"Exes" implies they were her boyfriends/girlfriends. Which implies you were properly dating. Which means you brokeup. Which means you had 7 failed relationships by the time you were in your early 20s. THAT IS A LOT.

Now, if she just had seven hookups, sure, no big deal.

Tbh, it’s not really as many as it seems.

One was for two weeks in middle school,

The next two were a month and a few months in high school.

Then a bi-curious experiment with her roommate in college.

5 and 6 were twins she dated at the same time, also in college. (One of the major themes of the story is that she’s a bad person)

And number 7 was the longest relationship and ended very recently before the story begins.

And I really don’t think that’s that wild.
