Love and Romance

[pursuedthestars]

It has been 364 days since our last therapy post on this topic. So hey, why not toss one up before the year anniversary? And make it a little different to boot!

So, let's talk about sex, love and romance! Typically, we just talk about who's doing the deed and who's getting some and who wants to get some but why don't we talk about the other stuff as well. Who's getting courted? Who's getting kissed and holding hands? Who's falling in love and falling out of love? What do you think about all that?

TALK ABOUT IT, FOLKS! Talk about your relationships, your dates, your one night stands, your crushes, your lack of anything, your virginity and how you intend to keep it that way, talk it about it all!

I used to have a great relationship with my boyfriend (sex, so much dirty sex) but then I turned evil and started killing people so now I think the relationship might be a bit strained.

That old story.

[pursuedthestars]

Well, the first part sounds great! I'm proud of you for that, Stiles. The second part...is a bit concerning. Maybe he'll forgive you?

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

I've got nothing going on, which gives me plenty of time for my work. I'm pretty much married to that anyway.

[pursuedthestars]

You got so boring without me there, Jessie!

[pursuedthestars]

I will never admit this out loud to anyone but damn, I am lonely as shit. Iowa sucks and I have no idea what I'm gonna do with my life. So annoying.

[notaweenie.livejournal.com]

Go to college. Bad fucking idea to get lonely in Iowa. Too many attractive sheep.

[notaweenie.livejournal.com]

Shit, dude. Who's got time for fucking when there's science to do?

[pursuedthestars]

Oh, I don't know, people who don't wanna do science? Boring. I prefer people not experiments. They tend to be more interesting and less likely to blow up.

Well, some of them.

I have learned that "friends with benefits" is a very enjoyable thing.



And vampires have a great deal of stamina....

[pursuedthestars]

Yeah, be careful with that FWB thing. Doesn't always work. Feelings are hard to keep out of things with some people.

[likes-ducklings.livejournal.com]

I guess there are cute boys here -- I live with one of them! -- but I just have a hard time seeing anybody...like that. They're all just my friends.

Who has time for that, anyway? I'm only sixteen.

[pursuedthestars]

Sixteen is the prime starting point for that! Start early, find out what you like and go from there. You're probably not gonna see them as friends forever.

[livebytherules.livejournal.com]

I like girls. I like being around girls and I enjoy when a girl likes me but it's getting so hard to tell who likes me and who doesn't. They don't owe me anything but I am just so confused by it all.

I'll get over it.

[whenshewasnice]

Well, I've been stuck incommunicado in space for what feels like forever, and it would be making me sad and lonely if we weren't under so much stress of various kinds, up to and including the recent threat of assassination.

It hasn't been a good time for romance in my life for a while now.

[pursuedthestars]

Hopefully it's worth it, right? End justifies the means?

[suitably_heroic]

I have a weird, confusing thing for this Jedi I'm with and now I can't focus on other women and it is messing up my head in the most thorough way possible.

Yay.

[pursuedthestars]

Wow, that's a new one for you, isn't it? If it's messing with your head, it probably means it's worth it. Sounds weird but yeah, she's getting under your skin.

[flickofthewrist]

Hey, the sex life is great. It's dirty and boundary pushing and fun and adventurous. It's everything else that's confusing as fuck. There are feelings, strong ones, and I really probably focused those on the most complicated person in the universe.

And it's just getting worse which just means I'm probably gonna eat it soon.

[endsthegame]

We're actively working towards having our first child right now, which... there's been a lot of talking.

Communication's important.

[pursuedthestars]

And there's probably a lot to talk about when it comes to having a kid. Not like them just appearing here on the island.

[doesnotkneel]

Ah, I'm still fancy free and I can't say I mind it terribly. No need to go rushin' into things.

[pursuedthestars]

Good attitude to have, man. Always fun to see what's out there before you go diving into things.

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

I can't even look at a girl for five seconds. And I don't know what happens to me when it comes to guys. I'm helpless and hopeless.

[pursuedthestars]

Yeah, you might be, kid. You might be. Good luck with that, though!

[didntchewgrass.livejournal.com]

The last man I was involved with, I turned into a scarecrow. I think I'm going to abstain from any sort of entanglement with another for quite some time.

[pursuedthestars]

That...could certainly lead to some trepidation, yeah. But, maybe it was a one time thing and it won't happen again?

[graveyardwolf.livejournal.com]

One of the people I'm actually trying to sleep with I probably shouldn't sleep with 'cause she's my alpha's ex.

I'm probably still gonna keep on trying anyway.

Other than that, my sex life's actually pretty good, if a little irregular 'cause I come from the worst town on the planet.

[pursuedthestars]

And he's not gonna give you his blessing? The alpha, I mean.

[sharp_as_knives]

The person I'm the most interested in is currently in a high-security mental facility because I framed him for multiple murders, but at least he is speaking to me again, so I'm seeing that as a positive sign.

And I have had a bit of fun here lately. I'm somewhat annoyed at the lack of control those crystals induced, but I can't argue with the results.

[pursuedthestars]

Kind of impossible not to have fun on this island when there are so many weird things that make fun an imperative thing.

[nobloodymessiah.livejournal.com]

I have a boyfriend! It's kind of exhilarating. We kiss rather a lot. It's usually rather enthusiastic.

There hasn't been much of that lately, what with Elsa being a polar bear.

I don't ... I understand the sexual impulse but I doubt I'll be indulging any time soon.

[pursuedthestars]

The sexual impulse indulging is one of the best parts when you're ready, of course. It's nice to feel like that especially when it's with someone you genuinely care about. It'll come.

[furnaceface]

....

Pbbbthssss.

[pursuedthestars]

Seems like you've got other problems, man!

[myownface]

Ha, a whole lot of none of the above. Which isn't so bad. Just, you know, I'm not actively looking, and I don't think there are many people around who are exactly my type these days anyway.

Meh.

[pursuedthestars]

I've found that when you're not looking is when things tend to find you. Might be someone out there for you yet, man.

[notamascot]

No. Uh uh, not happening.

And did I mention, no?

[pursuedthestars]

You did mention it! Any reason why you're so against it?

[wrongkindofsith]

I have Surreal, privacy, and copious free time.

I'm sure you can figure the rest out.

[pursuedthestars]

You're right, I can. No wonder you came back to the island.

[fly-so-serious.livejournal.com]

I am having the time of my fucking life! Seriously, I've got a hot girlfriend with a great sense of humor who's fun to hang out with and even more fun to make out with. You can all be jealous, now.

[whateverknight.livejournal.com]

My love life is, as always, immensely satisfying. Why do you care?

[angelo_wings]

People like talking about sex. Didn't the guys in SeeD ever gossip in the locker room?

[fix-it-guy.livejournal.com]

Not that it's any of your business, because it's not, but right now I need love like I need a hole in the head.

[spin_kick_snap]

Umm...

"This school is filled with very hot people and maybe one day I'll be able to figure out what to do about that ahahahaha yeah right I'm going to go hide in a corner now."

Either a song by Fallout Boy or the title of my autobiography, I don't even know.
