In college, I was the girl who embraced her sexuality and enjoyed a vibrant social life. You know the type—steady boyfriends for short stints, and a wild side that led to numerous adventures. While I lost count of my partners, it was around twenty. The number of intimate encounters? Let’s just say it was high enough that I’ve stopped keeping track. But honestly, I had a blast, and if you’re thinking of shaming me, save it. I have just one regret: not hooking up with two friends I’m still close to. We often joke about it, reminiscing about our youthful days.
I lived in a dorm filled with fellow misfits—drama kids, artists, and all sorts of unique personalities. Remarkably, there was no judgment about my lifestyle. Most people knew I was quite the participant in the dating scene, but it was all in good fun. We even had this game where we would connect dorm mates based on their romantic entanglements, similar to the “six degrees of Kevin Bacon,” but with a twist. The funniest part? If you could connect someone to this guy, Alex, you were considered well-connected, as he had been with nearly everyone.
Living Life to the Fullest
I embraced every experience, even pulling four “v-cards.” I once left a cheeky message on my boyfriend’s mirror, hinting at my adventurous spirit. Our dorm parties frequently turned into wild make-out sessions, and I even had multiple threesomes (though I was furious to find out one partner was engaged—definitely a lesson learned). If you’ve seen Clerks, then you know the character who shouts, “Try not to suck any dick on your way through the parking lot!”—that was me.
Throughout my escapades, I practiced safe sex diligently, never contracting an STD or facing an unplanned pregnancy. I spent five years (including my first year of grad school) enjoying carefree, exhilarating encounters. I wore school uniforms, experimented with toys, and even dabbled in some light bondage. I regret not hooking up with an English guy I had my eye on—talk about a missed opportunity!
Having grown up in a strict Catholic environment where sex was painted as sinful, I was ready to explore my sexuality once I’d left that world behind. I found friends who were equally open-minded, and in that supportive environment, I never faced any shame for my choices. They were either as adventurous as I was or wanted to be, and our parties were always a blast.
Finding Stability and Happiness
After my college escapades, I settled down when I met my husband in grad school. We’ve been together ever since, and I’ve never strayed. All those experiences made me quite skilled in the bedroom—he certainly appreciates that! However, what I truly miss is the sense of freedom and exploration from my youth, not necessarily the act of being promiscuous. I remember those moments sitting in the dorm hallways, connecting friends through their romantic histories.
Now, in my forties, I’m content and in love with a wonderful partner who knows me deeply. The thrill of being young was exhilarating, but I cherish the stability and joy that comes with lasting love. The excitement of new experiences has transformed into a different kind of passion—one that brings joy in every little moment.
In retrospect, I’m grateful for my past. Those thrilling encounters were part of my journey, and while they were fun, I now appreciate the deeper connection I have with my husband. I love being in love, and that’s what truly matters.
