    I feel very much like you do, I became sick and had to go to doctors so often I ended up changing to a home based high school. All my friends dropped me like a rock, even if they lived close, or I bumped into them at the mall. They would ignore my attempts at talking to them though phone calls/texts/online, and in person they acted like I didnt exist and they didnt know me. After I got better I moved to a new state, I've been here 5 almost 6 months and havent been able to make a single friend, despite all my trying. Sleezy men and teen guys hit on me all the time (but I'm a lesbian) and I'm just looking for some friends ): At the craft store, at fairs and festivals, even grocery shopping and the mall. After all this I became active in EP for a form of friends. Still alone in life...

    Know what you mean.....the little things....its always the little things that make the difference to me. I have recently left a relatively unaffectionate marriage....very different from the person I am. But I don't think we are alone....unfortunately. I make the most of hugging friends, not the same hahahaha, but the love and affection is helped to stay alive within me, that I do know.....and it really makes a difference to the people I hug! But yeah, what you talk about, I crave that too, with someone I love deeply and them me....its so special that wayx

    My husband doesn't understand the importance of physical contact without sex all the time. Women need to be held and feel loved. My husband will dog this but then got straight to trying to havre sex. If you havre someone who understand this then good luck!

      Just like women don't understand the importance of sex without the emotions. Many ways to look at the same thing.

      You are probably extremely arousing to your husband and he cannot help the effect you have on him. But yes, I find the affection on lots of levels very emotionally and mentally nourishing.

      There are many ways to look at the same thing yobnhojmi and I have to admit from a young age.....15 years old.....us women realising that males take part in sex without any emotion whatsoever was really the first understanding we had of all you guys hahahahaha no offence

      nolegirl2006,

      My wife doesn't understand the importance of physical contact and we go without sex all the time. Ha!
      Having said that, if she suddenly wanted sex right now (i.e. for the first time in years) I wouldn't want it without some show of affection first. Otherwise it would be empty and depressing.

      I don't get the men that want emotionless sex. If my wife gave me a choice now between sex or just holding each other, I'd take the holding.
      Though somehow that seems sad.

    It is very easy to relate to this. When dating my current wife, we used to meet up at a local motel each Sunday morning. She ws seperated I was legally divorced and living back at home see if the marriage could be fixed, didn't work out.

    We would meey up go to the room get naked and snuggle for a few hours to make up for the long week apart. Often times she would fall asleep next to me(tired from caring for her elderly mother and working full time), and I would just watch her sleep and imagine the day when we would be together. There were times when we never even had sex and just holding each other talking , being naked and kissing I will tell you the pleasure felt was sometimes far beyond the actual pleasure of the act and climax, It was connection we have, even today with basically no sex of foreplay or seeing her naked, when the opportunity comes along(rarely) to lie naked feeling her skin is better than any drug and intoxicating to me. I need that so much right now and have thought to myself surely there is some unhappy married woman out there who needs the same to get through the days till hopefully things change.

    Where does one fond such a person? Then I ask myself if it was possible would I really do it. For me that intimate contact from a woman , who responds, makes me feel whole and complete and am willing to give anything anyway to feel it.

    Honestly I want both...love and lust. I have had pure physical relationships and it is very true that they are pretty empty without an emotional connection. However, I have also loved men who did not satisfy me physically. Fortunately I currnently have the best of both worlds- I have a man I love to love and I have a male friend I love to f-ck. Life is good!

      I think outmymind we get so used to protecting ourselves and being on the defensive with the wrong ones that we sometimes just done have the time left to notice the right ones.......we need more right ones...

      I. Have had this discussion so many times that it's almost funny when I here a woman say those words"I jus wish I could find a nice guy" . My response is if you really wanted to find a nice guy you probably already did. Most women have that guy that is a close friend that secretly would do anything for them but they either lack looks or excitement or money so they stay a friend that's always there. Atleast that's what I see from my perspective .

      I do hear you outmymind....but honestly....and I know alot of women go for looks/money/excitement....but I wasn't brought up that way. I have a man now, who has a beautiful loving heart. If I had found him 10 years ago I would have snapped him up. All the other things inconsequential.....with lots of money, it helps, but does not buy you happiness, not me anyway. With love, you can use that beautiful energy to cope with everything else that life slings at you I think......But I do hear you. Unfortunately I know women who go for what you have said...I don't get it. I think they must be very shallow. It wouldn't do for us all to be the same though. But, it wouldn't keep me happy quite honestlyx

    I have a man that was always doing sweet little things like that. and then he moved an hour away for college. I only get to see him once a week for a couple hours. He is still sweet but I get that need for physical contact of love that you are yearning for. It sucks... :/

    Sweet concept..I think most of us long for those small but special moments.

    I seem to get hurt when ever I make an effort to show her she is special to me.

    Maybe thats her way of dealing with life.

    If I come up behind her while she is cooking and nibble her ear...she gets very angry.

    I give her a whole body message, as soon as I am done, she tells me to get out and go pay bills or something.

    All I am saying really is "It's a two way street" The couple have both want to share these feelings.

    My wife, I am sure wants to, but can't.

    As a man, I don't know how to cope with that.

    I want it< I crave it, I can't have it.

    I've had it before, would like it some more, yet it's hard to find and even harder to keep.



    Still I have to admit... to be able to pull her pants down... and go to town, right after that hug from behind would be sweet...

    How right you are Sunshine - sex is a temporary relief which does need releasing, but when it comes down to it, it's the emotional side that really counts.
