Not Enough Sex?
If you were promiscuous as a teenager, how can you be more discriminating as an adult?

She was talking really fast and I could feel her excitement. "Last night we had a long talk about sex, about what we like and don't like, fantasies and stuff like that. Then he asked me if I wanted to have sex."

"I burst out laughing and said no, I'm not ready and I wasn't afraid to tell him."

"Are you attracted to him?" I asked.
