What are your preferences, and why should I prefer them over mine? The fact that they are yours is not reason enough, as it's just that, a fact. You don't have to defend or justify them, but if you can't, why have them around?
Can anyone tell me what attraction is? Or even what it's not? Is it biology? Love. Lust. Good. Useful. Distracting. Necessary. Pain. Hope. Any of these, none, or all? Are we really all this insecure? I guess it's just a chance to defy, or prove, that we are.
It makes sense, I suppose, being a man of discrimination, that I constantly see these possibilities, that something might work, that some mutual level of understanding may be present and enjoyable. But what is a possibility without initiative or intent? An acceptable loss. And the contrary? An annoyance. Do you live in the middle?
