I'm a geek

So, I am such a huge nerd that, while updating my sexual history sheet, I decided to create a graphical representation of my sexual history.  It's not as detailed as I'd like, but I haven't decided how many more details I should represent.  So far, it's a bar graph/timeline that shows everyone in my history in chronological order and color-coordinated based on 4 categories:  1) casual/fuckbuddies/one-night-stands that do not include intercourse, 2) relationships that do not include intercourse, 3) casual/fuckbuddies/one-night-stands that do include intercourse and 4) relationships that include intercourse.  I thought about coding for specific activities (since they are included on the list), but the color coding or other forms of grouping would be complicated because of the large number of combinations of activities, if not number of activities themselves.  The timeline is broken up by my age in years, so it's hard to tell some of the chronology because some years I had several partners in one year, but they weren't all concurrent.  Problem is I'm so fuzzy on time, that I'm not sure how to clarify that because I can barely remember the year, let alone the month or date!  So I still have some work to do, but it's a good start.

But yeah, I'm a dork.

That's *wonderfully* geeky! I'd love to see the final product. Mine is pretty simple. I'm not sure how accurate the timeline is.

that's awesome, thanks for sharing! I was considering posting my chart too, but it's very long (as in wide), but I'm not sure about listing the names ... I share names when I trade sexual history with prospective partners, but I'm not sure about posting it on the internet :-)

The first character in each row is an initial. I don't think it matters if you use initials, but some of your partners might. But the reason to use an identifier is to establish who *isn't* who -- to say "no, the person who tied me up and left me in a closet while they went to work three years ago is NOT the person who went down on me on a banquet table in front of my friends while my ears and eyes were covered last year, why on earth would I trust someone who had done the former?", rather than to say "the former was Margaret Snatcher and the latter was Ronald Meghan".

Or at least that's why I would separate them.

yes, that's exactly whey I use identifiers. For convenience's sake, I use their most common and most readily identifiable identifiers ... their name. I considered using initials when I thought of posting it, but initials aren't quite identifiable enough ... too many of them have the same initials, so if I come up with some way to identify them, not as "who they are" but just as a way to keep them individual, I may post my own chart :-)
