I am currently sort of in an LTR, but I used to have between 2 and 3 playes over time.
1. How many dates before sex came into the picture?
Some plates were sex on the same night we met, other plates took 1 to 3 dates. I usually try to get them over to my place really early on.
2. How did you meet your plates?
I met them literally everywhere. I met them through mutual friends, at a hostel, dancing school, the place I worked as a volunteer barkeeper. With everything in life, the place to meet new plates is wherever you are.
3. How long on average does your plates last?
My plates usually last between 1 to 2 weeks and 2 months. That is usually the point where I lose interest in them or they get feelings. Sometimes having feelings isn't bad if you're looking for love, but if you're looking for just poon, get rid of em because they'll get jealous.
My current LTR girl is different, I fell pretty hard for her, she for me, and voila, LTR.
