Booty Call Calendar – One Year Late
I received an email the other day.
Dear David. We hooked up last year. It was fun. Call me if you’re unattached and we’ll catch up. I miss having a good man around.
Wait a sec – I hooked up with this woman a year ago? I must have been between lovers, because I haven’t done a one-night stand in ages. (Despite what Dad’s House readers who ask “where’s the romance?” like to believe.)
I searched through old emails, found her picture, and sure enough – I immediately recalled a night of crazy couch sex.
But why was she emailing me now?
I remembered telling her shortly after that night that I didn’t think we were a match. There simply wasn’t enough chemistry to keep things going between us.
Fast forward a year later to this email.
Booty is booty, right? I mean, if a former lover jumps back into your life, you happily jump back into bed together.
Er… maybe I would have done that a year or two ago. Not now. I prefer being with one woman long term, whether we’re dating or simply lovers. Tantric sex aside, a roll in the hay is far better when there’s a connection. The sex is safer, too.
I wonder who will text me for booty a year from now.

Here I am – finding the great part of this – She must have found that night fulfilling as she remembered you a year later – and that is flattering, no? Perhaps she felt that time had passed, she is a bit different, and the timing might be more right?
Better late than never???

It amazes me how many sex partners people have had. Average for men is said to be 7, for women 8.6 (guess the .6 is that guy w/ the really small penis?). Yet, it seems those numbers are low -compared to what I read on blogs.
So, I am curious, what’s the number, for real?

If those figures that Paula quote are accurate, I don’t know what they’re based on, or where they come from. I suspect they are NOT accurate. Remember the expression “Believe nothing you hear, and only half of what you see?” I’d say the same is true for many reports quoting stats on almost anything. Facts & figures are easy to mess with; “samples” are not representative, and some things simply don’t add up.
Only 7 partners per man? Highly unrealistic given the divorce rates in this country, and given that most adults crave sexual contact – with or without relationship, and that allows for plenty of hook-up time between subsequent marriages. Likewise, the 8.6 figure for women. (Guess it’s like that 2.5 kids per household?)
In my experience of our planet (and not just Planet Fred), I’d multiply those “averages” by 10. Or more.

“a roll in the hay is far better when there’s a connection. The sex is safer, too.
Better is a very relative term. But, safe sex is safe whenever people are practicing safe sex, whether for a one-nighter or long-term.
As for how many partners — who cares? Unless it’s a contest …

I don’t know about averages, but I’ve had over a hundred. And there weren’t no contest!
So I think BLW’s planet plan for multiplying averages by ten is more likely correct. ;)
Truly, though ~ most men and women I’ve known have had between five and twenty partners.

Timing is everything. You never know. Maybe things have changed.
It wouldn’t hurt to meet for dinner or something….

I put on my journalistic research hat (complete with veil and plumage), but I don’t have any good stats (or bad) on average number of sex partners. I did find a few juicy tidbits about O-O-Oh-klahoma, and have a quick-and-dirty method of estimating past paramours. Care to weigh back in with (in)decent data, Dads?

Wow, I guess I’ve missed a whole lot of romps in my day. Or, maybe not, 25 years later & we still rock the house (no need for condoms, either).
Y’all have fun, just be safe ;-)

Good for you, David! I agree that a connection makes sex MUCH better. And the more you have it with ONE person the better the two of you can be together.
I’m with the others though, maybe a revisit with the woman would be worth checking out?

So it’s the morning after my glorious post on how to handle caulk.
How are you feeling ?

Kat – yes safe sex is safe when all are practicing. But the more partners you have, the more chance you’ll run into someone who had unsafe sex with a partner of theirs.
T – dinner? She wants to get laid. How about just drinks.
Paula – don’t rub it in! I’d rather be with one woman getting laid every night, than changing partners and going through dry spells every now and then.

I think it’s like American Pie – whatever a man tells you, divide by 3 and whatever a woman tells you, multiply by 3.
When I saw the headline I thought this blog would be about you hooking up with a woman and agreeing that if neither of you were seeing someone in a year, you’d give it another go. So, unbeknownst to you, she set up her Outlook to automatically e-mail you in a year. But it’s actually a mistake as she got in a relationship 6 months ago and is happily “off the market,” but since so much time had elapsed since she set up her Outlook originally, she has NO IDEA that she just sent you that e-mail.
Yeah, I imagined all that in .5 seconds. And, IMO, it would be pretty awesome if it were true.

Good for you for knowing what you want and don’t want and sticking with it. And for practicing safe sex.
Having an annual adult play date is an interesting idea, though.
Honey’s story is soooo funny. LOL.

I’ve never had that enviable problem! :-) I sometimes get people contacting me after years to bitch about some injustice I don’t remember or some such crap. I’m always wary when someone calls me after a long time. They either want money or they want to kill me! HA :-)
