.... how many previous lovers you have had, what he really wants is to make a list of them so he can throw them in your face to belittle you the first chance he gets when things turn rough for him.

I have to say, I've told my "number" to every guy I've dated, and not one of them has done that. But then again, it's a pretty low number.

I got the same question from my last girlfriend, so it isn't just a male thing.
