Keeping the sexually-obsessed threads trend alive, I’d like to ask: how long was your longest “dry spell”? That is, how long was your longest time period without sex (birth to loss of virginity doesn’t count)? Here’s my story: lost my virginity to high-school sweetheart at age 17. Went to college #1 and, figuring I had nothing to lose, had lots o’ sex. The last time was probably around Spring '91. Then I decided to get back into abstinence and didn’t have any sex until I married Mrs. Rastahomie (Spring '97). So my longest “dry spell” is around 6 years to the day. What’s yours? ---

My longest dry spell is beginning. I’m not going to get to have sex until Thanksgiving or Christmas, if that. Damnit. Not that sex is as important as seeing her beautiful smile… quietgirl, I pine for you. ---

My longest stretch was about 16 months. It’s not that I wasn’t getting _any_ sex, it’s just that I wasn’t having sex with anyone new. I was seeing my ex sporadically. That’s similar to a dry spell. As of right now, I have not bedded a woman for about seven months. This has been my longest dry spell. I’m not at all frustrated because I have not been seeking anyone. Applications and résumés are welcome, but no response will be given for quite some time. moo ---

I’m in the middle of it, and don;t want to discuss it. You know, kinda like a ball player doesn’t want to discuss his slump. Asshole, now I’m upset. ---

In high school sometime between senior summer and senior year. For about 9 months it just wasn’t worth pursuing. Girls seemed kinda shallow and I didn’t want them. When I started college, however, I started buying the economy sized condom packs! Now **that’s** a freshman dominance thing!
