Trustworthy?

Hey everybody,
I've just started seeing this guy. I really like him, and we have fun sex and he's hot as anything. But from what I hear he's very sexually active.. Should i be worried about the fact that I hear he's had sex with over 20 girls and he's only 17? Also when I asked him about it he said it's only been about 6. But one of my best friends says that's not true. I told him I trusted him. I don't even really care how many girls he's had sex with, as long as he's not lieing. What should I do?

Hon, having "fun sex" is good and safe IF you're exclusive with the guy and both are clean. It seems that you're not exclusive and this guy could give you some nasty STDs or even AIDS. If you heard that he's been with over 20 girls and he's told you he's been with only 6 then you have to be worried about him giving you anything, meaning STDs. He's 17 and he's been with 6 girls, that means that you ARE sleeping with those 6 girls he slept with. Do you know if they're are clean or do they have STDs? This guy probably lies just to have "fun sex".

I'd say the real figure is somewhere in between both. He would have told you what he thought you wanted to here and the rumours about the higher figure are probably just that, you know how people talk.... especially stuff like that.

As to whether you trust him or not, trust your intuition. It depends what you want out of it, if you want something serious and this concerns you then it is something you need to get your head around. If you think he's just a fun guy to have a bit of fling or not-so-serious relationship, then what does it matter - you just might benefit from the experience :)

The past is the past and should be left there. As long as he's treating you well and with respect then just concentrate on the two of you, not the ghosts in the past.
