Girlfriends sexual past
I’ve been in a relationship with my girlfriend for six months. She’s amazing—kind, caring, and beautiful inside and out. The only thing I’m struggling with is her sexual past, and it’s making me question whether I can continue the relationship.
She’s 22, which is two years younger than me. After breaking up with her ex, she went through a party phase where she had casual sex fairly regularly. She told me she’s had 12 sexual partners (not including oral sex).
I’m not exactly a saint myself—I had six sexual partners before we got together. Still, I was surprised to hear her number because she doesn’t seem like the type of person who would sleep around.
I know her past happened before we met, and she hasn’t done anything to betray my trust. But I can’t seem to stop thinking about it, and it’s making me feel sick thinking about it.
Is this a valid reason to end an otherwise great relationship, or is this something I should try to work through instead?
