[QUOTE]Originally posted by nighteyesv: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Raina: [qb]I guess I'm pretty reserved emotionally, I rarely let people get close to me, and I like keeping myself distant.[/qb][/QUOTE]Well, having sex with someone who you are emotionally intimate with is quite literally as close to you as they can get. If you prefer to keep people at arms length then it isn't too much of a surprise that you don't want to have sex with those that you are emotionally intimate with. Sex with others though would not pose a problem since emotionally you're about as far apart as possible even if physically that isn't the case. Sounds to me like you're trying to keep things from becoming complicated. You know from masturbation that sexual gratification doesn't require emotional intimacy so to keep things from getting complicated you keep the two separate. I do the same thing a lot of the time. Nothing wrong with it. A lot of times it makes life simpler to keep the two separate. [/QB][/QUOTE]
