Look, when it really comes down to it at the end of the day MOST guys would like to find that ONE female who they love.
But here's the thing. I've been with plenty of women where I LOVED their personality and damn near everything about them, but the sex was terrible. One girl, for example, wouldn't let me go down on her (I love doing that) AND she wouldn't kiss with tongue (which I thought was weird).
Being sexually compatiable and liking the same thing is super important.
Not only that, by having multiple sex partners (short term sexual relationships, I should say) you are able to get a better understanding of what kind of characteristics you really like in a girl - you start to understand what you like, what you don't like, the warning signs of a bad relationship, the absolute deal breakers, and so on.
I'm 28 now. If I had married the girl I loved at 23 and settled down and gotten married, I would never have known what I do now. I wouldn't have known that I enjoy BDSM, I wouldn't have had the very fun experiences of having a threesome or of role playing with very kinky girls, which are experiences I attribute for helping make who I am today. I wouldn't have known how great it is to have sex with a black girl (I'm white and for a long time thought I was unattracted - turns out I am NOT unattracted). I wouldn't have changed my beauty standards (had sex with women who were heavier than I normally would and found out it was an amazing experience and a LOT of fun). I wouldn't have had sex with different girls in different countries.
At this point - at 28 - I feel like, because I have had an enriching, diverse array of sexual experiences that have helped me understand what I like in the bedroom and what I like outside of the bedroom (personality-wise) I feel very comfortable at this point making a solid decision in the future.
I feel like, when I meet the love of my life at this point, I'll KNOW it for certain. There won't be all of those doubts in my head of, "I could have done this with that girl, I could have don this with another girl."
There was a study I read recently where most older men regret not having more sex with a wider array of women, while women - on the other hand - seem to regret who they lost their virginity to and the amount of sexual partners they've had.
For men, it really is a big deal to feel like you're missing out on a rich amount of sexual experiences. So, allowing yourself to experiment over the course of a few years isn't just about saying "fuck love!" and "sowing your oats" it's about LEARNING.
Think of it like this - some people travel all over the world until they find that ONE town that just sticks with them. They say to themselves, "This town has everything I love - it has the view, it has the people, I feel calm here."
But, if someone DOESN'T travel they don't know it when they see that perfect town and if they settled down in the town they're in WITHOUT traveling, they will always wonder what else is out there - the places they could of gone.
So I say - live for a while to gain experiences, see what's out there, discover what you like and what you don't like, broaden your horizons, so that when you get a little older with a little more experience you will absolutely positively KNOW that the girl you fall in love with is the one that has everything you want in a girl, and you will not feel scared or doubtful to settle down with her, because you've seen and experienced what the world has to offer, and you know that this girl is the best of all those experiences.
