writes: Hi Im 18. I have had 10 sexual partners in my life so far. But this is a total over a 4 year period. Is this considered promiscuous behavior? I don't dress provacatively, nor do I engage in a relationship with more than one person at a time. Im attractive and maybe I give myself up too easily at times, but men tend to dump me. I'm feeling odd about that number as I think about more and more.

reader, anonymous, writes (11 December 2010): People can have had more partners than you in the span of time you noted, and though generally considered promiscuous, have all their morals in the right place. Being "promiscuous" does not make you a bad or less worthy person. It also does not mean you have no self- control. In some cases it does, but every one and every life is different.
But, because you noted that your conscience is grating at you, it is time now to start afresh and no longer dwell in the behaviours of your past self. Try as best you can to refrain from any activity that causes you guilt. You can be stronger, but don't beat yourself up for your own perceived weakness. Don't think it's all on you if ever you get "dumped". You can make changes; try to stay optimistic.

never dwell on your past.. and never label yourself.
i know people that have slept with a lot more people than this...... dont be ashamed. if you feel this is not you and you have ignored your morals... then just learn from it.
never regret things you have been through or that you have done because they make you who you are and make you a stronger person , you may not be happy with this but there is nuthing you can do now its in your past
you can always start fresh, its never to late.
dont dwell on your past hun..... your only human.. noone is perfect
