Because if he hasn't "dated" in 5 years, it kind of implies that he's been celibate, but then again it could mean he hasn't formally "dated" anyone or
"been in a committed relationship" but that he has hooked up with a girl from time to time. Just curious if people think he's been celibate or hooking up?

But you can date and not have sex. But not to date at all, implies that he maybe sheltering himself from the possibility of experiencing emotional pain. jmo

Maybe that's WHY she sent the rules!

Maybe that's why Josh decided to transfer to keep little brother in line. giggling

Andi choose the type of date she had with Marcus because they both had a fear of heights..

Um they probably show her the dates and she picks which guy she wants to take on it but I doubt she actually picks the dates. This lie detector is 100% something the producers would do. It reeks drama.

Why is it that not dating such a bad thing? It's only hard to believe for those who are used to jumping from one relationship to another and getting no where. People do not take time to get to know their own self anymore, that's why there are so many divorces. I personally know a lot of young Christians who are exhausted with the empty relationships that goes nowhere, and have decided to take time out to get strong in the Lord by strengthening their relationship with God, not engaging in sexual relationships, just like Sean did. Josh might be one of those who don't want to say it, especially after seeing what Sean had to go through, or may be he was busy doing other things, there is more to life than chasing women, you know. JMO
If Andi thinks Josh is lying, why not send him home? But, of course not, that's the man she really wants, and will not let him go. You watch and see. Storyline

I do think not dating at all for five yrs would be a red flag for me but I don't believe it. I'm not Andi. She can believe what she likes.

Aaron mentioned that Josh hasn't dated in a number of years in an interview that was posted today. Beyond that, I haven't seen or heard about any social media evidence of past relationships or ex girlfriends coming forward to call him out. IMO Josh is smart enough to know not to go on national TV and lie.

"Dating" can mean different things for different people and can also have different connotations depending on where they live and their demographics. Here in Nashville, the current term for being in a relationship especially among the younger crowd is that "they are talking." So I don't assume that Josh was lying when he talked about the five year moratorium from dating.

And here's a little bit of trivia: In one of the earlier versions of the DSM (the diagnostic manual used in the U.S. and published by the American Psychiatric Association) promiscuity was defined by having more than 10 sexual partners in a year's time.

Off topic,
Doc, you live in Nashville? Do you know a famous author just moved there from Chicago?

So if you had only 9 partners in a year---it was all cool. Was that a 60's version?

That would be correct - the 10th one led to the scarlet letter. And, yes, I believe it was DSM-II which was published first in 1968.
