writes:I have been dating the same guy for 18 months now and he is a great guy. Before this relationship I had been in several others (although not as long) and had been sexually active, but my boyfriend was a virgin when I started seeing him and I have been the only person he has ever been with.Is it possible for a REGULAR guy to remain in love with someone when he has never "experienced anyone else"? Once, when we had been together about 9 months, we broke up for a short time because he thought he wanted to "see what else was on the market". He quickly came back to me saying that he'd changed his mind and realized how much he loved me and it hasn't been an issue since -- I know for a fact that during that time he did not sleep with anyone else. Do you think this nasty problem will rear it's head again, and what should I do? Is there anything I CAN do?

 Im in the same situation as you except the roles are reversed, i am my girlfriends first real boyfriend, and i have had several girlfriends before her.
This isnt much of a problem, i had to teach her essentially what its like to be in a relationship, and occasionally i wish she had prior experience so that our relationship would be stronger.
But so long as you care for one another things should be ok.
I sometimes think "she doesnt know what love is" as she hasn't experienced heart break and stuff, but love comes from trust and being with someone you care about.
I dont think the problem will rear its head again, and there isnt nothing you can do about it (we cant control peoples feelings sadly), but if it does rear its head again just be supportive, and if you do love him, let him know you will be there for him afterwards.
