Wow! I can sure respect that.ParadoxicalWoman wrote: โ08 Oct 2018, 23:30People having casual sex is no longer surprising to me because this not only happen in the West but also in my country. I still remember vividly about my previous housemate who living this way and proud of it. I don't mind with her lifestyle nor judging her but I told her that it's better for her to not bringing guys when I'm around in the house. However, I will be surprised and give high respect to those who willingly choose sex abstinence before marriage.Sahani Nimandra wrote: โ08 Oct 2018, 08:14Really! What changed your idea about one-night stand, or casual sex?ParadoxicalWoman wrote: โ08 Oct 2018, 07:55 I think I could use this book as my light reading. I can relate with your view on casual sex but since I have read so much chick lits that include casual sex or one night stand thing, I no longer appalled by the idea of it like I used to before. Thanks for the detailed review of this book.

Got caught, eh?As I finalize my story, I couldn't help but laugh at the absurd remark made by my mum saying, "You better not let your daddy read this!" And I believe you can guess why.
I won't let someone caught me reading books with explicit scenes and languages. Else, I might get knocked on my head.
Going back to the topic, I wonder why Nancy gave this book a title "This Nearly Was Mine". Which was nearly hers?

From a married woman's point of view, I should honestly acquiesce to admitting that you're quite right. There are things meant for one's private spaces and audience suitability ratings with age and maturity in mind exist for a reason, indeed. Thank you for your light and candid review.Hey! Don't get me wrong; we were young and wild at our carefree days. Surely you must have encountered such interesting and hot moments in your life, behind closed doors, I guess.

Although your review on the book was outstanding and you did say the characters were as well, I don't think it is one I'll want to read. Don't think the combo of memoirs, one-night stands and rattling off one boyfriend after another sounds appealing to me.
