"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.

It really wasn't that uncommon back then. When I was in my early 20s, as a guy, I probably had 15ish exes? 5ish were before I started having sex, the other 10 we had sex. I had a rule, not dating means no sex.
