When it is none of their business.

If you are seriously dating it is their business to some small extent, though not on the first couple of dates. And it is also your right to know about theirs: basically what you want to know is: have you dated alot? Who's you date? And why'd you two split up? If you are still single in your late 20s or 30s it will be all people talk about on their dates: How your ex did you wrong. But at this point people mean:are you going to try and do those same things to me? One ex told me about her ex fiance high school gym teacher who didn't use his higher degree for anything and had 20 plus stuffed animal heads on his walls or the guy with turretts syndrom who started screaming during dinner at bennigans. Or her first fiance who neglected to mention his kids, his first wife, or the fact that he never actually divorced her. See, it can be a souce of sympathy and interresting conversation. If you are very uncomfortable just turn the tables start asking about his ex'es. If they've dated hundreds of women, run run away, dozens they have or had a serious problem, figure out what it is, then possibly run away. Try and coax the real break-up reasons from their lying lips....

Because, They Want To Know Who You Were Last With And Make Sure That They Arnt Like Them, Also Your Reputation With Guys, If You Have Had Tonnes Of Guys He'll Think You Just Random With Guys And Never Stay Serious With One....
Hope I Helped This Is A Guys Point Of View....
P.S I Think Its Wrong That You Say Only Boys Ask, Girls Do It Too..... Also When You Say Its None Of Their Business Your Way Off..... Relationships Are About Knowing Everything There Is To Know About Your Partner, Secrets And Such, So Dont Hide Your Feelings Boyfriends And Secrets Because Guys Will Be Scared Off That Your Not Serious Enough....
All Guys Would Agree With Me....

Are you serious? Wow. Why wouldn't they be curious? It's human nature to want to know a variety of things about a potential boy/girlfriend. One of the major aspects of our lives is relationship. Family relationships, romantic relationships, work relationships, etc... they all matter and say a lot about who you are.
Not talking about past relationships at least a little will make you seem as though you're either hiding something or are extremely insecure. Few guys will want to be with someone who takes so much offense to a very natural question.

To enable them to know you better. It's fairly commonplace. But if you think it's none of their business, then you obviously have something to hide.

b/c they want to know if they can out-do the one that got away. It's a big turnoff when guys dwell on past relationships. he should know that and if it makes u uncomfortable, shake him off.

They secretly want to know if there penis is the biggest one you have seen. The answer is always yes, lie if necessary.
