Is There Such a Thing as Too Many Relationships?

We’re all searching for The One but would you be put off by someone with a long list of ex’s trailing behind them?

With every relationship comes new experiences and new lessons learned but does the end of it come with plenty of judgement too?

Each person is different and we’ve all had a different number of relationships but the question is, is there such a thing as too many and what does your number say about you?

Kerry Katona has recently announced that she will be getting married for the third time which will come with plenty of stigma.

The usual questions of how will she make it work this time if it hasn’t worked before, and why did her previous marriages break up will no doubt be the questions on people’s lips.

Kirk Norcross is another celebrity to hit the news this week as he has been revealing details about his relationships.

Although it’s not every man that has slept with 1,000 women, like Kirk, would you judge someone on the number of their past relationships?

Admittedly, we all do it, how else are we meant to get a feeling of whether they’re boyfriend material or not? But we all know that we shouldn’t.

It’s about the person and despite there being a stigma attached to those who’ve had numerous relationships they’ll have also learned many valuable lessons.

Not only this, but each relationship will have allowed them to explore what they want from a relationship and have them being surer of themselves.

Of course, different circumstances breed different reasons for numerous failed relationships.

You obviously have to question why their past relationships have failed and if they’re the reason for them coming to a bitter end time and time again.

It doesn’t hurt to do a bit of research, if you’re suspicious of why the guy you’re into has had 3 girlfriends in the last 6 months then ask around.

Asking his ex’s directly isn’t always the best course of action, so if you know anyone in common with them then get the 411 from them.

If not, Facebook and Twitter have a backlog of information available at a few clicks. Browse their profile and see if you find anything.

You could also ask his mates, they’re most likely going to put it to you straight and at least then you’re not going to get some kind of dramatized version like the sort gossipy girls like to give.

At the end of the day, your love interest having quite a few failed relationships isn’t the end of the world and isn’t always a bad thing, just do your research before you become the next woman on his list!
