    Just how incestuous is KB?

    I got to thinking the other night, when a mate was telling me about his ex brother in law losing his job due to a girl, and now he's with one of her mates. (That's all the detail I'll be giving about that.) It occured to me, that this is how it goes in a lot of circles, a guy or chick will have a go with many people from the circle they socialise in. Particularly round these pages.

    A wee example is another mate of mines ex, has ended up with (however briefly), 2 or 3+++ from here, and another chick ended up doin something similar with some of the same dudes, this all happened in a matter of months. I dont have any problem with that kind of social behavour, we all do what we feel is right. So my question is best put like this, how many, (including current) partners of yours are ex partners of other people on here?

    I can answer none, and although my lady was on kb before we got together, after two years she'd posted like...twice, so we did not meet through this site.

    I'm not trying to judge or poke fun, just curious I guess.

    I've considered this question at length, and my conclusion was that in a social circle with a gender imbalance (as any motorcycling club or forum is bound to have) two things will always occur:

    1. Single individuals will tend to partner up with others they meet in that group, and

    2. The lower proportion of women (in this case) will mean that the likelihood, over time, of those women partnering up with more than one man from that group increases.

    I don't think that (apart from some very notable exceptions, ahem) the actual rate of partner attrition and relationship timespan in such situations is likely to be any different to the norm. It's just that the network is rather small, and so one sees a lot of interconnections forming over time.

    To anyone who finds that distasteful, I would say:

    1. Good luck with your quest for a virgin girlfriend, and

    2. In any case, wouldn't you rather know where she's been?

    kiwibiker is full of love, an disrespect.

    Timespan is irrelivent.

    It was recent events, coupled with my buddy telling about his brother in laws story that got me pondering, but I want to point out again I dont see a problem with it.

    I just happen to know of a lot of relationships that have started on here, so figured I'd poll the group for the purpose of interesting social studies while waiting for TRTNR to get underway.

    All women are worth it, what makes it debatable is, time, place and opportunity!

    True.

    Maybe we need to expand the definition of this forum?

    If you ask any guy or girl that lost someone because of an easy one night thing for shits and giggles, if it was worth it, most will say no I'd think.

    I cant be sure tho, it is not an opinion based on personal experience.

    Flip side could be that a lot of people have/are/do stay with partners who cheat. Read into it what you will.

    I have only cheated once, and the fact I did it made me see I shouldn't be there so I left.
