter who you date you will always find something you do not like about it and end the relationship. Usually they say when you have been in so many relationships you are not the type of person to make a commitment or settle down. I am not saying I agree but I am not this way. I have been in two serious relationships my whole life and the main majority of my ex's were from when I was in middle school. That was only because I did not care to have a boyfriend so losing them was easy and never caused pain. Now I get attached easily and hurt easily.

For me yes it's good to be just watch because there some one get lose to it.

I think this number would be a closely guarded secret. I know that for myself, this number I would take to my grave. Maybe I'd even confuse myself on what the number really is because of not thinking and talking about it. Maybe in some conservative cultures, this thinking of not marrying because of a high number is still true. But I think it's silly. When the one is found, it doesn't matter how many was before him/her.

MARRIAGE, is not something that can be eaten and once it hurts your tongue you can throw it away. What i mean is marriage is a really serious matter. Of course, we should pick the right one, that is why there is dating and putting yourself into a relationship to see if u are both compatible. Nobody tells us the exact number of guys that we should date! So as long as you are single and available, dont stop dating till you find the man for you!
