  • Nerve Dating Confession of the Day: “A partner is much more than a lover with fireworks”



    Editor Peter Smith is in charge of wrangling all those Nerve Dating Confessions into one, (relatively) cohesive entity. He’s seen the heartbreaking, the funny, the painfully awkward, and the downright strange (who needs to wear gloves to bed?). But today he forwarded me the first confession that he has termed “epic”:

    "response to: "Most couples I know (especially the ones who live together) seem to be either bored with each other or at each other's throats all the time. I think most people are terrified of being alone and so will settle for anything in order to avoid that. I'd rather be single than end up like that." >>while that may 'seem' true, no one ever knows what 'is' behind closed doors. you're generalizing-even if some fear being alone. my experience is that instant chemistry can burn fast and furious, and burn out. after living with a couple of girls, that didn't light my fire like some prior, and being married for a solid decade, i can tell you this: at 40, i found myself having reflected on it all.. and the 'honeymoon' period of relationships don't last long-we all know that.

  • From the Archives: Lisa Carver asks which is better, married sex or single sex?

     

     

    From The Lisa Files, March 11, 2002

    Having been married my entire adult life, in two more or less open marriages, I'm not too qualified to know the difference between casual and serious sex activities. I mean it with everybody! I once read something Napoleon said about Josephine, to explain why he didn't want to divorce her even though that might mean losing his empire (since she was too old to bear heirs): "But I'm used to her."

    I believe in marriage. I also believe in chance encounters. Napoleon, most of the respondents below and me: a bunch of greedy people who can't choose, doomed to regret.
