you mock my pain?!

I seem to have found a rather compelling explanation for my recent ill health. I have been reading this book that I am rather fond of, called, "If The Buddha Dated." In this book, I came across some crucial information, the accuracy of which I further confirmed in a discussion with a Psychiatrist friend ( Read more... )

love, trust

interesting. I have definitely been uber-healthy since being in love. I wondered why- thought maybe it was more my not going out being crazy all the time and doing bad things. but the whole cuddling thing- yeah, it rules my life. If I don't get adequate cuddle time I am cranky. I also read that women who use barrier contraception are less happy- it seems semen in the vagina makes for happy girlies.

sigh, poor love-sick me... i still crave a hearth and home and a family... woe is me...
the other side of the happiness of fluid bonding is this terrible withdrawl we go through if/when we are deprived of our lover's essence... i guess the higher the risk, the higher the payoff?!!
but yay for cuddling... we are mammals, after all... who need our warm fuzzies!

i am still immersed in poly-hippy/scifi/gamer geek culture, and cuddling continues to place extremely highly as a priority in our activities!

and i hear that cuddle parties are becoming more and more popular at college campuses across the nation (complete with cover charges!)

So that's what that was... I wanted to fluid bond terribly last night. It was so overwhelming that I didn't even want to acknowledge it (by saying it out loud).

i never said is wasn't with you.
i have said that i do not want a primary partner right now in my life, and that it has never worked for me before, for a multitude of reasons.
and actually, i have also said that one of the only reasons i can conceive of the possibility of engaging in a primary relationship is for the purpose of rearing children allow me to clarify: i do not absolutely believe that it is necessary to have a primary partner in order to raise children well; but it is easy to argue that having a primary couple is a beneficial way to raise children.
and although it is certainly not the only way, this society does often make it difficult to do otherwise.

I don't think it is necessary to have a primary for some people to rear children. But if I were to engage in the life-changing, critical role of raising a child(ren), I would want the family to be the priority in my life and my partner's. I would not accept less than that. I think that means I should choose wisely.
