When we talk, I rarely ever listen

I don't think I've ever had the opportunity of indulging in an uninterrupted conversation ( Read more... )

Interruptions of the train of though are what keep our minds from going into short-cut circles or ending up in conceptual dead ends that are the logical consequence of a single viewpoint. Unfortunately, we sometimes lose our train of thought through said interruptions, which is probably the reason why so many people turn to less intellectually challenging activities. Fucking each other's brains out is inherently less frustrating than trying to uphold a polite and respectful conversation.

I never thought of it in that way before, but good point.

Maybe one of the ways we really like to have our thoughts crossed by. At least for me it is. And it's also a way to make sure we'll never find back to the point we started at and look at it the same we did before. Sex is a real mind-opener, in that sense.

Things like down below are the reason I don't list any interests, by the way.

I don't think you're alone in enjoying how sex can change perspectives on some things. Maybe it's a form of communication in itself. What happens before that point and after. How the people change toward you, or how you change in interacting with them after sex.

I had wondered about that and then just put it down to perhaps you not wanting to sum yourself up or offer a description of yourself through the names of a few bands or writers and so on. But now I know the real reason.

And of course what happens between the sheets plays into account a lot... for example: I'm a really bad lay, and I have a really really small penis, which is kind of odd-looking and smells really really really bad... the ladies usually lose all respect for me once they tried out. So, in that sense, it's a good way of keeping them away from me. Of course I have to let them really close first, which sort of makes the whole theory void. Maybe someday I will find a person who will take my heavy bleeding heart and put it somewhere safe and warm.

I am an open book to you. Though I'm not sure whether reading that book is very interesting. Maybe just look at it from the outside. The cover has some foil gold on it, I hear that's supposed to make your teeth tingle when you chew on it.

Why would you want them to stay away? If it was someone you trusted well enough to let them in and get really close to you, enough for you to sleep with, then why allow them to be pushed away?

I'm just trying to understand your reason behind that.

I don't know about chewing on a book, but I find all books to be interesting in their own way.

Don't you ever get scared of closeness?

Sometimes.

But I embrace it, the good that can come from closeness and learn from the pain for next time.

So, what is there to learn? Not to get too close too quickly? That's the same as shying away from proximity out of fear.

Maybe learn how to deal with things better the next time round so they don't end as painfully.

I suppose it depends on the situation.
