This person has dated various people, but rather early on both people have realized that they are not for each other. The person is still a virgin- due both to religious morals as well as not having found the right person yet.

The person otherwise has many friends- including long close friendships of over 8 years. The person gets along well with his/her family, has a successful career, many hobbies and interests, and has a very healthy attitude towards life. Not to mention the person lacks a criminal record and is debt-free.

I hope this is completely hypothetical since it's unnerving to think that a potential girlfriend of mine would do both a background and a credit check on me. Not that I have anyhitng to worry about of course.

But yes, someone who has never been in a serious relationship has something wrong with them. Look at the signs. I went out with a girl who had a bunch of boyfriends- she had alot for a reason, she was smokin', yet she was nuts.

Without re-opening the cans of worms lying around,

I'd have to meet the person. If they seemed fairly "normal" and were interesting and attractive, I'd be interested. If they were ok, but not my cup of tea, I would say not thanks, but not think that they're lame. Sounds like a fairly average person except for the sex. I wouldn't let the virgin thing turn me off, but I'd still need the compatibility to turn me on.

/Not like that...

Insecurity and a need for self-validation via a message board comes across as lame.

The study you site is 15 years old, and is dubious, at best. However, here are a couple of sites (Mayo Clinic and Harvard School of Public Health, fairly reputable sources) that explain that drinking alcohol in moderation can have health benefits:

http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/alcohol/SC00024

http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritio...e/alcohol.html

As these sites show, while it's not healthy to go out every night and drink 20 beers, get sloshed and throw up, alcohol in moderation can add to a healthy regimen.

It seems you're twisting medical data to support your opinion, and it's not working.

Hmmmm....well that's a more interesting question. I think someone who has never been in a long term relationship may go through more learning if you date them so that would be something to deal with, but if the person was great I probably wouldn't even think twice about it.

And plus, any man without a criminal record will ALWAYS get a second look from me....LOL. :p

I would hope that most men you date wouldn't have a criminal record! (Unless of course it's something minor like being arrested for being publicly drunk when you were 18.)

And you've got to remember to tell him that while you 'except' him as he is you'll still pray that he will realize the error of his ways.

Loudly... in front of him... instead of sex.
