It's the one awkward question that always crops up whenever you start going out with someone new.
It normally comes blurting out just as you're about to get your Netflix and Chill on - 'So, how many people have you slept with before me?'
How many is too many? There's never a right answer to this f**king question. Or so we thought.
Well a recent survey attempted to answer this age-old cringer of a question and it asked respondents what they felt was the perfect number of sexual partners to have before settling down with "the one".
The ideal number is supposedly 10.
Extra-marital dating site IllicitEncounters.com, polled over 1,000 people to glean the results, and found that 37 per cent of respondents, both male and female, thought that between eight and 12 was the perfect amount.
The next most popular magic number was six, followed by less than four.
Less than 15% of people wanted a new partner to have slept with more than 11 people.
So, in conclusion, whenever you're on your next date, even if you've slept with 100 people, the answer is '10'. Remember that.
