If it finishes before I do, I’ll let you know.

Since I figure that the time before my “first time” doesn’t really count; I went 2 years, tops.

In those old Vietnam War movies they always show the GIs having a great time in the Saigon bars. All we had were camel caravans and religiously repressed women wrapped in black. No contest.

Warren ZevonI remember asking what people thought ‘sex’ was along time back & no two people came up with the same answer.
The smart-ass answer is 19 (so I was a late bloomer). The answer you’re looking for is: I was intentionally (and quite happily) celibate for three years.

this is great to know I am not the only one who waited so long. 19 I was a virgin when I married 6 weeks after each child and other than that a couple of days.
I got married in Feb. 1997 and had sex w/him that night and not again until July 1998! That’s 17 months w/no sex, cuddling, nothin! I also didn’t have sex from 1-27-99 to 11-13-99. That wasn’t my choice though… that was doctors orders. I was pregnant w/my son until 9-1 and then had to wait 6 weeks before I could have sex. Ever since I got together w/my boyfriend I only go 1-2 days w/out (which still sucks because I’m horny all the time!)
I didn’t lose my virginity until I was 17 years, 8 months and 18 days old. The whole experience sucked… it took about 5 minutes, hurt like a bitch, and I bled. Had a great time, thanks. :rolleyes:

The longest time I have gone without sex was the 18 years between birth and my first time. Other than that, the longest drought I’ve had is the current one. One year and about five months. I’d love to give one of those “…twelve days, eight hours, thirty-seven minutes…” responses, but I can’t remember the exact date. If I’d known it was going to be the last time, I’d have kept better track.
Heck is where you go when you don’t believe in Gosh.
Not counting the time before I lost my virginity, I’d say…almost two years.
The second longest? About a year.
You say “cheesy” like that’s a BAD thing.
I’ve had at least 2 2 year dry spells, as well as a 1 year and at least a couple 6 months. I could probably look on a calendar of the last 3 years and point out every date that I have had sex. Honestly, the only down side of being single. I’m not even gonna touch the virginity thing.
Gabba Gabba, We accept you, we accept you, one of us.
Well, I was a virgin when I got married at 22. We had sex once every other month or so for a year, then I went 6 years without. Divorced him.
My current SO is a horny lil bugger. So I think the longest I’ve gone without since my divorce is two weeks (that was only because I had pneumonia then he got a chest cold right after - hacking during sex is not really attractive).
Sigh. I won last time, and I’d probably win again.
Catrandom, who isn’t talking.
Well, since we’re all sharing…
21 years and 361 days (upon which I lost my virginity). Since then, probably around a month or so when I was going through a depression. Since getting married, maybe, um…10 days or so. (Winter is a slow time for us).
10 years and counting. Thank God for ‘self-love’.
Been a pretty long dry spell currently, damn you for bringing it up.
I’d say its been about 6 and a half months, this is the longest since virginity.
Ye gads! Someone ought to package up this thread and mail it to the bone-headed journalists what keep goin’ on about our sex-obsessed culture . . .

20 and a half years from birth 'til the first time. Had a couple of 4 - 6 week dry spells during my first marriage. Since marrying my second husband 14 years ago the longest I’ve gone without is 7 1/2 months. That was while he was away for Desert Storm. There were also 3 other 6 month at-sea periods and numerous shorter ones. When he is in port the longest we’ve ever gone without it is 4 or 5 days. That’s only happened once or twice, when one of us was sick or something. We usually have sex every day, twice (or sometimes 3 times) on the weekends. Do I win?
