Are you a virgin?
girl: no
Goodbye, next...
lol, just kidding.
This might be a tough decision for most. For me it depends on the situation and what you are looking for. Are you looking for a friend, a girlfriend a wife? Your standards are going to be different for each. If the girl has had a very promiscuous past but was willing to let it all go to be with me.
I'm willing to overlook it, but it is definitely easier and safer to be with someone who hasn't had any sexual encounters.
I look at it as a girl like unto a pond, at first its clear, clean, and pure. If one day a factory opened up and dumped impurities into the pond, no matter how much you clean the water the stench will always be their.
The only way for it to be pure again is for the water to be completely changed out and for the factory to leave. For me that's one of my criteria for marriage. A change of heart on the girls part and to leave the past behind.
Or you can just always screen for virgins and be upfront about marriage and there you go, live happily ever after. This is actually normal in india for marriages to be arranged, a Indian man would work until he is successful having a house and the ability to care for a family.
Then he would would call his parents to find him a wife for him. The parents after their search sends the son several letters with a picture and description of several ladies. Once he has chosen, the lady and son are arranged to meet then marriage ceremonies would begin after that.
