Ok, I am the world's most hopeful romantic! I've never had sex with anyone I wasn't emotionally attracted to, so even though this is an older article, I believe it's true, especially for me, but maybe it's just my addiction to dopamine *LOL*

Duh.

Hmm, that dope-o-yours is one helluva lucky guy?!

Sex without love is just exercise. Good exercise but exercise just the same.

@Hitch:
He might argue otherwise when I have PMS

@ Rat:
Love is the icing on the cake

Love is stronger than death as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2RtUv_PgGA&feature=related

This could only be news to someone who has never been in love... I'd take love over sex any day

(sadly, my days have neither lately...)

o'rly

I think much has to do with a person's introduction to sex. Being told it is "dirty", being raped or molested, makes it difficult to equate sex with love.
You don't want to do "the dirty" with someone you love.
But after all those, hot, lust-filled, multiple orgasms, one night stands chock full of no inhibitions and wild abandonment, love will win in the end.

Heck Kappy, I still have the above combination with love sugar, except that we go home together at night

@Rat:
On a humorous note, I was only 18 when I met my now husband and we had some really lustful times during which he once made the fatal error of equating our lovemaking with "good exercise". You just do not articulate those kind of thoughts to a young woman in love!

Another silly mistake he made was to buy me a brand new sweeper as my gift on our first Christmas together as husband and wife!!! Can you imagine the error of his ways with a new bride and all??? I was expecting diamonds and I got a Hoover?? *LOL*

I guess been equated with a treadmill or a trampoline would kill the mood faster than a .44!



He probably wanted to make your life easier. We are dumb that way, and clueless to boot. We mean well but...

I hope you stuck that vacuum in the closet and not somewhere else....

Hi Debbs,
Sensed the name of the clipper, before seeing the name, when I had glanced across the head line

Rat,
I had a crappy sweeper at the time, so he was trying to make my life easier! *LOL* I remember complaining at work and the more mature women were saying "Now honey, you are gonna learn that practical gifts like this are so nice" and they were so right! GAWD, I luv appliances now, but back then I had stars in my eyes.

@Mug, thank you sugar

I'm sure that the next time he gave you a washer/dryer with a bouquet of flowers inside.

I never made that mistake again, just nice toys and jewelery, now she wants a Hoover and a weed whacker, scares the shit out of me; but as long as the work gets done and we are still kicking at the end of the day, who cares.LOL LOVE is all that matters

Sex can't keep 2 people together for a long time. Love can. But when both go together, then...
