  • Nope.

  • No just for now or lately

  • I take it as they aren't sexually active! Respect that because it could mean anything

    • It's not me who doesn't respect it. I'm the one who has been using this phrase, but people never seem to understand what I mean by that. So that's why I'm asking what the usual interpretation of that is... because the people I've come across don't get it.

    • Well I would say if they don't understand or try too then they probably only want one thing and you need to either move on or you know what they want and just make it clear that it's not going to be with you.

    • I haven’t told this to anyone I know personally, just when I go to a doctor’s office. And for some reason, it always causes a lot of confusion. They think I’m saying that I’ve never had sex before.

  • I would think they have had some bad boy friends

  • No, i wouldn't

  • It means that they are currently not having any sexual contact. I’ve also seen the add on question “if no, have you been sexually active in the past?”.

  • Sounds like they just havnt done anything sexual in a while.

  • It can mean both ways. They never had sex and how long they have been without sex. Celibacy

  • I'd take that to mean they aren't currently having sex but not to mean they are a virgin. Perhaps if they are very young, I'd assume they are also a virgin.

  • No, I would say not currently getting their groove on, rather than it meaning they are a Virgin

  • No just not with someone currently.

  • They haven't had sex recently or in a while

    • Thanks for like!

    • I may ask, since?

  • Nope

  • No that doesn't mean they never had sex that just means currently their not having sex

  • Nope

  • Not currently active is how I read it.

  • It could mean they haven’t had sex for a long time.

  • Lol yeah probably, lame.

  • It happens
