LUCKY for some!
It seems that people who have had 13 سابق sexual partners make the best lovers.
Any fewer, and their lack of experience is likely to lead to an awkward fumble, while any more suggests they see each conquest as just another notch on the bedpost.
In a survey of 1,000 men and 1,000 امرأة, 52 per cent felt 13 former flames was the ideal number, في حين 73 per cent said someone with 18 or more was a turn-off because it made them feel like just an addition to the list.
And men are more likely to sleep with someone on a first date, مع 77 per cent saying they would, compared to just 39 per cent of women.
The survey was carried out by illicitencounters.com, which describes itself as a dating website for married people.
