Why are so many guys obsessed with a woman’s body count? It’s as if he’s determining her value and worth as a potential partner based on her past sexual history which to me doesn’t make much sense. So why do guys care?

He wanted to date her and he wanted exclusivity in their relationship but only on her end. Because she had been with so many guys before him, he felt like he needed to catch up before he can actually call her his girlfriend. Now, she really liked him and she wanted to be with him so she was okay with that.

The problem is that he just wasn’t pulling girls at the rate that he thought he would be. So, she waited. Year after year, hoping that he would change his mind. They remained in this weird ambiguous place where they were dating but not dating. And all it did was breed more anger and resentment on his end because he wasn’t able to match her number. He cared about her, and he wanted to be with her but this was the thing that held them back from having a healthy and happy relationship.
