Love v/s Sex

Bless your beautiful hide

Wherever you may be

We haven’t met yet

But I’m willing to bet

That you’re the one for me!

And so goes the song from the Hollywood classic of yesteryears, ‘Seven Brides for Seven Brothers’ and this song is precisely what Love is.

We all know that man is a social being. However man is also a lonely being. (And when I say man, I mean women too). Man longs for company.

Company not just from friends and the family, but from that special person with whom he or she can share those sweet nothings, those simple pleasures and pains, someone with whom he or she can build a whole new life, someone with whom he or she can raise a family of his or her own.

Now this is a fundamental need of man: to find a life mate. And the most popular method used for this is to be in Love. When we talk about Love in the very finest sense of the word, please understand that it should not be viewed as a precursor for sleeping together. It is much more than that. It is the first step towards choosing a life partner.

Let’s face it, of course sex is important, but sex is by far not the most important reason for being in Love.

Maybe during the age of thoughtless youth, when new hormones are being pumped in and out, sex is on every one’s mind. But as one matures (mind you that does not mean growing old and gray ) sex takes the back seat and mutual support, likes and dislikes, cooperation, caring and sharing come to the  forefront. We start thinking about building up a world of our own and we need someone to share it with, and not just someone to sleep with.

Nobody, not one of us, is complete without a partner; our aim should be not finding the right sex partner, but finding the right life partner.

Now what you do and what you want is entirely your business. I don’t want to sound nosey but I would like to draw a fine line between Love and Sex.

Just try to think and differentiate between the two, you will get to know that Love is the most beautiful feeling present on this lovely planet earth, people who are in Love would understand my article but people looking for lust instead won’t understand it.
