I met. That would be true. However, if I were asked that question I can honestly say I didn't have sex before I got married and that would be true. But I wonder if the guy would believe me? On the other hand I didn't date much and the first thing I always told a guy up front if you think going to a movie or dinner is going to get you to 3d base you better understand it ain't going to happen, period. That usually works for me. It weeds out the guys who are just looking to have fun at the woman's expense. I was able to find the right guy who shared the same morals I did. We have been married 32 yrs. However, I don't think a gentleman or a lady should ask about past relationships unless they bring it up first. If the 2 decide they want to have relations then the STD questions should be discussed.
