You know, I think part of promiscuity is being an animal.
There's all the BPD thing, the acting out thing, the psychological thing, but I really do think that some of it is just plain part of life on this planet.
For one thing, it can feel really good. It's nice to feel beautiful and desirable. Maybe you didn't feel that way in these encounters, I don't know, but part of the reason I was as sexually active as I was was that.
ANy physically it can feel great.
And it can be fun, if it feels like fun.
And it can be part of exploring sexuality, and discovering how different men are different.
One of the other reasons I slept around as much as I did was it was a way of getting the physical closeness that I so very much needed.
I'm sorry you feel unloved. It's an awful feeling. I'm sorry to that I have to disgree about "the only one who loved me abused me physically". That isn't love, in my opinion.
I guess it's important to examine the reasons we do things, but name calling is plain not useful. I don't think you're a slut.
You know the "been there, one that" thing? Well, you could chalk this up to experience and get on with it. Your friends have their secrets, too.
