I Hope My Body Count Doesn’t Ruin My Relationship

I’m 23, and I’ve had lots of boyfriends. All actual relationships that didn’t last, but I kept going into relationships once one ends till I decided to take a step back. Now, before you say it was for money, I was not dependent on anyone because I used to get money from my parents, and when I got old enough to work, I started working and earning. I met a few men, and I found out one has good intentions. Honestly, I never thought much of it that men are invested in knowing how many men a lady has been with till I met this guy.

We dated, but I wasn’t plain about the whole thing because he was the first guy to talk about this issue with me. I decided to have the conversation about it. I came out clean and let him know that I’m not proud of it and I’ve left that life of jumping from one relationship to another. And sincerely speaking, not once did I cheat on this man because I love him so much. We already had our lives planned out before this conversation. Now he’s saying we should take things slow so he can get to know me better.

I pray I don’t lose him, not because of the body count but because I truly love him. I’ll understand if he decides to leave, but I pray it doesn’t get to that. He might not see this, but just in case, baby, I’m sorry we’re here. I’d do anything to prove that I’m not one to cheat or bounce into relationships every time. One year is now down the drain, and we’re back to getting to know each other afresh. High numbers are nothing to be proud of, so ladies, let’s do better. I feel terrible, and I miss us.
