Does Sex Equal Love?

Sex and love can be separate things to some people. Is it one-time meet-up, or short term NSA type of meet-ups fairly easy to keep separate. Beyond that I personally feel it can be more complicated if trust, feelings shared, and emotional feelings are involved beyond just the movement of one sexual position to the next position and just going through the motions, without feelings or emotional connection to the other party you are meeting up with. I thought when I was younger i could and did do that in one or two relationships. But I learned over time I cannot do that now. It has to be more than such sex for me, in my later years and now.

Love is not part of the equation... a simple way to look at it is we just love having sex, no more no less.

I think it's complex. There's at least a form of love between sexual partners, just not always what we think of as romantic love

I believe if you love someone fully, and maintain honesty about personal desires and or fantasy's, the need for friends with benefits will fall to the way side. Sex might not equal love but great sex come's from love and respect.

Always go with your heart. PaddleMan71's muse group is the link to my erotica fan group.

I have to disagree the absolute best sex was with someone I just met. It has more to do with attitude and what you are willing to do to please a partner. Some people will never be great at sex since they are selfish and don't care about the other person's pleasure. Some people might be willing and put out a great effort but lack experience but they can become great all the time.

I think when people love someone they put on the rose colored glasses and elevate the other person. You overlook their faults, shortcomings, and mistakes. You cloud your perception due to emotion. It feels better to you because you want it to be.

My wife have been happily swinging for 18 years and have been very much in love for 24. Swinging is just that sex nothing more nothing less. For us it is no more than a hand shake. We have discussed it many times that if one of us wants to stop living the lifestyle just say so and we are done and will live a happy life together with just each other.
If any one is tipping a toe in the swinging lifestyle and has to ask that.
My advise to them is DON'T DO IT. It will end badly with jealousy issues. If a person cant discriminate between love and just raw monkey sex the lifestyle is not for them.

Every time I hear a nilla say "humans are not monogamous " I want to puke over the stupidity .

"indiscretion happens" No they dont no one accidentally has sex with someone outside of a relationship.. You're either in a open relationship or you're a cheating coward .

Sex and love are two separate things. I am married and I love my wife, but I have had sex with others for certain reasons. I love my wife, but when it came to having sex with others, that is just what it was, sex. There is one person where thought it would just be sex, but she and I are in love with each other. She knows that I love my wife, but she also knows that I do love her and she loves me.

I also think sex and love are separate things, but it can be very complicated if it is not agreed apon between you and your partner.

Yes Sex and Love are DRASTICALLY different things. Love involves much more closeness connection to your partner even during the physical act.
It is more like an act of creating a union between 2 souls. Taking time for each to become familiar with one another, to feel as if both of you are finally home.
SEX on the other hand is just a physical act of gratification for the body and nothing else.

Sex and Love are two very different things. I love my kids and friends and family but if I am in a relationship and we are exclusive than it will not go any further. I am one if I start dating any man I do not go out on them. If you go out with every Tom, Dick and Harry how can you find the one that is right for you.

The Light is shinning and she is lonely and waiting in the darkness.

Nothing can replace a loving relationship , but as we age we realize sex is not love , it is healthy to have sex and it is a great stress release . Sometime our soul mate can not preform due to age or prostrate problems . I see no problem with having a fwb , as long as hubby knows , and friend knows he is not replacing mate , is discreet and realizes it just sex .

I’ve had sex with so many I lose count but have only been in love with one for the last twenty plus years.

Sex lasts only a few minutes, hours or days but love is more permanent.

Sex equals lust which can create love and feels if you need that out of the relationship. But with out lust there is no chemistry and its just going through the motions

If you truly love your partner, you would never do anything that could hurt him.

The presumption of the poll is that we all have the same defined definition of what is meant by the word "love." In Greek, there are 5 distinct words for love. In English? Well there is "infatuation" which many mistake for "love". What other words do we have? "Affinity?" You have strong desires for someone but does that equal "love?" I have an "affinity" for sports cars but not for the family sedan. There's also, "adoration." I still visit two of my college professors in their senior care homes because I "adore" being with them. I don't worship them but I hold them in the very highest regards.

Back to the Greek. There is eros, sexual love. Philaeo, or brotherly love. Then there is agape, with involves the will over and above the emotions. You speak of monogamy as equal to love. From experience, I would say that more closely aligns with agape than eros. Eros all too quickly (in my circumstance anyway) erodes away. Now there is a mixture of philaeo and agape. There is a mutual acceptance of the commitment regardless of the personal emotional relationship with your partner.

Though to define love is relative, one thing is certain, it didn't come from a rock prior to the "big bang." It came from a Person. Now if you want me to wax eloquent on that subject, perhaps that should be addressed privately so as not to ruffle feathers.

It's all a trade-off, Women trade sex for love, and men trade love for sex.

Sex and making love are different. Sex is a dinner. Making love is a dinner and dessert and a good bottle of wine.

Humans have a physical need for sex. Every human being is going to find other potential partners attractive and sexy and will be at least a little excited at the prospect -- even if s/he doesn't act on it.

Most humans also have a need to make love. A human being in a loving relationship is going to make love and be physically and emotionally satisfied -- maybe enough to pass on other opportunities. But some of those human beings will be able to separate sex from making love and be able to have both that loving relationship and outside sexual adventures.

Polyamory is most likely the default setting for human beings, but culture and religion have beaten that out of most of us. That's unfortunate.
