    This guy and I have liked each other year. There was sort of a he said, she said game, and both of our feelings got hurt. Things have been really akward between us this semester because of this..I never see him much anymore..but today I passed him..I was spacing out and out of the corner of my eye, saw someone totally check me out. After they had passed, I looked to see who it was and it was my crush...He looked really bummed and pissed and refused to look back at me. Obviously I felt really bad, considering that was one of my few chances to show that I want to start over...Do you think I'm reading into this too much? :( btw we're both in college...pathetic I know :/ lol!

I dated one of her good friends 4 months after she rejected me think that messed up my chances with her?

Not so casual

Posted Mon, Aug 17, 2009
POST A COMMENT »
Apparently, we Canadians aren't big fans of casual sex. A recent Lavalife/Durex survey about the sex lives of Canadians cited a study published by Dr. David P. Schmitt of Bradley University of Illinois, which ranked Canada at No. 10 on the promiscuity list. Apparently, when it comes to one-night stands, the U.K. tops the list, followed by Germany and the Netherlands.

Of course, toss some money at us and we Canadians sure change our tune. According to the Lavalife/Durex survey, which asked 1,000 Canadians about their sex lives, 79% said they'd have sex with a stranger for a million bucks while 50% said they'd allow their partner to make the same deal.

Other findings:
70% said they'd be willing to try anything once
Almost 37% say they masturbate daily
42% do it a couple of times a week
Almost 13% masturbate on a monthly basis.
45% of single Canadians wait three to four dates before having sex, 34% wait until date 2 and 20% wait a month, minimum
42% say a stranger is the best candidate for a threesome while 24% prefer to ask a friend.
28% don't like threesomes.

Share your best (and worst) one-night stand stories.

    How casual is "casual" sex, when it is usally "causal sex" the cause which leads to diseases that are deadly. Wear yer rubbers might not work. Dental damns sound so...well..damned. So best to be less casual and get to know the person above the shoulders for awhile before any boat ride.Guess casual sex isnt sexy or romantic. Was it ever? Love means never having to say you had casual sex with your dog who may be a partner all to ready to do the nasty to hasty. Hey Granma's can be sexy, but wait for a couple dates before you put on your rubber ducky.

    It figures that this study was done in the States(the kings of stereotypers and generallizations). Canadians are just as horny as any other country. Casual sex is alive and well in Canada( just check the Ashley Maddison or Benaughty websites) When I got divorced back in the nineties, every date was sex on the first date. Sex with someone you know well is more satisfing,but when you are hungry, you don't turn down the peanutbutter sandwich to wait for the Fillet Mignon. As for the Million dollars? I don't even need that much,1000 will do it (need the money) lol. For a million, I would pull a Tom Greene and do a dead moose.

    If you take in the fact 60% streach the truth and 45% would not tell you their deepest fantisy's sort of renders this information usless. All I say is have a great time, let down your inabitions and go for it. Great sex and Good loven everyone.

    I've never had casual sex (when I was younger, only "bad girls" had casual sex) but Iooking back, it's one of those things I wish I had done at least once. Oh, to be 20 again! Clearly, I should have spent more time in the UK.

    Demvamp..we like 3 sum but in two couples situation, to be fare for both of us..lol..so you should join us if you are married..lol 3 or 4 sum between married couples is more fun then being gay or lez. Cheating is bad and is the game of Cowards and sick in mind people.
