Just because i connect sex with love, doesn't mean i think sex is love. I have just "most of the time" had sex with people i "at the time" loved. Not 100% but pretty close... Good morning to you ledbaby, for me it's almost time for goodnight...we must have a big time difference, lol btw, stop trying to make me horny.

I had deep respect for Linda. She had a fascinating life. Photographing all those amazing rock stars. Marrying, loving and performing with a Beatle. I especially admire all the work she did for Animal Rights, something i would devote my time to if i was wealthy. Just a humble Jewish girl...lol. In memory of a wonderful human being:

I never said sex is love. To clarify my feelings, i have always desired to have sex with someone i love. It has much more meaning for ME. But to take it a step farther, if i don't love the person, it just doesn't feel right. I don't feel fulfilled when it's over. Not even if the sex is great. I'm not speaking for anyone else. Now i never said the other person has to love me. They just have to have passion.

thank you very much

lol, good joke. I think she left George prior to Clapton, but i'm not positive... anyway thanks for enjoying my taste in women...i like ones with "class" and Patricia has that.

Eric Clapton Standing at the crossroads, trying to read the signs To tell me which way I should go to find the answer, And all the time I know, Plant your love and let it grow. Let it grow, let it grow, Let it blossom, let it flow. In the sun, the rain, the snow, Love is lovely, let it grow. Looking for a reason to check out of my mind, Trying hard to get a friend that I can count on, But there's nothing left to show, Plant your love and let it grow. Time is getting shorter and there's much for you to do. Only ask and you will get what you are needing, The rest is up to you. Plant your love and let it grow.

Any normal person feels revolted by it. Personally, i hope history never forgets, but i can't stand to discuss such atrocity. Carry on.

I love both these people. I think she was so beautiful in her youth:

I'm still looking for that picture i saw of Joss puking her guts up all over the place, lol. I know it's around here somewhere. Stay tuned, guys, i'll get it for youse!

If i had to analyze why i was never interested in one night stands, it would be for reasons you just mentioned. I have always connected sex to love. I want to have sex with someone i have plans for a future with, and it would be lovely to find the person to have many many years with. My expectations are quite simple and revolve around how i'm cared for, not about a bunch of stuff that really doesn't matter.

Knowing the guy i'm interested in is such a people lover, just makes me feel so goood inside.

My definition of a true "one night stand" is when you sleep with someone you just met, with no intentions of starting a relationship. If you already know someone from school or work as another poster mentioned, you are at least acquaintances, so it depends on how well you know each other. In those instances i would consider it "casual" sex. As the reference to "Looking For Mr. Goodbar" previously mentioned, the perfect example of a one night stand is when you go to a bar/club/etc. and pick someone up for the sole purpose of having sex. Your "intentions" are to just do it and move on. So i can honestly say i have never "picked someone up" for the purpose of having sex for one night. Now you can certainly have sex with someone for the first time who you intend to continue a relationship with, and for some reason you just don't click. Just because you only do it with someone once, doesn't make it a one nighter. For me it's not so much about morals or values, it's about not feeling comfortable in a situation like that. I need to know someone at least a little, no matter how much physical attraction may be involved. Now about that 3 minutes of sex...oh i hope to get at least that much in the near future, lol.

For some (not mentioning whom i refer to, lol) three minutes would be wonderful. Edit: but still not with a "one night stand"

I think it's more than "some" folks who don't engage or never did in sex with strangers they just met.

I agree with you. I think people who make this type of relationship a lifestyle wind up missing out on the beauty of sharing their life with someone they can find fulfillment with. That and the increased risk of picking up unwanted pathogens. I personally have never been involved in a "traditional" one night stand. I had a couple of one time only's with guys I already knew (and was dating) at least, but didn't want to continue to know afterwards, lol. I feel lucky that most of my "experience" has been with people i got to know. I also prefer to really dig the person i'm going to be with. It just doesn't feel right if i don't. Dig or love, whichever...

My question was are you saying all women are players/liars or all MEN and women?

All women or all people?

I enjoyed spending money today Bought the new Incubus CD (hope i can listen to more than the one song i love), Neil Young's Live Rust ( i still have the album) and Jeff Buckley's Grace (lost my old one). Bought lots of nice fruit from the market, included TOMATOES! There was no shortage of fresh tomatoes at my grocery store. Also "very" happy my friend feels better.

Lung cancer, emphysema, heart disease, stroke....sorrry quit!

LOL, that's funny. Well you made your point. You are not the homebody type.
