"Excellent news! I gave Lauren a call last night and somehow talked her into going out with me again. Never underestimate the power of a giant seafood platter. It&amp;amp;#8217;s nice having something to look forward to, you know? The great thing about being a dating blogger is my friends are always coming to me with all kinds of juicy stories about their love lives. Today&amp;amp;#8217;s delectable morsel is from a girlfriend who has been dating a new dude for two months. They became intimate a few weeks ago, and apparently he&amp;amp;#8217;s very experienced in the bedroom, which should be a good thing&amp;amp;#133;I got a haircut--short on the sides, longer on top. Whaddya think? I know you like it short.&amp;amp;#133;But she can&amp;amp;#8217;t help but wonder where he picked up his tricks. Was it a wise older neighbor who hired him to clean her pool and then greeted him wearing nothing but a slinky negligee? Or was it a sassy co-ed he met freshman year who snuck him into her sorority for one-on-one anatomy lessons? (OK, maybe I&amp;amp;#8217;m the one who came up with those situations, but her imagination is almost as vivid.) My advice to her was simple: don&amp;amp;#8217;t ask a question if you don&amp;amp;#8217;t want to know the answer. As long as they&amp;amp;#8217;re using protection and he&amp;amp;#8217;s respectful of her limits, at this stage of the game she doesn&amp;amp;#8217;t have a right to interrogate him. And what&amp;amp;#8217;s the point? Do you really want to know that much about his sexual history? Would you be comfortable telling him about yours? Personally, I don&amp;amp;#8217;t see a lot of value in rehashing the past with whoever I&amp;amp;#8217;m currently dating. I&amp;amp;#8217;m not a virgin, and quite frankly I wouldn&amp;amp;#8217;t want to date one. Let&amp;amp;#8217;s leave it at that. But maybe I should be more curious. How soon do you tell a new flame about his predecessors? How much do you reveal? Has a guy ever told you something about his sexual history that freaked you out? Do you have any secrets you would never tell a guy, even your husband? Take advantage of your anonymity and tell us! I could obviously use the titillation. P.S. What&amp;#x27;s the most outrageous thing you&amp;#x27;ve ever said in bed? (Read the comments--they&amp;#x27;re hilarious!) What&amp;#x27;s your favorite getting-it-on music?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
