>>Sex and love are inexplicably related<<

My wife and I talk about this all the time.

My degrees: I have two sons, 22 and 18-I now have 3 beautiful little girls (5,3,1) and I was dating for quite a while in the 90s.

Most women act on the premise that sex and love are related. Not as many as when I was first single, but it's still rather common.

However, in the service of this premise, most women now "fall in love" just in time to do it by the second or third date.

"Loving" behavior has changed more than sexual behavior.

Of course, "falling in love" this way is not the same as falling in love for real, which takes time and a personal investment. Women who "fall in love" give away something important, and when they do it as part of a narcissistic fantasy (or to get laid, it's still unclear which is more important), only trouble lies ahead.

The boys know that if she says on the second date, "OMG, I am falling so in love with you" that this can only be a short term proposition.

Completely agree. And I am proud to say that I am one of these women.

How true, a sign of emotional immaturity.
