tell trinity by trinity :: qnotes contributor Promiscuity: Can it make you too ripe ? Hey Trinity, My sexual appetite has been crazy lately. Is it so wrong to sleep with whomever I want? And, what's a healthy sex life anyway? Yours & Everyone’s, Chicago, IL Hey Yours & Everyone's, The difference between a healthy sex life and a hedonistic one usually happens around the full moon where even monks and nuns have to loosen their collars. Pro miscuity is not a new word, but it does get old. Sure, sex is grand, but the unreturned phone calls, texts, emails and/or late nights on the internet, in the streets or at the bars, plus constantly ducking social diseases, eventually turns quality to quantity and possible addiction. So, honey, for a healthier sex life remember, moderation, patience and a bit of abstinence now and then will keep you fresh from turning overly ripe. Dearest Trinity, I've been married five years and love my partner, but I've had a couple of affairs on the side. I'm not proud, but it happened.
