[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Acting on your desires doesn't mean you don't love the other person.[/quote]

[b]To me, loving another person means treating them with the dignity and respect that comes with a loving relationship. Acting on your desires without regard for their feelings and trust flies in the face of love. But if you don't believe that then we most certainly have a different concept of grown-up love.[/b] [/quote]

This. And only this, the bold above.

"Acting on your desires" makes it sound as if you have no ability to think before having sex with someone else. No free will. "I can't help myself. I can't control it. But it's only sex, right?" If you feel it's "only" sex with that stranger or coworker hookup, then it's also "only" sex when you have it with the person you claim to love and respect and to whom you claim to be committed. It's no longer an act expressing love and commitment .

Men who claim to love someone but  who won't -- not can't, won't -- be faithful , do not actually love, since genuine adult love involves respect. [/quote]
