What's in a number?
Are you really bothered by that "number"? You know which one, the one guys add on to and girls minus from. Does it really have to define us? And if it does, what is the "right amount"? And most importantly, should you share this with your partner?
According to the video below, anything above three is too much. But for whom? And who decides?
I have always been very open about my number, but that doesn't mean everyone else has to. I got married very young and so my number is relatively low, or high. It's above three, so I must be a bad person, right?
Wrong. Your number should never define you. You are not the person you were at 16, 20, or even 30. You wont be the same person in the future.
The shoes you wore in high-school were a bad idea, but do you tell every new pair of shoes about them? No, you carry on as if the new shoes are the only shoes you've ever had and ever loved. So why not the same with this silly number?
My only rule is, if I ask you, don't lie. I have a friend with a number in the 40's and a friend with a number is in the 5's and you know what, it doesn't change a thing about them. Just know that if you ask, you need to be prepared for the answer.
You need to know it could go either way and realise that no matter what that number is, there is nothing you can do to change it, so you may as well carry on as if it was one, you.
Are you honest about your number? Or is it something you keep to yourself?
