Oh man I watch too much Family Guy.
I visit every now and then. Been busy lately so when I do come in it's usually hitting some threads hard then little or no activity for a while and then hit it again.
As for what this topic has morphed into, I'll give my two cents.

Okay its not only what s below the belt but it does matter. The 3 top reasons for divorce in coupples under 30 are money, adultry, time, and sex in that order.
The top three reasons? Looks more like four. And these are the top reasons according to who? Anyway, I think a lot of people get married who shouldn't, either because they're financially irresponsible, aren't with someone they can really be happy with for the long term, or haven't got a very powerful sense of love. I think the state of many romantic relationships is quite pathetic.

either that or they love the person they are with and don't just want sex from them, you got a point, who doesn't think about sex? I'm just saying that that's not the only thing or nearly the most important, and some guys aren't "playing" the sweet guy thing, maybe that's just who they are. It doesn't mean the person is gay. There really isn't any way to explain it, it's extremely complicated. there really isn't a word for it, "love" just doesn't quite cover it for some reason. Because I love her, well more than that, but you know what I mean, and if she doesn't want to do something, I don't want to. Cause I don't want her do do anything she doesnt want to, and I don't just try to make moves on her or anything like that......and like I said before, I do think about sex, but that is the least of my worries, I persaonally don't mind either way, and just because somebody feels that way, I does not mean that they are gay......I'm gettin sick of people saying that....I respect your opinion, but you're coming on like it's a damn fact, and it isn't, I'm living proof......and if they're gay, the WTF do they have a girlfriend? you think they're gay in denile or sumthin? They're not gay, they actually care about the girls they're with, and not just what's below the belt......
For as much cynicism as I lay out over you and your relationship(s), I understand how you feel and agree with this post, though I do think you tend to 'deify' the object of your passion/obsession a bit much... but I'm not a mind reader.... But yes I will echo the point that for some guys, sex, though wonderful, is far from being the central issue. Despite my high libido, the way I prioritize the nature and activity of a relationship, as it develops is this:
friendship -> love -> sex
Try to avoid the route of:
infatuation -> delusions of 'love' -> sex -> enmity (either from one to another or held by both)
I am completely against sex without love, which some people I know would think odd of me, and those who know me, especially the old-timers in here, know I don't have much luck when it comes to women, so take my 'two cents' for what its worth. I am also completely against love without critical thinking and sensibility. For me it's about meaning, integrity, friendship, and loyalty. Sex, while it is practically a necessity in a love relationship (that has any hope of lasting long-term), it is certainly secondary to those qualities. Oh, and this may sound mean, but to hell with women who are too prudish or selfish to allow a man to express his love and affection for her physically - likewise for a prudish man to his woman.
