| "LOVE" |
""SEX-for-Sex's-Sake" |
| LOVE must have respect to grow |
SEX-for-Sex's Sake does not demand respect in the other
person; in fact, it may cause lack of respect to grow and flourish.
(Everyone wants respect.) |
| LOVE, in order to grow, takes continual attention and hard
work. |
SEX, in and of itself, takes little hard work and needs
only a limited amount of attention temporarily. |
| LOVE is an act of the will that continue on in spite of
little or negative feelings. Love will continue by an act of the will even
if a person doesn't feel like it. |
SEX is an act of the will that is dependent upon feelings.
It is because of deeply aroused feelings, or supposed feelings of pleasure
and intimacy, that one gets involved in sexual activity. |
| LOVE takes a long time to grow and therefore takes
patience and endurance for its maturity. |
SEX can happen very quickly and needs very little time to
evolve. |
| LOVE requires meaningful communication and thoughtful
interaction between two people. |
SEX does not demand that you verbally share with your
partner. |
| LOVE is an art that is learned from others and from the
power of God. It involves many little actions that lead to a meaningful
existence. |
SEX is not a learned art, but is known by natural
instincts, and is one big action that brings about a comprehensive
feeling. |
