I was wondering how everyone feels about the expression of sowing wild oats so to speak. Do you think everyone needs a crazy period where they date and experiment with a lot of different people, or are some people relationship people who feel perfectly happy and content being with only one or two people in their entire lives? Can a person who hasn't sowed wild oats be happy to settle down with someone who has? What are your experiences and what do you think? Those of you who are married, did you date a lot before getting married? Thanks...just something I've been thinking about!
I went a little crazy with it last summer/fall. I don't think it's for everyone, so I wouldn't hold it against a partner if he hadn't had a wild period.

I wouldn't hold it against him if he hadn't, but I worry if a guy hasn't really had that wild period that he might be unhappy in the long run always being in a relationship.
There are many kinds of people and attitudes. Some will want to, some won't. Some won't when young, but do the wild thing later in life, usually after a divorce. I don't think you can generalize much, other than to say that most people probably do most of their experimentation when younger.
Yeah, seems like some people, including my self, need to "get it out of our systems", others do not. I'm not really a "no regrets" kind of guy, but I've been in relationships when I was in my early 20's and remember being like, "WTF am i doing..."
I envy those that don't feel the need, on some level. But at the same time, I probably would have married that girl back when I was 22 and knowing how she is now, I would have been miserable.
I try to look inwards and wonder why I feel the need. Is it a self confidence thing? The high of meeting new women? Maybe a little of both. My wild days have waned, I don't feel the need as much, but its still there, although more easily repressed haha.
I think it's great either way. But don't do so when married.
doing it while married can be extremely fun, especially if both are sowing theirs at the same time.
