"What is your view on the relationship between "sex" and "love"?

Guys, it smells like burning toast in here. I think I'm about to have a seizure. If I don't post in the next few minutes, worry about me. Or just call 911. Tell them to bring Poptarts cause I'm guessing a seizure is going to leave me feeling pretty hungry.

You smell burning toast when you're about to have a seizure? Huh, interesting, you learn something new every day.

I'll let you know if I start to feel hungry after my seizure and whether or not Poptarts do fill the void. I'm thiniking hell yes. Those things are delicious.

Maybe poptarts will be the next wonder drug, like asprin. They'll come up with all kinds of things it'll cure, like genital warts.

The boys I pick aren’t good for the long term.
I’m sure it is the same for most people.
Maybe it is a way of protecting yourself from getting too attached.

Hmm... interesting.

I'm not sure Poptarts are going to cure your genital warts brother but I admire your honesty.

Well, someones gonna try it. I think I'll try topical first, and if that doesn't work I'll inject.

Hmm... interesting.

What? Do you always pick the right girls?
Or do you put other things ahead of relationships in order not to make yourself vulnerable?

Lestat's post makes some good points. I'll add though that aside from being unnatural, monogamy in our society is something we all generally want from our partners for a few reasons (feeling wanted, needed,etc and also for security and health concerns, especially these days), and want to give in return if we aren't hypocrites, or maybe some out of fear of social stigmas if they aren't. A deeper commitment to monogamy is made when the brain chemicals of love are thrown into the mix. In this state, cheating would seem absurd, and you only have that one person on your mind. I've often wondered what makes people fall in love; some to do with unique feel-good experiences that the brain connects to a certain person, which releases "love" chemicals. I'm no scientist, but mutual love is about the best thing life has to offer, Its truest form is tough to "find" though. Sex and love are also usually independent of each other, but are naturally best when combined.

I tend to pick the CGWBT type... and I ain't their type. I tend to put school first, and put emphasis on the future often (whether education, money, or who's driving if we're all going to the bar), and girls I tend to date are the ditzy, live-for-the-now type.

Me = positrion, them = electrons.

More definitive definition or description needed.
