When someone I know in the local queer community complains about being dateless, I'm tempted to propose meeting for coffee or lunch with someone else I know, at least to broaden the dateless person's pool of fish, so to speak. However, Spouse often warns me to leave well enough alone, claiming that my machinations are more likely to scare someone off (or two someones) than to create a spark. :( Jean Robertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08805088081675965859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-78498258342131087592016-09-28T22:03:57.032-04:002016-09-28T22:03:57.032-04:00I think there can be love without lust, and certai...I think there can be love without lust, and certainly lust without love, but together they are exponentially greater, even when the lust owes a great deal to memory.Sacchi Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10801164916418570059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-59102813237024390472016-09-28T18:28:44.339-04:002016-09-28T18:28:44.339-04:00Awwwwww that story's a cuteness overload!

I think that's because I'm not a very physical person, while still being a strongly sexual person. So lust for me is as much about connection as about physical pleasure.Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-59847131326435850892016-09-27T14:14:44.919-04:002016-09-27T14:14:44.919-04:00It's a great feeling when our matchmaking effo...It's a great feeling when our matchmaking efforts prove successful.Daddy Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12927663248424944119noreply@blogger.com
