I've been talking about this with some people recently. Casual sex. I've always been conflicted about it, because I just don't know how it works. Different people have different philosophies

However, there are inevitably be occasions when you find yourself comparing experiences. And it sometimes happens that the physical intimacy with someone you feel casually about is better than with someone you feel strongly about. It blows. But it does happen.

Wow. That makes me sound like an awful person.

So the casual sexual experience has the potential to devalue other otherwise meaningful sexual experiences by comparison? I suppose I could agree, though I find physical intimacy to be so different in different circumstances to not really do much comparing. Or when comparing not do so on a scale or continuum.

I don't know who I'm kidding. You have a point.

We are human. We can't help but compare. Those that say they don't are either lying to others or themselves. It is natural, and how we develop - especially romatically. If I didn't compare, I would still be looking for a nice mormon boy to date. And where would that get me? Definitely not laid.

No holds barred here.

Yeah, I guess you're right. I guess what I was trying to say earlier was not that I don't compare, but that comparing is not necessarily restricted to a good/bad continuum.

I'm lacking in analogies but I think I'm making the point I want to make.
