    How many hands have you held, sweaty palms and all? Walking across a campus, skating around a roller rink, treading waves of water . . .

    How many people have you kissed?
    Eskimo, butterfly, or otherwise.

    How many times has it been something more?



    And is it a wrongness if you can't remember all their names?

    I think a better question would be: "How many times have you had sex and not remembered the other person's name?"

    I won't go into numbers, but don't you guys keep a book for all these things? Because of this, I haven't forgotten any names, though there have been a few times where I didn't remember her name right off the bat.

    I then tell her I would remember her name, if I could check my list at home. :ramen:

    Hope they are all treasured moments. :)

    Nothing wrong with that.

    Honesty and memory rep!


    I'd be equally honest if I had the memory.

    Seriously, romantically? 3.

    If I forgot someone, they're not in the count. But: Names are easy. What else about them would it be wrong to forget?

    If you mean in a romantic sense (I have skated with numerous girls, both roller and ice, but just in a "Wanna skate with me?" sense with no serious intention whatsoever), then the answer is 2. And both of them belong to the same girl.

    Again, if you mean in a romantic sense (kissing my mother good-night, kissing uncounted numbers of people on the cheeks the way they do here in France, and other such things aside), 1.

    I have long since lost count. But always with the same girl.

    Oh, I remember her name all right. She has the same last name I do, but with a "Mrs." in front of it instead of a "Mr."

    Now, everyone, go ahead and flame me to your hearts' content. But we have been very happy together for about three decades now. So I'm not sure you can really argue that our approach has not been successful.
