Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

Tons!

Actually, I had two major relationships, lasting over a year each, before DH, and then lots of '2 monthers'...that seems to be the definitive amount of time for me. If it's not working in 2 months, it's not gonna work at all!!! Funnily enough, all of my long-term relationships have been long-distance for a good chunk of time at one point or another. Maybe absence does make the heart grow fonder...

If the question is just "date" than it would be more than I could count. Relationship wise it would be 4 long term relationships.

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

FH is the only guy I've dated longer than a year. All the others were under 7 months. The running joke was that first guy who made it to the year was the one I was going to marry, and it came true!

But I had 4 'serious' boyfriends before FH and several others I dated.

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

EGads, I had more dates that I can even remember

As for 'serious' relationships before DH, I probably can consider 4 of them such. Some others might have lasted a months at a clip but truly did not become on any level a 'relationship'

Hey, what can I say? It took kissing a lot of frogs to meet my prince

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

Depends... do you mean serious relationships or also people you casually dated?

I was with my HS boyfriend since I was 17 and then moved right on to my DH at 23 so there wasn't much time for dating.

The people I "dated" in HS before my Ex, I wouldn't even consider worth mentioning!

Lots and lots of dates, one serious boyfriend who lasted the 4 years of college. DH came around soon after (or during ).

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

I went on a few dates here and there, but only had one "real" relationship before FH. Thank goodness I got out of that one. Makes me realize how what I have now is truly special.

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

oh my . . . ummm, definitely in the "8+" category . . . i really couldn't count.

although if you are talking about SERIOUS relationships, the number drops down to about 5 or so. . . . And my FH is the best of them all . . . by far!!!

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

I had one major relationship that lasted two years. I had three relationships (before the two year one) that lasted under six months each and had 4 or 5 guys that I dated after the two year relationship...nothing serious just dated and had fun...then FH came along and I lost their numbers

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

I guess I am in the minority. My dh was my first boyfriend! I met him when I just turned 17 years old and he was 19. He had girlfriends before me though, nothing serious.

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

I dated 2 "summer relationships" and two long term until I discovered my DH was really "more than a friend". I didnt want to date him at all, I was afraid it would ruin our friendship. Grandma told me "Your gonna marry him" and she was 100% right!

I was a pro at 2-3 months relationships, so I'm in the 8+ category for sure.

Re: How many people did you date before your f/d/w/h?

I had three serious bfs beforehand, all lasting over a year. The third was saving up to buy me an engagement ring, but I met DH while I was with him and ended up breaking up with him for DH . I'm so horrible.

ETA: I had lots of short relationships between the three serious bfs, so I fall into the 8+, I guess, but if you only count serious relationships, then it's 2-3
